Slideout...

Hi all, :'( phew.... after a few hours, removal, bashed knuckles, strip down, repair and reinstalation, more bashed knuckles, 🇧🇭 the bedroom slide out is doing what it should...sliding out and, more importantly, sliding back in !!! :up: Never was there a more true saying than "the more there is , the more there is to go wrong" ! Turned out to be a bearing that had worked loose and was binding on the track (must"ve been doing it for a while) until it became siezed when I needed to put the slide room back in and the only way to get at it was to totally strip it .Anyhow, just saying, if anyone wants advice on a slide out mechanism, I"m yer" fella, ha ha :lol: P.S. Thank f... it didn"t happen in France......! :'(

:up: Thanks mate, next time I"ll give you a shout, as I said, it was a bugger and very heavy. I had visions of it being worse (very expensive) than it was, just goes to show that some times you just have to get "stuck in" ! Oh yeah, and take photos so you know what goes where..!! :lol:
