Rv Slide Out Dragging On Floor Rollers Under Cabinet

Found slide support rollers have dug into sub floor where slide rides on support rollers when retracted.

Rv slide out dragging on floor rollers under cabinet. You have to remove the trash bin to get to the floor where the rollers are. This causes slide to drop down the last couple of inches of travel creating drag stalls out which then rips column out of coach. We have noticed some slight markings in the tile from where the slide rollers have traveled in and out. For some rvs the rollers are under your kitchen cabinets for kitchen slide outs.

I m hoping that the slide doesn t have to be removed to access the roller. To solve this issue you can remove some of the carpet and replace it with slide out slickers. Rv slide dragging on floor it may seem odd but some slide outs are designed to slide on the factory installed carpet. If you slide the section about 2 3 of the way out then you can get better access and use a 2 by 6 to give you the lift you need to work.

We ve also seen this in many our friends used rvs of various brands. More reading and research. Recently had the carpet out and there isn t any access from the inside. This leads me to believe that this is not uncommon and is just part of the normal wear and tear in an rv depending upon the severity of the marking or scratching of the floor over time.

Generally if there s enough play to adjust away from the floor you ve probably got a leak up there anyway. If you remove that carpet and replace it with vinyl flooring then the slide out may drag across the floor. Might be looking at adding metal plates under rollers.
