We are on our trip to Alaska..if anyone wants to test their coach for loose bolts, drawers and/or loose anything...try the AlCan highway.
I can not believe how the roads are repaired. Seems like that they lay down a layer of tar/oil and spread a layer of 1/4 to 3/8 inch of rocks. Smash them down into this messy substance and wait for all the cars and trucks to spread out any extra. The post a speed limit of about 35 MPH, but the large truck do about 60 (it seems) and toss rocks every where, especially on your windshield.
Now my question...
Found out that when it gets rough...we have a couple of drawers that want to slide out....I can not determine what keeps the drawers in. Is it those little black tabs on the front of the drawer or there is something else that keeps them secure?
Been reading here about others having problems with their front air...turned mine on after one of these 10 miles of rocks and dust and it did not work...thought "DANG" now mine. Opened up the back and found that I threw the A/C belt, because a rock got between the belt and pulley. The rock wedged itself between the belt and pulley and forced the belt off. It was laying in the rear area of the motor. Took the rock out and re-installed the belt and all is well.

The easiest fix (via Davis cabinets) is to use a shim (about the size of a business card folded over once or twice) between the guide and the cabinet wall. If that doesn't work for you, then the slides are probably "Accuride" and they will replace free of charge when you contact them. Hope the easy fix works,

I would also guess that they are from Accuride. There is a gray plastic clip with spring that is on the end of the drawer slide. It is called a self close mechanism and they will send you new ones at no charge.
The best way to get to them is google accuride and e-mail their tech line with your problem. They wanted me to e-mail a picture of the slide and the rear of the slide (where the gray plastic clip is located).
Ask for extra as you will need them it is something that wears out with time.
