Front slide on 2002 Magna the rear top of slide is app half inch lower than the front, is this an adjustment or red flag. It works fine just replaced rear slide hose and replaced seal with sica caulk and no seal. Any suggestions.

Thanks
2002 Magna

Howdy Carl,

I just finished adjusting my 2003 Bedroom (easy job) and Living room slides.
My manual was missing the pages with this info!!

Greg at country coach sent me the missing pages for a nominal fee.

There are rollers, similar to what you would see on a boat trailer, under the kitchen sink and the couch supporting the forward and aft ends of the slide. These are adjusted by releasing a lock nut and turning the bolt in or out to raise or lower the slide. I used the gap at the of of the slide for reference. I had to remove a piece of carpeted molding at the front end and a wood trim piece at the rear for access, its a long reach...Then there is a center support of slightly different design but also adjusted by screwing the adjusting bolts in or out.
Caution, if your slide hits the coach walls when sliding in, it will crack the slide wall or cause it to come unglued from the slide wall framing ( why mine needed to be raised.

Getting access is the hardest part of the job.
