Did you read the information in the link I provided? It does mention how to adjust the slide for level...this may also address how the slide room contacts the main body as it closes.

The slide drifting out over time is not supposed to happen, but if the top contacts the motor home frame well before the bottom that would put a lot of stress on the room to settle back to where it would have no added structural distortion.

If the hydraulic rams leak at the piston seals then the room could drift also -- this is addressed in the testing of the hydraulics -- look on page 27.

Hey Chuck,

Over the past week, I noticed the main slide in my T40A drifting out after I initially retract it. After I pull it back in, it's usually good. I had my entire hydraulic manifold and hoses replaced when I upgraded my auto-leveling system. Is that indicative of air in the system? I think so but wanted to confirm. I'll take it back to the shop that did the replacement and have them check for leaks and re-bleed.

Happy Holidays!
