It is covered by weather stripping but have not removed it because the ends of it looks to run into the trailer. I have viewed some videos installing rollers if that is the solution. Are the slide cables supposed to hold the slide up? Videos on cable adjustments indicate my trailer tensions are within tolerances. The slide moves in and out smoothly. Thanks for any help offered

I have the exact same problem. Kitchen floor is not level. When slide goes over the apex, it tilts downward.
The floor dropped on the outer side because of weight of the slide bouncing on the slide wear bar when traveling down the road. Keystone was aware of this issue since they added support brackets to the floor that extends over the frame.
Unfortunately, both of my brackets failed, thus allowing the floor to sag. Once the floor sags, you can't straighten it. I fabricated some supports out of scrap 1 inch steel square tube to prevent further sagging. Note that the factory brackets are not attached to the floor, just to the frame I Beam.
