Slide out adjustment

I recently purchased this 2015 3790 RD and the kitchen slide on drivers side makes a clunking noise as it comes close to closing, it looks to me that these pieces on bottom are bent, was wondering if anyone could tell me if I should take apart and straighten or what might have caused this.Thanks

That differently doesn't look right. My recommendation would be to have a pro adjust them. If you don't know what you're doing you risk causing other damage if adjusted improperly. In my case I'd risk taring the lino flooring or the draco. You can search youtube for instructions. Here's some Lippert videos.

I would call Lippert to get a consult from a service rep. Send those pics to the rep to see what he thinks. Your rig is out of warranty - but Lippert has probably seen all sorts of issues and can tell you what to do to correct the bent slide members.

With the amount of bow seen in the adjustment lock plates the vertical height setting has surely changed...

Its a simple fix if you understand how to adjust the hydraulic thru the frame slides... I would first fix the bracket adjustment plates and then measure and adjust vertical height of that slide out...

Adjustable plate if needed..
