FWS Adjustment

I know there have been numerous threads about FWS issues and i have been reading them trying to find an answer to my question without success. I have a 2015 DSDP 4018 and have always had the proper (if that can be said) reveal. Today, after i pulled in the FWS I went out and the upper left hand corner of the slide is closed with out a gap.

My question is, how can this be adjusted once it has happened? I have removed all the bolts and put locktite and Nord lock washers in the past 90 days. I'm sure it isn't loose.

That gap, or reveal, will change based on coach movement.

To see the change, level the coach and then go look at it. If the gap is good, then you can try returning to ride height and pull forward and then backup to ensure to frame pressure exists.

I have a few places where the change in grade and the radius required to back in caused frame pressure that was released by a 20 ft forward and then reversed to same spot.
