On the T40B, under the slide when out centered where the mechanical track,there is a 4 inch opening either they forgot a flap seal or something else? But cold or hot air and light is coming thru the slots of the bed box into the rv is there a cure for this?

Russ, I also posted on gsowners. Is this situation when the slide is in? We had light coming in at the bottom right of the bed slide near the floor. Occured when the slide was in and was caused by the exterior rubber seal getting twisted. Once it was pulled out and flush the area was sealed. Charlie

Hyall, you can install a piece of soft foam rubber around the track to seal out the light and air. You will need to cut it to conform around things to make it as tight as possible. I am not sure if GS does this at the factory during production. Good luck and keep us posted on this. Thanks.

My dealer fixed a similar issue on my GS park trailer while it was still on his lot. He came on-site to fix it at a neighbor's camper as it was considered a warranty issue.
