Slide adjutment

I have the 2015 Aspire 44u the fridge side of slide out is lower than the fire place side. Trying to locate the adjustment to level it. The rails are almost laying on the outside trim when extended, and a gap on the other end. Has anyone corrected this themselves and how?

If you contact Newmar they will send you instructions and offer advice for your unit. Usually there is a saddle adjustment but these normally don't need to be touched after the factory install. Could be a broken roller under the slide letting one end drop.

Jerry,

Check to see if that slide has these two lag bolts on each end of the slide. They are visible from underneath the slide looking outward. If these bolts are missing that explains why your slide is slipping down.

I thought that also, but I don't see any scratches or marks on the tile floor to indicate a roller problem. Hard to see because that wheel is the one under the fridge.

These are the bolts that hold the elevation of the slide. You will have to remove these two lag screws (while supporting the slide with 2x4's and a floor jack). Once removed the center bolt on the slide arm can be loosened with an open ended wrench jacked up to where the slide should be and then tightened. New holes will need to be drilled for the two lag screws to hold the slide in the new position.

I adjusted my large slide on the passenger side with the help of PJ. I used a 2x4 with a leg to make a T brace. I used a car jack, the kind you pump. Call the factory, you can make the adjustment, with their help.

That is what I did but thought I had to adjust the opposite side of what was hitting.
