2003 Sunnybrook 34' 5th wheel 2 large side slides will not close at top by about 5 inches. Bottom closes just not the top. Trailers has set open for about 3 years. Everything worked but did not close at top. any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks

Dirt and rust buildup on the slide mechanisn is preventing the slides from closing completely. If you were to watch a properly running slide, they in the last inch or so twist in to fully close.

You probably have already, but if not, check the top of the slides for obstructions such as pine straw, leaves, sticks, etc.
