Hi,
The FWS on our 2010 Cameo 36FWS is tilted in on the top, is there any adjustment to counteract that?
It appears to be out about 2-3″ in at the top compared to the bottom, a little more at the back, a little less at the front.
Thanks,
Tim

Tim,
Jack Ramsey documented with photos and lengthy description the real fix for this. The cabinet floor bottom under the garbage can is supposed to support a roller that carries the weight of the wall when in. A design flaw allows that bottom to separate from the aluminum slide framing. Piss poor design, but a pretty easy fix even for this 72 year old that had tried a lot of other ideas to fix this during the previous 10 years. Sure wish Jack was around 10 years earlier.
He may chime in. but a search under “on the outside” “slides” should find that very helpful string.

Tim,
Jack’s writeup is at:
2009 Carri-Lite 36Max1 Full wall slide after transport now “stuck”
photos and notes from June 1, 2022 show what caused the massive but now repaired damage to the cabinetry. Earlier posts show the tipped in slide from the outside ignored and it will only get worse, especially if you travel at all. If it will be parked permanently with just a few ins and outs a year probably of lesser importance

Thanks John and Jack, very informative and great guide on where to look. We don’t travel a lot anymore but I’ve had the slide in and out quite a bit this year from the travels we have taken.
