Topic: Adding Outrigger Supports Posted: 10 Jul 2023 at 8:46am |
I have the typical floor / frame issue on the slide out side. I've watched the You Tube videos and read the Forum posts - but my question is shouldn't the wall be jacked up simultaneously at the two locations where the inner aluminum frame wall supports (studs) are located on either side of the slide out? I've seen others jack from other points but doesn't that run the risk of distorting the inner frame? |

If it's not sagging, there is probably no need to jack it up. You should check the level of the floor for each outrigger and jack up if necessary. If top of the outrigger is not flush or parallel, then jacking will probably be needed.

It is sagging. I have approx. 1in+ out of square on the distance from the frame to the outside of the wall. The slider still works fine - but there is sag.
