slide adjustment?

Hi, I have a x23b and it looks like the slide is not even when it's all the way out. It appears towards the front it is tight and towards the back of the camper it is just touching the wall. I haven't even looked at it yet. Figure you guys would give me some good thoughts of what to look for or even if I can adjust it.
Thanks

If I recall (BIL had a 23B) you have a sofa slide and isn't as deep as the standard TT slides. Most folks have a RV technician perform slide adjustments because not all slides are created equal, and if adjusted incorrectly damage can be incurred.

The following link describes a typical slide adjustment, but may not represent the same hardware mechanism that the 23B uses;

Here's a slide adjustment video by Lippert Components who manufactures many slides for the RV industry (may not represent the 23B slide mechanism):



Oh, I believe the 23B utilizes a "transit bar", be sure to use it whenever the slide is closed to avoid any slide movement during transit.

Actually it looks like the whole slide twist a little bit when it comes into contact with the wall. I had been running the slide out until it clicks but if u do that it twists the whole slide pulling the top left corner away from the wall a bit. I guess I'll just stop it shy of that point.
