Wow Mark,
I was beginning to think I was the only person having this issue, thus I haven't been on this site since probably last December...anyway that said I thought I'd somewhat solved the problem, by one adjusting the bolts at the top of the upright support arm upon which the slide rails travel on and second replacing the screws with larger/ longer in hopes to grab the back side of the aluminum frame, but low and behold after traveling south this past winter it has once again begun to separate. I believe this most likely happened as a result of the bed slide bouncing (in closed position) while traveling over road bumps. I did see somewhere a suggestion from someone that using a rivet nut may work better to secure walls, as aluminum being soft that screw under pressure/ weight may pull back out over time. This is diffidently a manufacture flaw as were apparently not the only ones with this issue, as the structure/ framing of the back wall isn't beefy enough to support the weight of the slide...especially when these thing come out of the factory with the slides not adjusted properly, this was somewhat confirmed by the slide manufacture Lippert. Anyway that said and knowing that misery loves company, if you still have photos of your situation post them.
Thanks so much for your responding and hopefully your back on the road again!
Gary
