It looks like there are several metal smooth tracks that are about 6 inches wide that the rollors on the bottom of the slide ride on. One of mine was warped and coming loose as several of the screws were pulled out (striped). I was able to retract the slide OK but it's at the dealer now getting worked on. Was just curious if anyone else had seen this type of issue before. I looked at several other slides on multiple motorhomes at the Tampa RV show and they either didn't have these tracks or the entire bottom of the slide was sheet metal.

Our Challenger has metal plates under the full wall slide that the rollers ride on. So far no issues.
