Thanks for the reply about the full body slide. My reason for asking that is when I bought mine I loved the extra space and layout obtained by that slide. I just couldn't get past the thought of those little motors moving that huge slide without having issues. My wife wanted the large slide and pointed out that the big diesel motorhomes had them without issue. The difference is obvious... hydraulic versus small electric motors that had to be in sync.

Anyway after much research I decided on 2 slides instead of one large slide and NO plumbing in the slides due to weight and flexing of drains, etc. All of the horror stories I hear seem to be in full body slides and/or slides with plumbing.

It is frustrating that a manufacturer will build and sell a product that seems to be destined to have problems because of design. But that is where you are.

I am sooo sorry for the problems you are experiencing. It confirms my decision to never buy a gasser with full body slide.
