Awhile back Thor was having issues with their full wall slides with 2 tracks and then changed to 3 tracks i.e. Trax. I was wondering if that resolved the original issues. Any reason to avoid a full wall slide?
In my MH we have two 3trax systems....Luckily, the Thor representative was due to be there on the next Monday, so they tore into it and determined what needed to be replaced. Just hoping this isn't an omen to future issues. Should take delivery next week and will let yall know how it works out.

Thanks! MacDaddy had his sildes rebuilt. Glad I am not front man anymore! My heart had couple lbs scar tissue jacking me up. 7 hours with engine off having it rebuilt.
Get well soon! Hope the ticker is good as new..... and it works much better than your slide does!!!!!!
we are 2 years in and having constant issues- if they don't completely rebuild the slide- don't accept delivery. we've spent $10K and been to three repair shops. we've been told the slide was installed improperly- I'm sorry to say this but you should look for another coach unless the coach goes back to Thor for a complete rebuild.
doesn't the Vroom system use the same track, same motors and the same frame? the only difference we can see is a quick release pull in feature- are we wrong? We have definitely considered it- we've heard good things about them but they are so busy it's hard to get answers. We've also heard that it's hard to get parts. We were quoted $7000 for same time frame. We were under impression it's $4500 per side- and you have to do both sides.

Judge, would have done just that, but the wife's health does not allow us to go more than three hours away max. So were are stuck with the OEM. For those who want to know, the outfit in San Diego is RV Specialists.My understanding is both sides of same slide is $4500 extra would be if rollers or plates roll on need replacement. When current Shwintec system is out ,slide is about 1-1/2” off floor but when retracted or closed there is not 1/4” gap off floor bench the reason the bottom sticks out 3/4” on outside
