New Slide questions - Leveling front to back

Bechard · 09-16-2020, 07:06 AM

Hi folks!

We just upgraded from our 22' Bullet Crossfire 2200BH to a 29' Passport 2950BH and have a slide for the first time. I have one big question, but any other information I should know would be appreciated.

Can I open and close my slide if I'm not 100% level front to back? My Passport is cable driven, and due to the grade of my driveway, I can't get perfectly level. I'm usually about 5-10 degrees off level front to back.

Thanks folks!

Yep.

Level is better, and side-to-side more important than front/back, but my drive slopes quite a bit, and no issues with this or previous non-cable slides.

Thanks, that'sa big relief. My driveway is completely level side to side, it was just front to back that concerned me.

Probably shouldn't run the fridge for a prolonged time in that unlevel state...

I've always had the fridge on when plugged into shore power in my driveway from spring to fall while we're not out camping. Fridge has always been on and has never been an issue for me.

I guess we'll see how the new one is. Previously we had the 6 cuft Dometic, but now we're going to have the 8 cuft.
