Tom,
Take a look at the opening and the slide walls to see if there are any close places. I had a pretty tight corner, that was made tighter when I shimmed the slide pads to level the slide. The slide would hit the outside wall if the coach were twisted. I had to relieve an 1/8 inch in one corner to prevent potential contact.
Not saying this is a widespread problem, but it doesn't cost anything to look for rubbed areas while you have the slide out. Relieving that area with the slide seal just on the other side of the wall was a nerve wracking day.
