Hi, all.

I have a 2001 2720QB. NTU (7/18/2015) and first trip ending today.

I've noticed the rear bunk (queen) pulls out really hard, while the front bunk (full) deploys easily.

Inspecting the area where the rear wall of the box meets the bunk slide, it is metal to metal, while the front bunk has a flat plastic slide at the side and under the bed rail , so it acts like a solid slide bearing surface.

Has anyone else had this problem and what remedy did you use? I'm thinking about fashioning new 'bearings' from High Molecular Density Polyethylene plastic.

Comments and suggestions welcome.
