Slide out problem

A slide on my 2008 Carriage Cameo F34ck3 has an issue. Hope I'm using the right terms to describe. One of the 2 "rack gears" or I've heard them referred to as Ram gears (the long flat gears (2) under each slide. The clearance between one of the gears teeth and the trim at the bottom of the hole in the side of the RV is less than 1/8th inch while the other clears by a good inch. Questions:
A. Is there an adjustment for this?
B. Or, is this a warn part that can be replaced? If so, who made this slide assembly and where can I order parts?
I thought it could be metal fatigue but that's only a guess. I've seen the same issue on other Carraige units.

I can't find any maker or model number on the slide mechanism and would really like to know who supplied them to Carraige.
I have replaced the gear sets in the slide a few years ago and got them from RBW. But the know nothing about this part of the slide system.

This issue is occurring on 2 of the 3 slides. The 3rd slide is the bedroom slide and has a different mechanism.

If anyone has fixed this problem I'd like to hear from you. Thanks in advance.
