Walt,
You are right on about the 'square-up'--even the Rocklers will not operate correctly until the slides are level and even left-to-right. Amazing to look behind the drawers and see what DRV thinks is proper support for the weight of 3 drawer assemblies...

Joe,
I couldn't believe how far off some of them were. I was all set to buy some new ones from Rockler but now all it was, was alignment. One of the draws in the bathroom vanity, the back of the sliders was held together with a rubber band.

Too bad about the rubber bands--guess they bought a bunch of Chinese rubbers....don't know why they wouldn't do the job.

For the drawers--remove them, probably best to get all in the same stack out at same time--get a small mag level and set on the slides to check level. Then measure width of slides using same point at front and rear. It will be the rear that is off-square--you are stuck with the front width. Sometimes, tho, a washer for a spacer may be needed at the front end one side to get the width right--hopefully, they didn't mess that part up.
At least this is how I approached it.
Joe

I used an adjustable carpenters square. With draws removed, squared off with the face of the cabinet. 90 degrees from the sliders to the face of the cabinet, both up and down and sideways. Joe's procedure will work if the trailer is level. Some of mine were so far off, no wonder they didn't soft close. They have to be perfect or the soft close feature won't work.

sunbirds, The only way to view the bedroom and basement tv on satellite is to have a second satellite receiver in the bedroom cabinet. DRV has changed the way the bedroom and basement TV is wired up. I had DRV run an HDMI cable from the TV to the entertainment center. You might be able to fish one through the wall. I had a second satellite receiver so it worked out just fine. Behind the bedroom TV are the connections to the portable dish and roof dish hookups. There is also a connection there for the basement TV hooked up to the satellite receiver. Walt

sunbirds, I was mistaken. The basement tv connector is connected to the antenna. You can go to the entertainment center and behind the Sony receiver there is a gray wire connected to a splitter, that is the basement tv wire. I disconnected this gray wire from the splitter and connected it to the satellite receiver in the entertainment cabinet. Now I have satellite in the basement.

"anyone know if Lippert fixed the jack fail on the 2019 s"

They have been "FIXED" since 2017 model year.

Does "since 2017 model year" include early 2017's?

Knock on wood my 2019, with the new controller, is working as it should except for hooking back up. It sets the trailer height a little high. Other than that I like the level-up much better than the 2010 version I had before. Push the button and stand back!!!

I have found that the 'auto hitch' on either the old or new style does lift about an inch higher then my unhook height.
