Mike,
It was the bulb seal--both the upper corners were cut thru the 'bulb' part at the curve. Could see signs of rubbing as the slide moved up/down when traveling.
Good idea about checking the tightness of the slide at some point while traveling--hadn't thought about it that way.
Thanks,
Joe
Seal was listed at $2.85/ft--needed little over 26' to go around the bedroom area. The old one also had a 1" gap at the bottom where the ends did not meet. Hopefully, I have this problem solved--and waiting for the next one to pop up.
