Schwintek slide shoe popped out -- Difficult repair or not?

[BobV]

2015 Forest River Forester 3171ds bunk/dresser slide-out.

Got a photo showing the bearing block shoe had popped out of the gear rack on upper right of slide-out.

How difficult is this repair?

Assuming have to manhandle the slide out part ways, take slide mechanism off that side and reinstall with new bearing block.

I've not done it, but I googled "schwintek bearing block replacement" and got a lot of hits.

After working inside the RV pulling trim pieces off I was able to see the Bearing block from the inside.

Completely missing the V-roller and the bearing block shoe snapped off and is sitting in the gear track.

I now have the Variant code sticker number to call Lippert for a replacement parts kit.

Lippert has a good video on removal and replacement of the Schwintek gear racks from one side of slideout. It will be a little tricky because of clearances but seems like it is a possible DIY job. Otherwise I will schedule a mobile RV tech.
