I was bringing the bedroom slide out and heard an awful sound of something cracking and crunching.
I stopped what I was doing and started looking for the cause. Eventually, I lifted the bed and the fresh water tank access board on the bed and found the bottom 1/8 board that was stapled to the top piece of plywood had ripped on one end as in the picture.
Once I lifted it out of the way, I finished sending the slide out with no more problems.
The question is, can I totally remove the bottom board that is covering where the carpet is folded over and glued, or do I need to have it replaced? See picture
