Anybody know how to free up the top rail stop on my cabin door? Door only opens up 3/4 way than it did . After researching the problem it appears the top rail stop has somehow moved to the left of it s correct position and is preventing the door from moving all the way to the right and full open position. thanks
 
I had the same issue on my 270. I herd its a real process to remove the door and fix the slider the "right way" I came up with a solution that worked for me. Def took a bit of patience but it worked very well and the door slid freely for the following couple months until sandy claimed her. I basically used a metal coat hanger with measurements on it to pull thesliders into the position I wanted and and then used the measurements on the coat hanger to mark the top side of the door. Then drilled and countersunk through the top of the door and used 2 stainless pan head screws to fasten the sliders to the door. I countersunk a little deeper then the door and found a caulk that was very close to the color of the door. Looked good and worked very well. I wrote up a post of step by step instructions but im not very good at finding things I posted so maybe you will have better luck finding it.
