Description of the problem	While traveling through ms it was brought to our attention that something was rubbing on the tire on our fifth wheel. Upon inspection we could see a bolt and a piece of metal, which were attached to the slide unit, rubbing against the tire. We proceeded to a rv center in hammond, la to have further inspection on this issue. It was determined that the bolt would have to be shortened and the ram face would have to be cut back to allow for free rotation and reduce the risk of damage to the tire. They cut the bolt and rethreaded it to where it was shortened enough not to compromise the tire. They also cut back the ram face end to eliminate the chance of it rubbing the tire any further. While they were repairing the tire issue they also discovered that the wiring harness had been rubbed through and had exposed the bare wires. The exposed wiring had to be cut out and replaced. The new wiring and harness were reattached in a more secure fashion. Again, we endured stress, delay, expense and apprehension with this 5th wheel. We are always waiting for the next shoe to drop! What next? Incident #4 of 5 we will be posting. Serial#: rl1844723 unit model#: 8289ws
