Main Slide Trouble

I have a problem with the living room slide in my 2006 3000RK. When I open the slide it moves smoothly for about 8 or 10 inches and then there is a loud clunk, the slide shudders and then continues to extend smoothly the rest of the way. When closing, the pattern is repeated in reverse--smooth til it is almost closed, then the same noise and shudder followed by smoothly closing the rest of the way. It sounds and feels as if a gear tooth has broken off.

I looked under the slide examined and the 2 gear rails that run the width of the underside of the slide and the 2 gears that mesh with the rails -- the teeth appear to be ok.

Any ideas?
