Above floor slide out.

Our dinette slide had a problem last trip out. The slide starts out correctly but in about three inches the rear corner (inside) stops, as if it's hitting something. I think it's a Lippert product but I don't have a real drawing of the construction. I removed the drawer under the bench and the wooden face of the bench for a chance to see the problem. Using my flexible inspection light I can see the pinion is not meshing with the teeth on the rack. The set screw shows a lot of threads so it may be loose. As the motor runs, the pinion teeth hit the end of a bolt, blocking further movement. Electrics are fine, but the issue is how to get the pinion back in position, with so little space to work in, under the slide but above the MoHo floor.
Anybody have experience with an above floor system?
