    Hydraulic Jacks repair - positive experience

    Just wanted to share a positive experience. My hydraulic jacks failed on my 2015 351DS about a month ago, if anyone remembers me posting about it. Basically, they fully extended (lifted the RV off the ground), and I could not retract no matter what I did. So, I called LCI (Lippert), and talked...

    Hydraulic jacks

    I have a 2007 Georgetown XL 359TS. The front jacks come down, but the rear jacks won't. If I put it on auto, eventually the breaker snaps open. The 2 hydraulic slides work fine, and I can raise the front jacks and lower them when needed. Any Ideas? I am at a campground and have limited internet.

    Forester hydraulic leveling system

    I'm trying to get the price of a new Forester down closer to where I need it. The hydraulic leveling system is almost a $2800 adder. When I first started shopping it was on my must have list along with full body paint. But when I ask myself why I have to have it I don't have a good answer...

    Homemade hydraulic level system

    Has an one done this. It is one of two options I didn't get on my 35qb4. The first was a fire place. That was easy. I have done some research and it appears to be a straight forward hydraulic system. Just need the controller, which would be easy to install. I'm sure I could put the system...

    Orange hydraulic hoses

    Notice a leak under the motorhome. Crawled under and saw fluid on the hoses. The orange hoses are developing bubbles. Coach is 2012 350ts. From reading some posts, Lippert hoses are junk. Does anyone know if Forest River upgraded the orange hoses? Sent from my iPhone using Forest River Forums

    Electric vs. Hydraulic

    We are looking at Cedar Creek 5th Wheels and another brand and one thing I noticed was the CC had hydraulic slides and leveling systems. The other brand uses electric to achieve the same purpose. Why would one be better than the other?

    Hydraulic Jacks

    All, I recently noticed that I lost a plate on the bottom of my front right jack. Sure others have experienced this. Where can I get another plate and how do they connect to the jack (I.e. Pop on, weld or screw)? Thanks in advance for your help. -David
