    Hydraulic slideouts

    I have a 2011 Cedar Creek Silverback RE29. The unit has 3 hydraulic slideouts and I have no instruction manual or operating manual. Does anyone know where I can obtain either or both manuals. Thanks

    2006 FR Georgetown 370XL-- Hydraulic Jack Slips Down

    Left rear hydraulic jack slips-down on its own 2-3" after engine turned off for 30-40 minutes. Not sure what might happen when I drive it. It does retract correctly when instructed. It is a Lippert system and they no longer stock similar size and mounting holes dimensions. Lippert says there...

    Rust Prevention on Leveler Hydraulic fittings and pump

    I have been careful with our 2015 335DS, but some travelling during winter has left rust on the hydraulic pump motor, pump and metal hydraulic line fittings. They apparently have so protection from rust and after living with a 17 year old Bounder I would like to prevent future problems. The...

    Lippert hydraulic jack issues

    I have noticed recently that when I un hitch my truck, the unit is slowly dropping. The trailer is not leveled with all 6 jacks, just the two up front are down to allow my truck to pull away. I have noticed 1.5 inches over 2 weeks. I took my trailer home and have it set up out front and I have...

    Hydraulic Fluid

    Have my rv winterized in the mountains of GA 65 miles from home. * before heading up there yesterday to winterize the unit, I read all of the manual data provided when I bought the 2015 Silverback. I "believe" it said when capping off the hydraulic system, use a specific grade of transmission...

    Hydraulic versus electric MC lifts

    I am planning to get a MC lift for a motorhome next year. I have pretty much decided on the Hydralift because it requires no electricity to operate which is ideal for boondocking. Is there a really good reason to go with an electric lift?

    2nd hydraulic line failure

    While driving on our latest trip, we stopped for lunch, and when I started up, the jack pump started running. I remembered the scenario from the last event and sure enough all the fluid was on the ground under the left rear jack. This is the 2nd hose to fail on that jack. Again, the hose pulled...

    Lippert 6 Point “Level Up” Automatic Hydraulic Leveling System Question

    New to using this system. Parked on road in front of house and used the auto level (first time). When it finished, the three jacks on the curb side were down and on the road side the front and back were down solid. The middle jack on the road side was up about an inch. Could not figure...

    Adding a Second Hydraulic Ram to Kitchen Slide

    I have a 2008 FR Berkshire 390QS. After purchasing it used, I realized the kitchen slide had been repaired at some point. It uses one hydraulic ram and a system including a transfer shaft/rack and pinion gears to transfer the motion from the rear slide post (with the hyd ram) to the front...

    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.

    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
