hydraulic

While camping in Bristol Tenn. I was leveling the motorhome when I heard a loud noise under the unit. I got out and found that the entire hydraulic assembly on the drivers side rear had broken loose from the frame and hanging by the hydraulic hoses. The weld consisted of 4 tack welds that...

I'm getting ready to order an Electric Over Hydraulic disk brake system in my Coachman 360IBL. A couple quick questions for those that have this type of system or may know some info: * Most actuators say they need a well ventilated location. I had planned on putting this in the very front of...

My landing gear will not hold its position for more than a few days. You can feel the camper move when the cylinder retracts a bit. Happens when I am moving around.. This week I noticed the camper was moving a bit more and the rear stabilizers were not grounded anymore. I investigated and...

I have to replace/repair a bent hydraulic landing gear leg on my Cardinal 5th wheel. I'm worried that when I disconnect the hydraulic lines I will spill a lot of fluid. Would it reduce fluid loss if I pulled shore power and removed battery connections in an effort to minimize pressure in the...

Help w/2015 Blue Ridge No Power @ hydraulic panel, any suggestions on where to start?

Here is what is in the tool compartment in the floor in front of the passenger seat. It's under a panel that can be removed by hand. (There is nothing under the floor area secured by the screwed-down plastic cover.) The items include the jack, jack handle, lug nut wrench and cross-handle, a...

My fifth wheel hydraulic jacks leak down some (every once in a while)and aren't completely leveling from side to side. Fluid level appears to be ok, any ideas?Thanks

Here is a picture from the new manual that many don't take a close look at until something goes wrong. It is always good to learn about your system and understand how it works. I have also attached a few more NEW documents that Lippert (LCI) has released. Good information to save or print...

Found some fluid on the RV pad and tracked it down today. Found out it was coming out of one of the hydraulic lines for the big foot system. There's a large box underneath just in front of the rear drivers side tires. There are six lines going into it. 3 red and 3 black. I could get a 15 mm...

Hi everyone. Yes, I have the infamous Lippert tubular hydraulic pump for my 2 slideouts. Question; does anyone know if the fluid holding tank should be filled to the top or, should an air space of an inch or more be left for heat expansion? Also, if anyone knows where to get new slide out seals...

I need help locating my resettable fuse/breaker for my hydraulic pump. I don't see it near the pump which is where it was on my old fiver. FR says it is block with two fuses and a grey resettable fuse near the pump. My dealer says it look like a breaker. Last night I looked over the entire...

I've got a 2015 Sunseeker DS3010 with the Quadra Bigfoot leveling system. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to check the hydraulic fluid levels. Can anyone help? Much appreciated....

We were at a trade show last weekend,jacks and slides would not retract after checking everything found the fluid in the tank gone ,found no leaks, so put 3qts in finally got everything working, drove 240 miles home . Put mh in barn the next day about 2 qts of fluid was on concrete, still can't...

Recently asked a question about the NorCold Fridge in sub freezing temperatures and appreciate the responses. Now another related question and cold. The temps here at the S&B has been high of 25 degrees during the day and -11 at night. In the non insulated garage where the MH is stored, the...

I just tried to retract our slides and they would not retract. The hydraulic motor runs fine and will work the level-up system. The weather is warm 71 degrees. There is the same amount of fluid as we have always had there are no leaks. The 12 volt system is putting out the correct voltage...

next question. never had a issue but sounds like the slide motor is straining. is the fluid level supposed to be up to this line. and do i check with slides open or closed. right now in the pic the levelers are down and slides open.

Hello FR Community. Well my '07 385RLTS is finally out of 2 years of storage and is now in my backyard! I ready to begin using it, and I'm looking forward to being a regular on this site. It's got a Lippert Component Inc Hydraulic Power System, and it seems like hydraulic fluid has leaked...

I am a newbie with a 340 Legacy and came with a hydraulic hose with male connect. I don't know where to connect? Ty

Whose bright idea was it to put the hydraulic resivor for the jacks and slides under the motorhome behind the LP tank. Mine was about a quart low from the factory and I had to crawl under the motorhome and use a long funnel attached straight to the quart bottle to fill it. This required sitting...

For those who have through frame hydraulic slides on their RV's, a manual for them is one thing that doesn't come in your pack of manuals from XLR. Adjustments and gear pack replacement are covered which is very helpful as they are the usual cause of hydraulic slide issues. I printed a copy...

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

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...

Anybody have any pictures of the jt strongarms on the 6 point hydraulic level up with the rams?

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...

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...
