    Bowed hydraulic cylinder

    Lately I have noticed a grinding noise associated with a considerable delay In movement when extending or retracting the main living room slide on our 2009 379xl.

    Georgetown LP and Hydraulics location

    We are looking to buy our first MH after years of pop up and tent camping. We were looking at Georgetowns on line. Specifically the 310 DS. From what I've seen it looks like both the LP tank and hydraulics are just sort of hanging in the breeze. Is it just me or does that not seem like the...

    Hydraulic slides Fourth slide "trips"

    Not sure if this is just a temperature issue but our Sierra has four slides and not all the time but randomly the forth slide will stop coming in. We wait 5 seconds then it will restart. It sounds like something trips near the resevoir. If is was a temperature issure I would suspect none of the...

    Hydraulic Lift Support Arm

    Because of the rear slideout the 24R does not have a latch to hold the rear compartment door open. I'm think of adding a small Hydraulic Lift Support Arm. Has anyone done that? If so, what size did you use? Thanks, Jim

    Hydraulic slides...QUESTION

    I've seen in other posts where folks said if you only want a certain slide to come out first, hold pressure against the slide that normally comes out first and the next lightest slide would come out first. So, my FW is up for the winter under the shed with the cover over it. I want to open only...
