At the present time it seems I have another failure of the front jacks myself. The jacks have to be secured in the up position. They now also are not holding when parked. The nose drops in the space of a day or night. The pump is obviously laboring on extension and at times won't retract the legs. I am unsure if it's a valve problem or if the rams have a seal leak that pressurizes both sides of the mechanism. The rear jacks function just fine and the pump has no trouble with them.

I am trying to contact Lippert to get service in the Seattle area now. Has anyone dealt with a service center in this area?
