golf_bears, sorry to hear you're plagued with this problem. From your post it sounds like you've already been in contact with Lippert to get the repairs, so it may be a moot point to discuss troubleshooting where the leaks are, since Lippert will do that once they have it. As for preventing the jacks from dropping and contacting the ground while the RV is being towed, the previous owner of our rig had someone weld some steel rings at the top and bottom of the front jacks and used a short section of chain with a carabiner at one end to attach the chain to the lower leg section once they were retracted. That was and is enough to hold the jack(s) up. The 2 photos I've attached show how this was done on our rig. I would recommend these "safety chains" be installed on both front jacks, just in case the one that hasn't been leaking down decides to change its behavior while you're on the road. Even if you have to have a welding shop do this it shouldn't take long for them to do the job. Hope this helps and you get to IN in time and safely.

Have a safe journey.
