I've had constant problems with the hydraulics on my rig. I've had the upgrade done and still the problems persist. Most of them seem to be from trapped air in the system as the bubble moves. The last one was the main jacks refusing to lift the front end. I changed to a nose up space and was able to lower the nose to level fine. Later, a day after we were set up I started to trouble shoot the system and the front jacks worked fine. The bubble may have moved away from the jacks since the slides were out. Freaking gremlins!

I did note that a couple days before both of the front jacks had dropped a bit during travel. That was a new issue for us. Previously we have had slides open about an inch if we didn't "tweak" them closed after raising the jacks prior to leaving.

With the failures of the system we've had and the upgrade, we are now on our 4th hydraulic pump.
