First RV and a few questions
For the jacks, ATF is required.
The retract problem is common, comes from non-use. Clean the rams on the jacks with WD-40 or whatever your favorite is, and wipe clean. The jacks have rams to lift the coach, and rams to kick the rams down into the vertical position, be sure to service both. More important is the bearing at the top of the kick-down ram, clean and lubricate it until it spins freely, this will greatly help the retraction. Last of all is the springs, if they're weak they can be replaced. The line under the sink is a low-point drain when winterizing, and leads to the outside faucet which is (was?) just forward of the entrance step in the LP compartment (side bath). - Jeff Miller http://www.wanderlodge.net http://www.millercoachworks.com --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "ttikalsky" wrote: > > Thanks for the help and a few more questions. > > Do any retail stores sell the HWH fluid? > > The two rear jacks to not retract very well, about 3-4 inches of the > ram is exposed.
