There is NO GOOD reason to extend leveing jacks while in storage. I will give a GOOD reason to leave them retracted while in storage.
IF the system fails while in storage, and you cannot get them retracted. WHAT DO YOU DO???? Kind of hard to drive to the RV shop to fix them:B
Same with Slide rooms. Leave them retracted in storage. Doug
I guess I could have total spring failure where the springs would have lost it's ability to retract from it's stretched position. Since I have two springs on each jack I guess I would have to have both springs fail at the same time. Not sure how a spring fails but I guess it is possible.
Basically, all I have to do with a hydraulic failure is open the valve and let the springs pull the cylinder up, but you already should know this. :B
If my jacks did fail, I would rather find out about it while in storage than on the road.
