Problems with LCI hydraulic jacks

I have had problems three separate times with LCI jacks. Seems the hydraulic hoses keep breaking. Have left me stuck twice. Anyone with similar issues?

  • Call Winne and ask them if they use LCI hoses or they make their own. Doug
  • The orange or black hoses? Usually the Orange hoses fail. There is a telltale sign on the hoses---They have a bulge in them. The BEST fix is to replace all the hoses of the color that has failed. There are 2 hoses suppliers. LCI supplies THEIR hose and OEM's like Forest River make their own. The FR hoses seem to fail more. Inspect all your hoses(Jack AND Slide) for bulges(bubbles in the hose). Doug
  • I had a few problems with leaky fittings. They spent time tightning all fittings and all ok now.
