Level-up jacks

I have a ‘18 Cedar Creek 34rl2, Lipert leveling jacks left rear jack leaks down the shaft. I have a puddle of oil on the ground under the foot of 12-14 in in dia. after standing 3 weeks, called around and can not find a repair kit to rebuild it, Lipert says they don’t have a kit, you have to buy a new jack $625 plus shipping 700 + total.Forest River cost 550 plus 150 shipping. Is this the norm to just replace or is there a place to get these rebuilt. Located in northern minn for the summer. Dan
  • I have not done it, but there have been people that took the leg off and took it to a hydraulic repair facility... They rebuilt ( replace O-Rings & seals) them cheap... cheaper than buying new
  • Yeah, any decent hydraulic shop can rebuild the cylinder easily, and not cost you all that much. There isn't much to them: seals and O-rings.
  • Hi searched locally online and found 2 shops that mite be able to help me out will call Monday, thanks for the idea Dan
