2004 Gulfstream MH

I have a Dewald Power Gear leveling system on my MH. For a reason I know not the right rear jack while sitting with the jacks up will drop down slow over several days. I have no clue why this is happening. It is just the one jack. If any one can help me I would certainly like to have that knowledge.

    Had the same problem on our 2005 Gulfstream. Made an appointment and went to the factory in Elkhart, IN. Spend the night in their lot, and got it fixed the next day. Problem is leaky valves at the manifold. They replaced one valve core, explained how it all worked to me, and showed me how to release the valves so the jacks or slides could be retracted. Did a pressure check on the system. Cost me very little.

    X2 I would say there is a leak somewhere. First check all fittings around it. Make sure all hoses tight, screws tight, and plugs working.
