RamTC
Apr 12, 2015Explorer
When the HJ motors become noisy, its time to replace the bearings. If you're handy, it's not too complicated and only costs a few dollars for each motor. I've done all four of mine already and they run like new.
Also, I recently replaced one rear jack new for $250 as it actually failed while raising the camper, seems the worm gear nut rusts and no longer held under load. Made for a very dangerous situation, had it been a front jack I'm sure my TC would have rolled. I believe HJ wrote me and said jack life expectancy is 6 yrs. My jacks are now 10 yrs. old.
