So what did you do to your Truck Camper today?
I saw these threads in some of the other Open Roads RV Forums, but didn't see one for TCs. I'll start... I installed Interior LED puck lights and a 12v power outlet.

Reinstalled the rear HJ motors that came back from being rebuilt after motor seizures. I don't remember if it was there when they went out but these came back with a stiff rubber o-ring where the motor slides over the jack leg.
The top of the jack fits into a recess in the motor head but this o-ring completely fills that recess and even with my 6'2" 250lbs bearing down on the motor, I could not compress the o-ring enough for the screw holes to align. The hole on the rear was even worse.
So, no o-rings. I may be wrong but the overlap without the o-ring seems like it would do a better job of stopping water intrusion than an o-ring that spaces the motor housing off the jack tube such that there is a gap instead of an overlap, that's assuming I could get the screws started...
Maybe you could could spread some grease or Vaseline or something to fill the gap that might deter what little water might get in.
Good luck.
