I have a leak in one of my hydraulic lines for my leveling jacks. I believe they are power gear. I want to change the line myself. Does anybody know if I can just disconnect the damaged one, put the new one in, and add fluid. Or do I have to bleed any lines or anything weird to change it out?

Thanks.

Put a new one and add fluid good to go. I rebuilt mine and added fluid no problems.

So no need to bleed any lines then? Also if I have the slide in the out position to make it easier to work on then will this pressurize the system, or can I still just disconnect and replace?

Your lines for you slide should be on a different pump ( double check). Just replace your line and lower your jacks all the way down a few times, this will bleed the air out. Fill tank after you do this....

I had to replace a seal on the tank to one of these pumps that controls the slides. Removing the tank ment all the fluid came out. When O put it back on I just filled it up and cycled the slide a few times and it was fine.

I have this exact problem....where can I get a replacement line at? Would any RV or Camping World type place have it?

Thanks!

NAPA or HOSE PRO's

just take the line off and take it down to the local hose mart or hose man in town they can make up an new one and clock it if need too.. just show them the line and say make it the same....

What causes them to leak, I have heard of a lot of these leaking. Is there any preventative measures to take to keep from leaking or is it just an age thing?

Thanks guys! I guess that might be easier than trying to find the actual replacement part #. I already pulled the line off so I just need to have the new one made tomorrow.

Brandon....mine was rubbing on a heat shield that goes between the headers and the jack.
