homelesshartshorns Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 How do I go about ordering springs for my Jacks? I have a 2000 Itasca Suncruser on a Ford frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat & Pete Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 I would think from the jack manufacturer . But a quick Google search says they are available from a lot of sources . You'll need to know the model # of the jacks . https://www.google.com/search?q=HWH+Springs+Kit&oq=HWH+Springs+Kit&aqs=chrome..69i57&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homelesshartshorns Posted August 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 To answer my own question! HWH is too busy to mess with a $50 order! So I found the spring kit on Amazon... PS: Thanks for your input Pat and Pet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFchap Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 If I need a part I cannot locate or id, I would call Lichtsinn Motors in Forest City. Give them the coach s/n and they ensure you get the correct part. And they can normally provide it cheaper than a local dealer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIBERNUT Posted August 30, 2016 Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 Not a reply, just some info- I have found when dealing with suppliers ( in particular Dexter Axle), if you tell them you are a repair shop you get a discount. If'n I didn't have a business (I do, but not RV repair) , I'd get a letterhead printed with some fecus bovum on it and "TAX ID" at my address. They have grapes asking for $133 for 4 disc brake pads.

homelesshartshorns Posted February 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 Don't want to leave a thread hanging out there! I have discovered after a year of messing with oiling up the rams before each retraction, only to find out it didn't help the one sticky jack I have. I also added a new set of springs to the sticky jack to no avail. What I have discovered is that if before storing my jacks, I raise them up an inch or two and then punch the store button they will all go up on there own. I think getting the weight of the rig on the jacks and then forcing them to get started it keeps them moving on there own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray,IN Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Yep, Winnebago has an online parts store on Amazon. Your jacks should store by themselves when the command is received. Something else is causing them to stall during the store operation. Visit the HWH FAQ page for most answers. One thing that slows jack retraction is an accumulation of oil and dirt around the shaft seals, reducing flexion. Other possibilities are a bent jack shaft/ram, faulty seal inside the cylinder, incorrect oil used; most of these are mentioned in the FAQ section. HWH says shaft lubrication is not recommended, they are stainless steel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
