    six point leveling

    Is there any routine preventive maintenance that should be done on the 6 point level system to help ensure years of trouble free service?

    Are you referring to Level Up hydraulic or Ground Control 3.0 electric. There should be a maintenance section in the Lippert owner's manual that came with your unit. I can show you an on-line link if you can't find the manual.

    I do not have a unit YET. I am still figuring out what I want...If I want etc. Trying to figure out the maintenance cost to go along with the purchase cost. We are looking at a Solitude 369RL and Reflection 337 and trying to pick which unit would be best for the family.

    The levelling system on the 369RL is 6 point hydraulic...the system on the 337RLS is 4point electric. I doesn't appear that either need much in the way of maintenance though there can be more issues with the hydraulic system with potential leaks.

    I've been reading about some of the leak issues on the hydraulics. Haven't heard to much about the 4pt leveling system or how it works. One GD owner said they loved it but gave no particulars.

    The main concern I keeping the cylinders clean and rust free. A wipe down once in a while with a good silicone lube will hel prolong their life

    The six point level is fairly stable. It is not rock solid. You will notice movements. Even park models sitting on blocks have some movement

    I sure like the six-point hydraulic better than the old travel trailer four-point, crank-down (and up) system. We've had no issues with the six-point, and enjoy the solid base that it provides.
