To: WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com Date: Monday, November 2, 2009, 9:40 PM THANKS ALL who gave us ideas on the probable reason for the hydraulic leaking out. We will look into all suggestions AND thanks for the answer to what the required fluid quantity should be... One inch from the top... THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH... THIS GROUP is the BEST... We are newbies and read our blue box and blue books... but sometimes it's hard to get all the info. We hope to meet you all in the near future!
