    Does anyone know a cure? Jacks creak when walking inside.

    My jacks make the noise when walking around, especially when there is a drop in temperature of about 20 degrees. I called Lippert and they said it is most likely air in the lines. I was to add the additive and run the jacks up and down about 20 times.

    Towmax tires.

    I had tire issues which included blow outs and damage a number of years ago. The tire manufacturer would not talk to me or take my calls. Tredit came through and covered my expenses, but it took about 5 months. Communications, documentation, and patience are the key. Good luck.
