Has anyone had or checked the hydraulic cylinders on your slides for rust?? Can not believe this would be good for the seals. I was just cleaning up and checking things on our 2011 Mountaineer when I saw rust and pitting on 2 of my 4 slide cylinders.
After 4 Winters on South padre, mine are pitted and one of them is leaking. I guess the pits scratched the seal and now it leaks.
Nice by the ocean, but it really ruins the equipment.
I imagine you have some surface rust, probably won't hurt anything, but I would take a 3-m green scratch-pad and some WD-40 and clean them real good.
