Hydrolic Line Repair

[lundwc16]

My 2010 Montana has hydrolic slides, & two of the lines are frayed and leaking. They are lines that come from the switch panel that isolates the slides & disappear in the wall headed for the respective slide. My question is will I have to trace the line to the slide, remove it & have a new line made, or is their a fitting that I can use to repair the line?

On a 10 year old rig, I'd replace the lines, plus I don't know of any fitting that will correct a frayed line. You can trace which line it is and hook a connector between the old and new hose (or tape them together) to pull it thru ... however unless both lines are going to the bedroom slide, you'll have to drop part of the belly pan down to get to the fittings on the cylinder. Tractor Supply, Atwoods, most any implement dealer, or most any hydraulic shop can make your hoses. I've seen @1800 - 2000 psi as an average of max system pressure.
