Finally made it to the mini-storage to check level of the unit after sitting for a month or so since the last reported instance of drifting. As a reminder, when we went to the rig, the rear of the rig compared to the front had went off level to almost 7 degrees according to the control panel. Had no evidence of a leak but could not figure out then the cause. Return trip yesterday showed the unit pretty much as it should have been (off 0.1 percent side to side and 0.1 percent front to back). So whatever caused the initial extension of the front legs and retraction of the rear did no occur again. Closer investigation of the rear pads showed them to be "down" in the gravel approximately an inch or two. Whether this amount to 7 degrees, I don't know, but will do the math to check at some point. But at least I know that we do not have a leak. Odd sequence of events, but evidently the system is fine.
Bingo
