Well on Friday as we were setting up, my wife does the hard job of leveling. She pushed the button and every thing worked as advertised, till the front jacks started to level a little more up. Then the left front started to squeal, I sprayed it with silicon and it still squeals. Any one els having this problem? And if so, how did you fix it? Thanks
 
But the noise only happens when the jack is almost compessed to the lowest and when it is raising from there with a load on it Does not happen when I unhook the rig from the truck, only on leveling.
 
Haven't had that problem; however, they sometimes don't fully retract. Have to walk around the RV to ensure they are all up. Oh well.

When the fluid is low in a hydraulic system it will sometimes squeal. Have you checked the fluid?
