Keep your Level Up Towable hydraulic leveling system leak-free with this factory-spec replacement hose end fitting. The Lippert 138416 is a straight crimp-on coupling machined from carbon steel for reliable, pressure-rated connections at the hose termination point. It mates directly to 1/4" ID hydraulic hose and terminates in a 1/4" female JIC 37-degree flare port -- the standard connection used throughout Level Up Towable slide-out and leveling hydraulic circuits.
Hydraulic hose end fittings are wear and damage items. A cracked crimp ferrule, a stripped flare seat, or a fitting that was cut too short during a field repair means you need an exact replacement -- not a generic hardware-store substitute. The Lippert 138416 is built to the same specification as the original fittings installed at the factory on Level Up Towable systems, so the JIC 37-degree flare seats correctly against mating fittings on the pump manifold, cylinder ports, and distribution blocks without leaks or torque surprises.
This fitting is cross-referenced by multiple OEM RV manufacturers under their own part numbers, confirming it is a widely used component across dozens of fifth-wheel and travel trailer platforms. If your coach came with a Level Up Towable hydraulic system, this is the correct hose end for 1/4" ID line repairs.
Straight body style for in-line hose terminations. Crimp-on attachment creates a permanent, vibration-resistant bond to 1/4" ID hydraulic hose without barb slippage.
1/4" female JIC 37-deg flare connection mates to standard JIC male fittings used throughout Level Up Towable hydraulic circuits -- pump outlets, cylinder ports, and tee blocks.
Machined carbon steel body withstands the working pressures typical of RV hydraulic leveling systems and resists deformation during crimping and installation torque.
Verified OEM cross-references for Forest River, Grand Design, Heartland, Keystone, and Winnebago confirm broad compatibility across Level Up Towable-equipped fifth wheels and trailers.
JIC (Joint Industry Council) 37-degree flare fittings are the dominant standard in mobile hydraulic and fluid-power applications, including RV leveling and slide-out systems. The 37-degree cone angle on the male end seats against the matching female flare seat to form a metal-to-metal seal that holds under pressure without relying on O-rings or thread sealants. This makes them reusable, inspectable, and reliable across a wide temperature range -- important in an under-coach environment that sees road heat, cold weather, and constant vibration.
When replacing a hose end, always confirm both the hose ID (1/4" for this fitting) and the port connection style (JIC 37-deg flare) before ordering. Mixing JIC and NPT or NPTF fittings is a common and costly mistake.
The following manufacturer part numbers are confirmed equivalents to Lippert 138416. If your service manual, parts list, or dealer invoice shows one of these numbers, this is the correct replacement fitting.
