I ordered this landing gear motor and gear box on a Monday. It was delivered on Wednesday at noon. From Missouri to Boynton, Virginia in just 2 days UPS ground. Unbelievable!! I installed gearbox and motor in 15 minutes and was able to get my camper back off my truck and enjoy the rest of our vacation. The new gear box is made of aluminum instead of plastic and actually fit better than the original one.Thank you so much Crystal S.



by:

this crossed as a direct replacement for my old motor however it won't lift my trailer. it slows to a stop and doesn't even have enough power to lower the trailer with its full weight on it.

I would suggest checking the ground connections. Sometimes that is the cause of slow moving landing gear motors. Another possibility is the battery power is low, and third is that maybe the jack screws and pinion gear need lubrication. If there are no odd sounds coming from the motor, then it is likely one of the first two issues.



by:

Working fine.



by:

Received the new landing gears with motor and had to install a month later due to weather and the flu. It was a breeze to install with a minimum of hand tools. The staff at Etrailer did a great job of selecting the exact parts I needed and sending via expedited mail. Took a photo of old parts before removal as instructed by staff so I could put the new parts in correctly. The new parts were of high quality and exact match. They went in easily. Took about 2.5 hrs with a few breaks included. See photo of a happy camper with new landing gear and motor.



by:

Got my order sooner than expected. And it fixed the problem



by:

The motor was a perfect fit! Sara help me find what I needed and in a very timely manner, she was very polite and helpful.



by:

Quality parts and great service.

I
used this motor & switch as an upgrade to my Atwood manual crank landing legs, and am impressed with the instructions, fit, and quality of the motor and switch.



by:

The product and eTrailer are great. As an RV maintenance center, it's a pleasure to do business with you.



by:

The tracking # shipment date was a week off! It was an easy install, but did not include a switch or wire nuts to attach wires. Motor works great.



by:

I initially put a new gearbox on my jacks thinking that the electric motor should still be ok. Wrong. It must have gotten hot too. I contacted etrailer and discussed the problem and was told to get this motor. I did and once it was on it works great. William B. helped me with this and was great.

Gearbox and motor are working fine after a year of use. Parts fit as advertised.



by:

this was for a replacement on a Lippert Landing gear product, works fine perfect fit easy to install and most important 1/3 of the price of the Lippert one

Got it when the email showed I would. Nice service. Thank you.

Part fit and worked perfect

This is a great replacement motor and gearbox for my 1994 Lance 945 11'3" truck camper with Atwood jacks. The main problem with the Atwood jacks was that the ball screw shaft and ball screw nut were rusted, removed the jacks, removed the motors and gear boxes, removed the 2 pins and the helical cut gears themselves, ran the screw shaft out of the tubes. Cleaned the rust from the ball screw shafts and lubricated the shaft with waterproof grease.The only problem is that the balls in the ball screw nut are also rusted and will take some time to start to recirculate as these balls need to break free. The only thing that I had to do to the motors was remove the feet on the gearbox and also drill and tap a new 1/4 inch bolt hole.These motors have bolt spacing that is closer together. This $[xxx] fix isbetter than purchasing new jacks at $[xxxx]

Product worked as expected, very quick delivery. This was ordered with the gearbox for my 2008 Grand Junction.

This was an exact replacement part and was easy to install
The service was fast and very much appreciated. This was not my first purchase from e-trailer nor will it be my last. Great job guys.

Great



by:

I was surprised at how small the motor actually is compared to the unit I removed from my trailer. I also purchased landing gear because that is what initially failed on my 5th wheel. I realized that my motor would not adapt to the new landing gear so I ended up having to purchase this motor. The set up seems to work OK but I haven't used it much yet. The fasteners that came with the motor were to long and I had to grind them down to shorten them. There was a big gap in the plastic gear reduction cover. That closed up when I tightened the unit to the landing gear. Easy to install. Just remember you get what you pay for, quality normally reflects purchase price. For what I paid I did not have high expectations. etrailer was easy to work with and I will definitely buy from them again.



by:

Service and delivery was very good. Received item in great shape as described. The only concern I have it looks like I didn’t order a strong enough motor, it seems to struggle even though it’s rated for 5500 lbs. I should have done a little more research.

Thank you for the review! Something you might want to check on is the RPMs. This motor is rated for 5,500 RPMs which is good, but if your old motor was rated higher it would explain why this one feels like its struggling.



by:

Fast shipping and well made!



by:

Received 2 days ago. Installed in 10 minutes, and perfect fit into existing landing gear. It is a little louder than the original motor, and haven't fully tested it more than 10 minutes. Will update review if I have any issues during first few months.



by:

It works if you take your time and operate it slowly. It is not really strong enough to lift the trailer easily.



by:

The motor fit into the same place the old motor was in on a Cougar 5th Wheel. The polarity of the wires were reverse from the original unit supplied with the Cougar. Speed is a bit slower compared to the original.

It works fine and does the job. Better than hand cranking!



by:

Right fit great customers service, I will deal with etrailer in the near future.

Parts arrived sooner than I was told they would. Coupled to gear reducer box and fit perfect the first time. Service and knowledge provided by Rennie was excellent. Price was better than I found anywhere else ... especially with the free shipping! Will do business with them again when I need parts.

  • Replacement Motor Recommendation for Landing Gear Motor that Clicks
    Basically you've eliminated everything from being the problem aside from the motor so you are on the right track since you mentioned replacing it. For that the Replacement Motor part # LG-142178 that you referenced would be what you'd need. The clicking you are hearing is most likely an electrical clicking like when a car starter goes bad. Which the motor of this is the same type of motor that a starter has as well.

  • Replacement Motor and Gear Box for Venture Landing Gear on a 5th Wheel Trailer
    Gear box # LG-179015 will fit Venture landing gear jacks and replacement motor # LG-142178 would work as well. Motor # LG-196308 will also work. There aren't any detailed instructions but both the gear box and motor are external so be removing the old motor and gear box you will just reverse the process to install the new parts.

  • 5th Wheel Landing Gear Won't Power Up Using Trailer Mounted Batteries
    I'd make sure the electrical system for the jack motors is properly grounded. The fact that you can get the motor to work using an outside power source leads me to believe that you have a missing or incomplete ground connection somewhere in the system. The trailer mounted batteries should be grounded to the trailer frame. The motors should be getting their ground connection via their physical contact with the landing gear which should be bolted or welded to the trailer frame.

  • Powered Landing Gear Motor Recommendation for 20K-lb 5th Wheel Trailer
    We do offer several brands and models of replacement 5th wheel landing gear motors, including the Atwood 75391 that you referenced. This motor is rated for applications up to 5000-lbs tongue weight. We also offer Stromberg Carlson's # LG-217884 Motor and Switch Kit, rated for 6000-lbs. The motor alone is also available as part # LG-142178. Pricing for all is available on each product page and both Stromberg Carlson motors carry a 1-year warranty and 2-years for the Atwood.

  • Replacement Motor for Venture M-9000-PK Landing Gear
    The Replacement Motor # LG-142178 referenced in your question will work perfectly as a replacement on your Venture M-9000-PK landing gear system. This motor features the 4-1/8 inch mounting hole pattern that you are needing and it has a 5,500 pound weight capacity. I have attached a short video demonstration on this product that you can also check out.

  • Recommended Replacement Venture Landing Gear Motor and Gearbox for 2008 Forest River Sandpiper
    For the gearbox on your 2008 Forrest River Sandpiper I recommend the Replacement Gearbox for Venture Aluminum Electric 5th Wheel RV Landing Gear Assemblies # LC276602. The aluminum casing is far more sturdy than the plastic housing options. If you want the motor replacement as well, then I recommend the Replacement Motor for Stromberg Carlson Electric Landing Gear - 5,500 lbs # LG-142178.

  • Need To Replace a M-9000-PK Landing Gear Motor On A 2011 Crossroads Rushmore
    The M-9000-PK part number you have means you have a Venture motor. Typically this will be rated to 5,000 pounds and do wear out over time as well. With that being said, the Heavy Duty 6500-pound rated Tuson Landing Gear Motor # LC196308 should get you up and running better. The motors for these are pretty universal and I have confirmed this will replace your current motor a few times, so I can definitely recommend it as a good replacement.

  • Recommendation For Replacement Motor For A 2010 Keystone Montana Hickory Edition
    The Keystone Montana design has several unique features that need specific replacement parts. For your 2010 Keystone Montana Hickory edition, the replacement motor for the electric stabilizer jack will probably be the C-800 Replacement Lauber Motor, Item # LC138445. This motor fits standard Lippert Components electric stabilizer jacks and Lippert Components supplies most of the OEM parts for the RV manufacturers including your Montana.

  • How Much Quicker is High Speed Lippert Landing Gear Motor than Lower Speed Motor
    The price difference does seem backwards, but the faster speed part # LG-141893 has the same weight capacity as the lower speed part # LG-142178 that you also referenced. It's a difference of 5,500 RPM and 7,140 RPM so you would definitely see a speed difference between the two. Basically the faster speed motor is going to be 28 percent faster.

  • Replacement Motor for Atwood 75721
    The Replacement Motor for Stromberg Carlson Electric Landing Gear - 5,500 lbs # LG-142178 is the correct replacement motor for the discontinued Atwood 75721. The # LC141893 you asked about will also work and is a higher speed motor so it will give you a little more time for the relaxing part versus the "work" part of camping. The gearing is different between the discontinued Atwood motor and this motor, so I recommend using the Replacement Gearbox for Venture Aluminum Electric 5th Wheel...

  • Replacement Motor for Venture 9000 Powered Landing Gear
    The Lippert Components HD 6500-lbTuson 5th Wheel RV Landing Gear Motor # LC196308 is intended for use with their heavy-duty 6500-pound-rated Tuson Landing Gear but it will also work on other Lippert/Venture powered landing gear. The standard replacement motor for the Venture landing gear is part # LG-142178. If you need the corresponding motor control switch for this use part # LG-145236.

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Jacks that Make a Clicking Noise
    Other than the clicking sound is the landing gear functioning properly? Usually, when someone says they have clicking the jacks are either working slowly or not at all. Check the connection of the ground wire on the motor and make sure it's grounded well. Also, test the battery the jack runs off of. A lot of jack issues stem from a bad ground or weak battery just not having the power to run it properly. The other things that could be going on is the screw or gears could be bad but...

  • Why Would Powered Landing Gear On a Toy Hauler Raise Slowly
    Slow landing gear is usually the result of the following issues: 1. low battery voltage 2. bad ground for the jack motor 3. lack of lubrication on the jack screws and pinion gear The motor could be bad, but I would check the above mentioned things first before you replace the motor. To pick out a motor I would need to know the landing gear brand though. For a replacement motor the part # LG-142178 would work as it is confirmed to fit Venture, Atwood and Lippert landing gear.

  • Replacement Trailer Landing Gear Motor for Ragen Toy Hauler
    Since the gears work easily when not under load and you are able to manually assist the motor when under load, the gears are not the issue. It sounds like the clicking is a relay that is tripping and resetting so it sounds like either the wiring or the motor is the issue. To bypass the current wiring, you can run a jump wire from the battery to the motor and then from the motor to the frame. This will show you if the motor is bad or if you have a different issue with the wiring or switch....

  • Recommended Replacement Landing Gear For a 2020 Forest River Wolf Pack 335 5TH Wheel Toy Hauler
    Without being able to check the individual components and determine if the slipping is occurring in legs, gear box or motor it is hard to say what one part will fix your issue on your 2020 Forest River Wolf Pack 335 Toy Hauler. My recommendation is to update to a better and stronger system. The Ultra-Fab Deluxe Electric Landing Gear Set # UF17-943010 gives each landing gear leg its own motor. This greatly increases lift capacity to 12,000lbs which is well above the 5,500lbs of the Replacement...

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Landing Gear Motor that Skips/Clicks when Activated
    The skipping sound you are hearing is the motor drawing too much amperage and then "clicking" loudly as it fails to have enough amperage to move the landing gear. This is very common if the motor needs replacing or the power or ground for the motor is not adequate. Only problem is that the motor and gear box you sent in a picture of does not match anything we carry. Can you get a brand off of it and send that to me? In the mean time I'd verify that the ground wire and power wire for the...

  • Replacement Landing Gear Motor for Atwood 5th Wheel Landing Gear
    The replacement motor part # LG-142178 can be used as a replacement for Atwood landing gear. It would be a really simple replacement that would bolt right up. Since you're a mechanic this would be a super simple install compared to what you are used to.

  • Replacement Landing Gear Motor for 11,000 lb Fifth Wheel
    A heavy-duty landing gear motor such as the Lippert # LC196308 is not necessary unless you have LCI Power Landing Gear rated for 6,500 lbs. Instead I recommend Replacement Motor # LG-142178 because it can be used with most Stromberg Carlson, Lippert, Atwood or Venture models of landing gear and it is still rated for 5,500 lbs. I've added links to video reviews of this landing gear for you to check out as well.

  • Replacement Gear Box and Motor for 2005 Sandpiper 5th Wheel Trailer
    Since you said your gearbox says Venture on it we have just what you need. Since the gears are stripped it would be the best solution to replace the gear box and the motor. Gear box # LG-179015 will fit Venture landing gear jacks and replacement motor # LG-142178 would work as well.

  • Does Replacement Motor for Stromberg Carlson Electric Landing Gear Have Slip Clutch
    The Replacement Motor for Stromberg Carlson Electric Landing Gear # LG-142178 that you referenced, as well as the other replacement landing gear motors, will not have a slip clutch like your RV1-200 motor. This motor will be a great replacement so long as the mounting hole spacing on your current motor is the same at 4-1/8" on center (measured diagonally, straight across).
