Can Original Mounting Brackets Be Used to Install Replacement Landing Gear

Expert Reply:
Your 2007 Rockwood Ultralite 5th wheel trailer will have a dry weight of either 3740-lbs (if it is the M-2150) or 4106-lbs (if it is the M-2320). For either one the Bulldog Tandem Landing Gear Set # BD500162 has plenty of lift capacity so it is a good choice for a replacement.
The included mounting brackets for this kit are intended for installation on the trailer so that both straight ends of the brackets face the tow vehicle. You will need to use these included weld-on brackets, not your existing ones, since otherwise the stops on the jack tubes would not make contact with the brackets. If you refer to the linked photo you will see how the brackets contact the stops on the jack tubes.
