How to Give your Lippert Landing Gear a Larger Footprint

Question:

What are advantages of Hapijac Elephant Foot or Lippert 9inch. Trying to choose one. Will a pair on the front be enough or would a pair on the back be needed???

I am not familiar with the Happijac Elephant Foot therefore would not be able to provide you with the pros and cons but the Lippert Components 5th Wheel RV Landing Gear Foot Pad part # LC314667 is a circular replacement foot pad for the standard rectangular foot pad that came with most powered Lippert landing gear systems.

The 9" diameter foot pad will provide a much larger surface area than the standard foot pad which will increase stability and reduce sinking on soft porous surfaces. The above kit comes in a set of two. I recommend replacing both the front and rear pads.
