Ram Landing Gear 12-Volt Motor Kit # LC142178 is rated for use with landing gear having up to an 8000-lb rating, such as set # RVLG-8000. Atwood's discontinued landing gear kit 75721 was rated for 5500-lbs so the new motor will have an easier time operating the jacks.

The Lippert landing gear bracket #LC113511 is 2" long x 3-1/2" wide x 4-1/2" tall just like #LG-Brackets. The top portion of the bracket has a slightly different bend to it, but for all intents and purposes these are basically the same…
