Most landing gear is interchangeable but I can help you measure your existing landing gear to make sure you are getting the correct one that will bolt up to your existing brackets. You would just need to measure from the Crossroads mounting brackets to the ground to find the correct landing gear leg length.

You also need to know the distance between the weld stops. The standard and most common measurement between brackets on landing gear is 15-1/2". The most common measurement from outside of weld stop to outside of weld stop is 17-1/2".

If you have the standard measurements, I recommend Landing Gear Set - 36-1/2" Lift part # RVLG-8000 which would bolt right up to the Crossroads.
