Since Atwood is no longer in the landing gear making business and you have an older 5th wheel trailer I recommend just replacing your entire landing gear set. This not only gives you peace of mind that everything is in good shape but it also makes tracking down replacement/repair parts in the future much easier.
For your application I recommend the Landing Gear Set # RVLG-8000 which has up to a 36-1/2" lift and is rated for 8,000 lbs. This cost-effective option comes with the landing gear and the gear box so all you need is the manual hand crank # RVLG-HDL to operate it. You also have the option to upgrade to an electric operation with the motor # M1230 and switch # LG-145236 in the future.
To verify fitment with your 1995 Shadow Cruiser you just need to make sure that the weld stops on your current landing gear measure 15-1/2" inside or 17-1/2" outside like you see in the attached photo.
