Determining Which Rebuild Kit Is Correct For Landing Gear On 2010 Forest River Wildcat 5th Wheel

Question

Question:

It sounds and acts like a Shear pin broke on my front landing gear. I am assuming the manufacturer installed a Lippert set but am not certain. I would like to order a repair kit so is there way to identify the landing gear assembly?

It may very well be possible to rebuild the landing gear on your 2010 Forest River Wildcat 5th wheel with a rebuild kit, but first you will need to identify which model landing gear is installed.

On either of the landing gear legs there should be a part number, this may be on a white sticker or stamped into the metal depending on the specific landing gear. With this part number I can then identify your landing gear and recommend the correct rebuild kit.

If there is not any part numbers or information on your specific landing gear your best bet would be a complete replacement like the Lippert Electric Landing Gear Set # LC333964 would be the best option.
