Your 2000 Jayco Eagle likely uses either Stromberg Carlson Electric Landing Gear Set # LG-1 or a Lippert setup like Lippert Electric Landing Gear Set # LC333964. You will want to confirm this, but if you need the replacement lead leg for Stromberg setup then go with Lead Leg # LG-179013 which has total lift of 34-7/8" and uses Motor # LG-217884. If you have the Lippert setup then go with Lippert Components 32" Lead 5th Wheel RV Landing Gear Drop Leg # LC179013 and motor # LC142178 if you need the motor too.

If you do not have the Stromberg Carlson or Lippert systems, feel free to respond to this answer with your current setup, and I will be happy to point you in the right direction.

I thought I had a replacement leg setup that would work for you till I read that you have a motor on each of the landing gear legs. Is there anyway you could send me a picture of what you have so that I can see if I recognize it?

The price difference does seem backwards, but the faster speed part #LG-141893 has the same weight capacity as the lower speed part #LG-142178 that you also referenced. It's a difference of 5,500 RPM and 7,140 RPM so you would definitely see a…

We have the same part number basically twice through two different vendors here that are the exact replacement motor you are looking for. The Lippert part #LC142178 and the Stromberg part #LG-142178. They are the exact same motors and if I were you I…

Trailer landing gear sets like the etrailer.com #RVLG-8HDL that you referenced are designed to bolt onto brackets that are welded to the frame. In terms of function or capacity there is no particular reason you couldn't just weld the legs…

Answer 10

The skipping sound you are hearing is the motor drawing too much amperage and then "clicking" loudly as it fails to have enough amperage to move the landing gear. This is very common if the motor needs replacing or the power or ground for…

If you are seeing your Atwood gear box moving around on the shaft of your landing gear that is because one of the tabs that holds it in place has sheered off. We see this problem on occasion and the only solution is to replace the gear box. What I…

Answer 12

It could be the motor but it could also be the screw/nut inside the jack leg that is causing the problem. Since you mentioned that it is hard to crank it manually I suspect that it is likely the screw and/or nut. On jacks that have an ACME screw the…
