Expert Reply:

You'll need to measure the arm (pictured below) to determine the correct size gear pack replacement for your trailer's slide outs.

For 2" x 2" you'll need # LC281331
For 2.5" x 2.5" you'll need # LC123356
For 2" x 3" or 3" x 3" you'll need # LC140409

I've attached a short video below where I'll walk you through the replacement process. I do recommend using a floor jack and piece of wood to help lift the slide out box up slightly to take some tension off of the gear pack to make replacement easier.

I'm looking to replace my gear packs on 2012 Spring dale 266RL slide room. The video and photos are not showing measurement points in enough detail. So i don't trust my measurement. I think it is a 2x2. But im not sure how many teeth. Also, can i measure across the to top of the arm also to get correct measurement?

@Donald You could measure across the top as well to get the right measurement for that arm. Its in a hard spot to get a good photo that's for sure. If its easier for you to measure the top you can do just that to get those specs. If you have the old gear pack still you could take measurements of that and match them up to.

@NickS I haven't taken the old gear pack off yet and want to make sure before I order the replacement. I'm not sure how to measure the old gear pack.

@NickS Measure across the top gives me 2". Measure from top to bottom gives me 2.5". Also 2012 Springdale slide gear pack use a 18 tooth gear?
