Michael: Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today, we're going to take a quick look at the Lippert Components Venture Follow Leg repair kit for your fifth wheel RV landing gear. This is going to provide several different components here to fix many of the potential troubles that you could have with your power landing gear, so that you can get back to camping. This kit is produced by Lippert Components. If you're not familiar with that name, they do provide most of the power landing gear that comes standard on your fifth wheel RVs produced today. Almost all of your fifth wheel RVs are going to have a Lippert Components Power Landing Gear on them.
If you run into any problems, this is the kit from Lippert to help you with that.This is going to include a 4" long, 1/2" diameter follow drive shaft. It's also going to include two drive shaft bushings an E-Clip, a 13/16" long by 7/32" diameter drive pin, and a 1 1/8" long by 7/32" diameter spiral pin, as well as a 12T bevel gear. It's got 12 teeth on it. This is a 1 3/8" in diameter. We also have a 16T, so it's got 16 teeth on there, bevel gear.
This is going to be 1 3/4" in diameter. Then we also have a shim washer, which is 15/16" in outer diameter, and then 1/2" in inner diameter.You're probably never going to need all of these components, but if you even need one of them, it will be nice to have the direct replacement from Lippert. But then you also have some of these other components around. Most likely you're going to be using one of these bevel gears. Your original has stripped, you're needing a replacement so that your gears will function correctly, but it will be nice to have some of these other components as well.
These are made here in the USA, so you can trust they're made to the high quality standards that we've come to know and trust for products that are made here in the U.S. If you're needing some replacement gear, this is going to be the kit for you. That's going to complete our look through today. Again, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Thanks for watching..

Perfect product for rebuilding these legs that are not made any more
Excellent p - 10/15/2018
Perfect kit to repair my leg on Columbus 5th wheel. Great instructions. Thanks etrailer.
Bought this kit for back up, in case of similar trouble with a lift leg in the future. Left and right kits are interchangeable, with the exception of the rod that inserts into the leg. However, it is the gears that would be worn/broken, or the pins, so the old rod can easily be reused without concern. Quality components.
I'm sure that these are great if they fit your landing gear leg. These did not fit mine. They are nearly identical to the ones I have. The only difference is mine have a 5/8 diameter hole through the 16 tooth gear. This set had a 1/2" diameter through hole. The 12 tooth gear that I have has a groove around the outside diameter to accept a wire like snap ring to cover the pin and hold inplace. I cannot find the ones I have. My bad though. When I ordered them it was because I didn't know what manufacturer or part number that I had. The components aren't marked
Worked great, but both times I've purchased this $30 kit, I've found I really only needed the 0.15 cent washer in them. It gets warped and bent if you go too far with the landing gear. That's what breaks.
This kit is every bit as good as the Stromberg-Carlson, but a lot less pricey. If you need the whole thing or, usually, only a couple parts this is the one to buy.
I had looked around for these parts and had a hard time finding them. Thanks to Etrailer the parts were exactly what I needed, every thing fit perfect just like it should. Thanks,
Item was exactly what I had ordered. Packed exceptionally well, and was shipped very quickly with reports of its logistics to my email.
According to Lippert's website, the kit comes with a shim washer and a thrust washer; one is silver color and the other is black: I got the silver washer but not the black. The sealed package was unbroken. I called Jena D. who will be in contact with Lippert on Monday
They work great but, we traded it in. An have upgraded to a class motorhome. Thanks for asking
Fit and function great, easy install, had to follow with a gear box due to wear.
Parts look the same as original. Haven't installed yet. I have a machine shop so if anything doesn't fit it will fit
The product was exactly like I needed, the shipping was a little slow but that was ok, the costumer service was excellent and I think that they went out of their way to keep me informed on the status of my order! I will do business with them anytime!!
product was as advertised, got it quickly and replacement was an easy install thanks to step by step directions.
You guys saved our weekend, thank you! Chris cross referenced our order to make sure the parts were correct, and was awesome on the phone to work with. He also gave me multiple shipping options with different pricing. I won't buy my parts anywhere else.
old landing gear gears where worn out, replaced with this new set and worked perfect. will buy from etrailer again.
Great service easy to follow web page fast delivery will definitely use again !!!
