Ultra-Fab Deluxe Electric Landing Gear Set - 38" Lift - 12,000 lbs

by: HKW08/22/2021

I am very pleased with my purchase of Ultra-Fab Deluxe Electric Landing Gear Set - 12,000 lbs rated. My 1985 Alpenlite 5th Wheel was designed and built for hand-crank front jacks, so it was a bit of a challenge to figure out how to replace them with the electric landing gear. Except for welding the mounting brackets to the trailer's frame, I did all the work myself, taking my time and checking my work as I went, following the very clear written instructions that came with the product. These jacks are built for strength and reliability and have the power to raise and lower the RV for hitching and unhitching quickly and easily, compared to the original hand-crank jacks. I like that each jack can be operated independently for ease in leveling.1130495

Every time I use my trailer, I am so glad I got this landing gear!

I have a 2013 Heartland Toyhauler, weight about 12,000 pounds, we added large solar panels on the roof thus have a large battery bank running across the front, adding an extra weight at 800 pounds. The factory 6000 pound jacks where having a difficult time lifting the trailer off the hitch, straining. These new jacks motor on each leg, no problems lifting, there rated at twice the load rating at 12,000 pounds. We removed the front cover section on the front of the 5th wheel in order to gain access to the jack locations. The Jacks fitted right in where the old ones went. I made up a small box to mount the two switches, with an long cord, that connect and sits in the side lockable basement storage. So no outside switches, added security, there no way to move the jacks, unless you unlock the side basement compartment, plus i added a master shut off switch so there's is no accidental activations. I going to be building a custom enclosed trailer this year, and i be using these jack, for sure.606226

Upgraded my 2008 Weekend Warrior LED 3505 to the Ultra-Fab and couldn't be happier! The original Venture landing gear was complete garbage and has failed 3 times now. The Ultra Fab landing gear lifts much faster and sounds better. Another positive thing is the storage space I gained over the generator from removing original erector set. Ultra-Fab landing gear is much more robust compared to the original. I'm completely pleased with etrailer.com and their awesome service. I've talked a friend of mine into upgrading his garbage gear to the Ultra-Fab from etrailer. It was a bit of work to install, but my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner. Thanks, etrailer!511155

Still going strong, so glad I upgraded so much better than the original system.

Compared to what came on our Coachman Brookstone camper from the factory, I would rate these much, much better. They are a bit slower, but that just generally means a lower gear ratio and more lifting power. I would like to see a bit tighter fit between the two square tubes as well to reduce some of the play and wobble. Love the fact that they have grease zerks on them. I have had them for a while now and trust them. Can’t say that about the factory ones as the gears in those started to slip! My brother has a Denali and we just installed a set on his as well. And so, I obviously recommend these.1438815

Easy install, did require a little beating into the supports. works much better than the stock legs only complaint is switch covers are flimsy and fell off first trip with out fifth wheel .1421649

Awesome product. Surprisingly easy install. Fit right in factory brackets on a 2018 voltage triton 3551. Love the dual motors with individual controls. Hardest part of install was having to leave to go buy some 8 gauge connectors to connect power from both motors to power from trailer. The factory landing gear was rated at 6000 lbs. now with the 12000 lb landing gear the motors don’t sound like they are straining.1192797

These jack solved my problem on my 2019 Cougar 29rks. Factory jack were just barely able to lift the camper. I wore out a set of jack's in just 2 years. Decided to try these and they work great.1406463

System went together pretty well and I got the gamma electronic controller to operate both legs individually or simultaneously. Make sure your measurements are correct and you may be able to reuse your existing brackets. If not, get welding1392834

Easy to install and wore. Had to modify my mounts to make i easy instead of removing them and welding in new ones. Otherwise easy to install. Work way better then the single motor and gearbox that was original installed by manufacturer. Doubled the lifting power. Being independent of each other allows for easy leveling on uneven ground.1427377

Received items earlier than scheduled. Pretty easy to install. Went with RV switches instead. Sounds good and they move up and down with ease. Will do a update later for long term results. Believe it's a great investment. It's on a 2018 toy hauler 40ft. Factory legs barely worked it kept slipping going up .F.Y.I . they say the back up way is to remove motor on top to manually operate it. 637490

It came record time. It was everything I needed. Installation was easy. The instructions were great.1119160

They work great except they’re very slow.

Just started install, so far it's a no brainer. Had hand crank up camper jacks on it. Just need to do a little metal work. Yes, I put a camper on a 5th wheel trailer with a 12'ft gated deck with BBQ and sink with artificial grass.Dogs are happy.1321438

Best landing gear for big 5th wheels! Seriously, stop waiting and just upgrade to these already! You won’t regret it!1389485

I bought this item and had a welder weld up brackets
Installed (wired up motors ) and one did not work .. called company they gave me phone number of manafacture and I called .. got tech on phone ... had motor in 3 days and just now wired up and is working fine ... they seem a little slow but I have a 36’ goose neck with a lot of weight up front with living quarters and etc I’m happy with them and would recommend them 551307

Install was easy, the jacks work great. The only thing I think they needed is a cover plate around the switches so it looks nicer and finished. But it’s a great product so far…1411477

I LOVE that there will no longer be a bar connecting the two jacks. It would have to be removed in order to service my generator. These new jacks are faster than what I replaced. The quality appears to be top notch. The notches on the jacks didn't line up the same as my old jacks. In fact the bottom ones got in the way of the bracket on the trailer. I made some modifications. I pounded the bottom notches back in (I shaved the edges with a grinder so it wouldn't get all mashed up). I spot welded the included new brackets in the location of the old jack notches so that the jacks would be mounted securely between the two brackets. Everything works great. I mounted the switches in the propane compartment so they are somewhat hidden. I also had to cut off a piece of the tube used for the old external manual jack lift that was in the way of the motor. In all it took longer than I thought it would but It's nice to take your time and do it right. 769444

Arrived when they said they would. Fairly easy to install, right side on my Stealth a little tight but got it in. Of course had to run some wiring as expected. New landing gear operates great with no clutching! wish I'd done it sooner.1383340

Landing gear arrived quickly and just as advertised. Quick install that fit perfectly into my camper. This is not my first purchase with etrailer and so far they have always been great to buy from.1338374

We just had the landing gear installed (by Professional Trailer Repair in Tucson. Would 100% recommend them). The landing gear works well and seems very solid. I really like having the two motors to individually adjust the legs. Only downsides: (1) there isn’t an easy way to manually raise/lower if the motor blows, (2) the pin to keep the legs in place has a little ball on the end instead of a cotter pin…it seems like it could come out very easily when bouncing down the road.1272594

I purchased this product to replace the landing gear that had failed on my 5th wheel. I called around to a few other dealers and they were not very helpful. Ricky S. at e trailer was able to give me the product specs. that I needed and took my order that day.
My product arrived one day earlier than expected.
I installed the new landing gear myself and I must say that if you are a mechanical novice don't attempt yourself. This of course depends on your coach design. Mine is a toy hauler and the passenger side jack is right next to the generator. It was a challenge to get the old jack out and the new one end. However with that being said the new landing gear works as advertised and I am happy that I used e trailer to make these needed repairs. 183079

The jacks arrived in three days with the free shipping option. That's great service.

I just finished the install, and I am pleased with the jacks. The installation was fairly straightforward. The tabs on the jacks with the 13.5" spacing fit my existing brackets like a glove. That's one of the reasons I ordered these jacks. I've only used the jacks so far to pick the camper up off the jack stands I had it on while swapping the jacks, but they didn't seem to be straining in the least. My old Atwood single motor jack system struggled every time I used it.

These are the only issues I had with my installation:
1. One of the grease zerks was broken out of the plastic motor housing when the jacks arrived. From reading other reviews, that appears to be a fairly common issue. I'll pick up a zerk with larger threads and take care of that.
2. Six of the eight wires were not long enough for me. It wasn't a big deal to pick up some wire and lengthen them, but if they had been 10 feet long instead of 7 feet long, the installation would have been a little easier.
3. When the jacks are fully retracted, the bottom tube (without the foot installed) is about 4-6 inches up inside the opening on the trailer. The jacks have 21 inches of stroke, so this shouldn't be a big deal. I'll just have 15-18 inches of stroke instead. I could remedy this by cutting the existing brackets off my trailer and welding on the provided brackets lower, but that is a lot of unnecessary work.

All in all, this is a great product, and I look forward to using the jacks. The single motor Atwood jack that came on the trailer has been my greatest source of dissatisfaction since the day I bought the trailer.

Thanks to Ultra-Fab and E-Trailer.310498

One year later these jacks are still working great. Raising my fifth wheel is no longer a stressful event. The fifth wheel manufacturers would be smart to install these jacks on new units instead of the crappy one motor jack systems. Thanks again to Ultra-Fab and ETrailer!

Recieved the shipment very quick from Etrailer. When I removed the original landing gear, my existing brackets were positioned correctly for the new gear, so installation was very easy. Raised the 5th wheel and put jack standed under the main frame. removed old gear and bolted new in existing brackets. Wired it all up. I mounted the switches and after connecting found I wanted them to operate opposite of how I mounted them, instead of removing switch, just swapped the wires going to the jack to reverse polarity, much easier. Jacks lift our 14k 5th wheel much easier than the original gear and make leveling it super easy. Great product1240299

Just received, haven't put them on as yet but they look heavy duty..very fast delivery..1459294

The Ultra Fab Fifth Wheel Landing Gear is a great addition to my camper. Installation was simple and easy. Works great and makes leveling our Fifth Wheel so much easier and quicker.
I recommend etrailer for anyone needing parts or accessories. 246138

These are great jacks for my 5th wheel. I have them wired independently so I can use them to help level my rig. I haven’t had any issue with them. I would order these again if I needed to.1301358
