Ellen: Hey everyone, I'm Ellen here at etrailer.com, and today we're taking a quick look at the replacement head pin for Solera power awning gear drive head. Now this is going to be a direct replacement from Lippert for your drive gear head, this is going to be the pin that actually turns that fabric roller so that you can get your awning rolled out and back in without any issues. So something happened, this got bent or damaged somewhere along the way, or as you we're trying to replace some other components, this got broken. This is going to be a direct replacement for that pin.It's a half inch diameter and it measures about four inches long, just for referenced there. Has a little hole there to connect to our Cotter pin for that fabric roller, and then there are these little channels for our clip to fit into. So related items that you might need with this would be the bushing, and also that retaining clip.
Now these two things are related products on the product page for this on etrailer.com, so if you need the bushing and the retaining clip, you can pick those up separately.Basically that clip just pops all the way down on there, I just don't want to push it on and then not be able to get it back off, but that's going to do it for our look at the replacement head pin for Solera power awning gear drive head. If you need any other replacement parts for any of your Lippert components, you can always check etrailer.com, and thanks for watching..

Oh wow! Looks like you changed out that pin just in time. I'd say it was holding onto hopes and dreams by the time you swapped it out. I'm glad the new pin was a perfect fit and did the trick for ya!

That's great, Bruce! Glad everything is on the up and up with the awning again. How has Florida weather been, by the way? Unusually cool like it's been here in Missouri?

I reached out to my contact at Lippert, and based on your situation it seems like you have one of their new motors. This part is for their older style motors. We were able to get the new Gear Drive Head added to our website, part # 643917. This part is for their new line of awning motors.

Poor Quality, the replacement pin in made out of aluminum and eventually rounds the end or strips.
