Landing Gear Set w/ Handle - 36-1/2" Lift - 8,000 lbs
The product itself was great. It fit right in to the brackets from our old landing gear. We were able to use our existing motor as a cross fit with this gear. The gear box was even better than Lipperts as it was not plastic. The only issue we had with this was shipping. We ordered the part same day as our water pump because we were told it was in stock. Low and behold they changed ship date numerous times, with the excuse it was not easy to pick. Anyhow, two weeks later we finally got the part we ordered.
I have a 2000 komfort 26FS. It has original landing gear that was made by Atwood.Parts to repair are apparently no longer available. Did alot of research and this kit seemed to be a good replacement. It is a exact replacement. Took some time to get it installed as my 5th wheel has a wall and frame right next to landing gear. Original motor bolted up with replacement of original screws which were half inch to short. Four days to get delivered to Oregon. I would have given a five star review but I was missing square tubing that runs from gear box to other leg. Tubing is clearly pictured in discription photos.

Landing Gear Set - 36-1/2" Lift - 8,000 lbs
Perfect replacement, works great, excellent shipping time and service. Just wish I had got the electric motor that goes with the legs.
Ordered this from etrailer instead of other sites as I knew the shipping would be faster. Sure enough I got the item in 4 days on Thursday and Installed it on Sunday. Very quick and easy. Took longer to get all my tools and set up items together than the actual work. The item was a exact fit with installation being feeding the legs through the holes in the floor down from the inside and installing the 4 clamping bolts to hold them in, the gear box on the lead leg and the cross bar and motor. Now it purrs like a kitten when activated instead of clanking and creaking and blowing fuses. Actual install time was probably 1.5 hours taking my time and injecting extra grease into the gears and lead screw. These replacement units have a grease fitting for both which is great and should allow them to last forever! Being a safety freak I used a 3 ton jack with a 4X6 placed long ways to catch the I beams under the trailer then placed 3 ton car jacks under the frame also and for extra safety backed my truck bed under the tongue for extra security while I worked. The price was crazy great, the fit was excellent and the shipping was fast as usual. less money in parts and 2 hours of work probably easily saved me a grand over taking it to a RV repair shop! Thanks etrailer. Saved me again!

Lippert Electric Landing Gear Set - Weld On - 37" Lift - 6,000 lbs
Received the Kit in about four days (5 Stars for etrailer). The shipping container was severely damaged (2 stars for UPS), but at least it arrived. Did not appear any parts were missing. I ordered this kit because it was less expensive for the complete kit then to replace both landing gear legs separately. I left the 5th wheel attached to the truck and removed the old landing gear, gearbox, and motor prior to the arrival of the new system. Keep all your parts. The new kit arrived and was very easy and straight forward to install. However the tubular steel expansion rod that connects both landing gear legs was too short. I had to use the my old connection rod. Also the spacer used for the inside of the large side of the connection rod was not included with the kit. Had to use the old spacer in the old connecting rod. I used my old landing gear foot plates and pull pins on both landing gear leg extensions. Once installed, the kit worked flawlessly. I placed red marker tape on the landing gear extensions so not to top out the legs when lifting. Again save all your old parts.
I installed the jacks on my 23 ft. 5th wheel trailer, which was very simple and ran the electric wires direct to my battery compartment. The jacks work fine but are a bit too noisy for my liking. Not sure if all are this noisy but they do the job.

Bulldog Tandem Landing Gear Set - Drop Leg - 36" Lift - 8,000 lbs
Delivery was on time, but the box it arrived in didn’t fair we’ll and parts were hanging out of the box! But everything was accounted for and the parts were well wrapped. Installation was very easy. The only issue was the locking pins mount plate is tack welded to the primary leg that the motor moves up and down. Those mounting plates had to be removed to install the lead and follow jacks. A grinder made short work of that. I didn’t put the mounting plates back on, instead I used my spring loaded pins that were on the old legs, they were still in good working condition. Also I didn’t use the adjustable cross over rod that came in the package . I opted to use the one that was on my old jacks, it was constructed of heaven gauge tubing and didn’t have a much (slop) movement in it. Also did not use the plastic housing gear box, I purchased a aluminum house gear box from e-trailer a few months back and used that one keeping the plastic for a spare. Very satisfied.
The leg pin came out because of the design, it is not a strong locking mechanism to not pull it all the way out. (My wife pulled it all the way out) Afyer furthet inspection, in addition to poor locking mechanism, the size of the pin is not adequate for the specified weight of the jack.

Stromberg Carlson Electric Landing Gear Set - Weld On - 34-7/8" Lift - 6,500 lbs
Let me start by saying this review is about the product, not e-trailer. etrailer is great. I love doing business with them. Their prices beat anybody, and the free and FAST shipping is a bonus. Now to the review of the LG-3 landing gear. The pros of this product are they are a direct replacement for the Lippert system on my trailer. No cutting, drilling or welding. They fit in the original brackets. I installed them while camping in about 2 hours with simple hand tools. The cons are they are a direct replacement for the Lippert system on my trailer. They use the same weak motor, that struggles to lift my trailer. The kit was missing bolts and pins and I had to use my old hardware until I could get back to town to buy new hardware. I wanted to go with the Bulldog 10K system, but wanted something that work with my Lippert remote system. The original system failed. I suspect this one will too. Next time I will go with something heavy enough to do the job. Check out the before and after pics and the pic of what can happen when your jacks fail and you have to resort to using hydraulic jacks to lift your trailer. A $4000.00 repair that could have been much worse.
i had ordered the Stromberg Carlson landing gear to replace the broken set on my 5th wheel. When the package arrived the box was pretty rough and the motor was not in the package. I emailed etrailer late on a Thursday night and they emailed right back and by Friday morning they had already shipped out a replacement. on the following Monday UPS picked up the original and dropped off the replacement package. What an easy company to work with and the customer service is top notch. As for the landing gear set it seams to be better built than what the RV manufacture originally installed. Quality is better and the legs them selves are heavier so i am sure they will do a better job and should last longer than the original set. Very happy with the purchase and using etrailer.
