Today, we're gonna take a look at the replacement gear box and linkage for the Lippert components 2006 to current Kwikee electric steps. Now, this will replace the gear box and the curved A-linkage for Lippert components Kwikee electric steps, and you can tell if you have the A-linkage on your steps because there will be an A that's embossed on the linkage arm. This part here is designed to fit the 2006 to current Kwikee 22, 23, 27, 28A, 30, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 38, and 40 series steps. So it does fit a wide range of the Kwikee steps. Does come with the two washers to help you install it, but that should do it for the review on the replacement gearbox and A-linkage for the Lippert components 2006 to current Kwikee electric steps.

Durable, zinc-plated construction.Mike B. with etrailer verified that this was the correct part.I got the part on time and installed it works great thanks etrailer and Mike B.
Totally disappointed that the phone representative advised me to replace the gearbox when the step motor was the problem. I clearly described the problem but his suggestion was wrong. I installed the gearbox as preventative maintenance and then bought a replacement step motor from another online vendor when etrailer only offered me a 5% discount on a replacement motor. I will never use etrailer for technical advice.
Joanne was very knowledgeable and professional. She was able to locate a suitable replacement for a linkage for the steps for my 20 year old RV. Part was simple to install and was ordered, shipped and delivered in less than a week. Outstanding service!!
Product did not solve any issues because I was not told the truth concerning delivery information. Was promised a Friday delivery with extra cost. The extra was to fast forward the order in house and not about delivery. I will be in MA before product arrives in NC.
Part was as advertised. Installation was straightforward.
Very helpful with my installation when having difficulty aligning arm!
Perfect match. You may need to remove the gear from your old mechanism and install in this replacement to work.
Looks well made.

Works as if it always belonged there. Perfect fit!
Arrived very quickly and was fair easy to install.
As advertised, easy to install. Have it for 1 year, no problems
This gearbox worked great.
The gear box works perfectly but it was actually the motor causing the issue. Motor replaced and steps work great.
Bought gearbox and motor together after some modification (the bolts were too narrow for gear box, had too reuse the old bolts and widen the bolt holes) the gearbox and motor work great. Much faster than old assembly and quiet.
Part won’t fit my 1999 Winnebago. E trailer does not carry anything to fit my RV. My step is a series 32 but, they’re different types of this series. They said mine is too old to carry parts for.
This is the exact replacement for my Itasca Nation 24J step. The old unit failed at the attachment to the step not in the gears so it was a very easy replacement! Remove the old unit, switch out the motor from the old unit to the new unit (might buy a spare motor for future step issues), lined up the swing arm, put the pin in and my step is now fixed. I would say a few directions in the box would be helpful but I'm the kind who takes a picture before removing the part so I can be sure I'm putting it back in correctly. One suggestion to installers, don't tighten the four nuts until everything is linked up and make the motor move into the extended position to link everything up at first. Take your time this is a very simple repair, well worth the time in the driveway instead of taking to an RV repair location.

Perfect! No problems after a year! Great replacement part.
The arm on it is longer than the one on my rv. I had to use my old gear box with the new motor. I could not get the pin installed because it traveled to far.
Good service
The gearbox and motor that you advertised as compatible weren't. The bolts supplied with the motor to bolt to the gearbox were 3/16 in. while the gearbox required 10 mm bolts. I had to do some machine work on the motor to allow the 10 mm bolts to fit. After the installation, the steps worked.

Hey Chuck, can you tell me what series step you have?
The replacement part worked but it took some alterations. The person on the phone did warn us. I appreciated that she went the route of least $$$. Our back up plan was to have to order a few other newer replacements if this didn’t work. Nice of her to help with our find. Your company will be my first place in looking for future parts.

Yes have had no issues with step going in or out after gear replacement
The shipment included a gear box for the electric step on our RV, which solved my problem and has performed without problems.
All of my transactions with etrailer have been outstanding. Your product videos and supplementary information are great. Not many companies follow up like you do.
Keep up the good work.
The product worked perfect. I had a set of kwikee steep on my class a campers they would not retract all the way and you could hear it skipping a broken tooth on the gear in the gear box that operated the stairs which is was driven by a motor. I had called a couple suppliers for a new gear box and they both told me I needed to order the a complete kit for that series stairs that means changing the door sensor the motor rewiring etc well 300 bucks and a lot more labor. Called Megham at e-trailer who was great she did some research found me a gearbox that would work about 2 hours of my time. E-trailer never fails to deliver for me and Meghsn is great and knows what she is doing. After listening to the other 2 places I wasn't sure e-trailers solutions was going to work how could something work save me over 200 bucks and 2 hours of my time but Meghan and e-trailer came though.. now I,m thinking why did I even call the other places. Thanks etrailer.
etrailer confirmed over the phone this wa correct part I needed. Was delivered in 3 days 1 day ahead of estimated delivery. Install not complicated. Great service from etrailer staff again
Trevor was excellent finding the part I needed (manufacturer said I needed a way to expensive upgrade) then he made sure I received the part in the right place and the right time which is not always easy when you full time RV!
Thanks Trevor!
Probably did not need to replace the one on the coach but when doing the controller board and motor I said why not. In hindsight it was a good choice as the one on the coach had some teeth missing upon further inspection.
