Question:

What I do NOT understand that your expert says I CAN install a motor to my follow legwhich has NO gear box, but it is impossible to have a dual motor landing set up. Unless I am missing something, if I install a follow leg motor that IS a dual motor set up isnt it?

Expert Reply:

If you are looking for a way to convert your landing to a dual motor setup there's really no way to do that without replacing the follow leg with a lead leg, adding a motor and gear box, adding an additional switch and eliminating the cross shaft.

For a lead leg you would need part # LC179013, for a gear box # LG-179015 and then motor # LC142178 and switch kit # LG-145236.

The follower leg cannot have a gear box attached to it.
