5th Wheel Trailer Landing Gear Installation with Dual Motors

Updated 12/28/2015 | Published 12/24/2015

Question:

On your bulldog 5th wheel landing gear can you turn the motors in the opposite way to line up with the mounting on mine with the motors facing the way that I have room for? I need the motors to face the outward position from what i can tell from your pictures. thanks

On a set of landing gear like Reese/Bulldog # RP500708 the motors will mount to the jack tubes in only one way. However, the entire jack tube can be rotated and installed on the trailer turned 90-degrees, with the motors facing inward or outward (left or right). The jack tube's welded tabs (see photo) prevent the jacks from slipping in the trailer's mounts.
