The Lippert landing gear bracket # LC113511 is 2" long x 3-1/2" wide x 4-1/2" tall just like # LG-Brackets. They are roughly 3/16 inches thick but that can vary some so a range of 1/8 to 3/16 inches would cover it. For the most part landing gear is all dimensionally the same which is why many of the parts are interchangeable amongst the different brands. You could go with either of the above part numbers and they would work.

Both are also raw steel, not galvanized, and are meant to be welded on. As you probably know, galvanized steel can be welded but it gives off toxic fumes and requires a skilled welder with galvanized welding experience. So that is why they make them from raw steel.
