Great question. When replacing a gear pack like Lippert 2 x 3 and 3x3 Standard Slide-Out Gearpack # LC140409. Follow these straight forward steps:

1. Run slide-out room half way out.
2. Place a jack under the inner arm of the slide-out.
3. Jack room up just enough to remove pressure off the gear pack.
4. Remove drive bolt from the cross shaft.
5. Remove bolts which hold the gear pack assembly in place on the outer rail.
6. Drop out the damaged or worn out gear pack.
7. Install the new gear pack.
8. Install bolts to hold gear pack assembly in place on the outer rail.
9. Install cross shaft and bolt.
10. Gear pack assembly does not need to be torqued down, only adequately and securely tightened.
