Could Ultra Fab Dual Motor Landing Gear Replace Lippert Landing Gear

Question:

Good afternoon. I have a 2019 Jayco HT 30.5ckts fifth wheel. I have had to replace the follow leg with the LC179014 from E-trailer. I am thinking about upgrading to dual motor landing legs. Will the Ultra Fab system mount the same way that the LC179014 does? Outside tabs are 17 1/2and inside are 15 1/2. I could not find those dimensions in the specs nor the video like the shown on the LC179014 does. I really like the Reese Bulldog system but you are not showing it available at this time. I did find an old video that was made at one time by e-trailer.

Ultra Fab uses a unique mounting bracket dimension that does not match the Lippert or Reese systems surprisingly. You could still uses the part # UF17-943010 but you'd have to have the brackets on your trailer moved to match the landing gear. Hopefully we get the Reese system again soon but at this time it's not available.

The distance on the Ultra Fab landing gear mounting brackets is instead 20-1/4 inch instead of the 17-1/2 dimension that you have.
