Question:

I need to replace the motor for my power tongue jack and I wondered if this part is compatible. I cant find the exact same one as mine. Mine is Model No. 1300 power tongue jack. Lifting capacity - 2500 Lb It is a manufactured by Lippert with Venture components. The photo of the LG-217884 looks like mine but I cant see the splines on the shaft to see if they are vertical like mine. I dont really need the gear box. I appreciate your help.

Expert Reply:

The part you referenced, Stromberg-Carlson Motor and Switch Kit for Landing Gear # LG-217884, is for
converting Stromberg-Carlson manual landing gear to powered, or to replace the motor and switch on their # LG-1 electric landing gear. It is not suitable as a replacement motor for a tongue jack.

My contact at Lippert advises that they do not offer a replacement motor for their powered tongue jacks. These units are not user-serviceable except for exterior components such as power switches and covers.

We do offer the Stromberg Carlson Electric A-Frame Tongue Jack # JET-2500, which is rated for 2500-lbs lift and 18-inches of vertical travel, and that includes the required mounting hardware to attach to your trailer tongue.

I have included a review video for your reference.
