Question:
Is there a replacement leg that fits a Lippert tongue jack Model 1817941? Mine is bent and is stressing the motor when I retract the leg.

Hey Jim, thanks for reaching out!
The Lippert Electric Trailer Jack with Footplate # LC285318 (the manufacturer part is 1817941) doesn't have a replacement inner leg (most trailer tongue jacks don't), so if the leg is what's messed up then you'll need to replace the entire jack itself.
You can either look into the 1-year warranty if the jack falls under this and the bend is a defect, you can replace the jack with the same one, or I can recommend a different one if you'd like. For a different brand I recommend checking out the Ultra-Fab Electric A-Frame Jack # UF38-944014 because it has a faster time for operation.
