Keep your RV slide-out moving smoothly and reliably. The Lippert 368840 is a direct-replacement 24-tooth spur gear engineered for electric 2x3 and 3x3 through-frame slide-out systems. When a worn, stripped, or broken drive gear is the cause of a stuck or jerky slide-out, this is the OEM-spec part that gets you back on the road without replacing the entire mechanism.
The 368840 spur gear is built to Lippert's original specifications for their electric through-frame slide-out drive systems, covering both the 2x3 and 3x3 rail configurations. The 24-tooth gear profile ensures continuous, consistent tooth engagement throughout the full travel of your slide-out -- no skipping, binding, or uneven extension.
This gear is cross-referenced under Lippert manufacturer reference number 3010000400 and Winnebago part number 161662 01 706, making it a confirmed fit for many Winnebago-built coaches that used Lippert through-frame slide mechanics.
Matches Lippert factory specifications for 2x3 and 3x3 electric through-frame slide-out drive systems -- no modifications needed.
Full 24-tooth spur gear design delivers continuous, even engagement for smooth and reliable slide-out extension and retraction.
Listed under Lippert ref 3010000400 and Winnebago part 161662 01 706 for confident fitment verification across multiple coach brands.
Weighs approximately 1 lb., keeping replacement simple and the drive system balanced for consistent slide-out operation.
The drive spur gear on a through-frame slide-out system takes on significant load every time the room is extended or retracted. Over years of use -- especially if the slide has been operated while the RV is not level, or if debris has entered the drive channel -- gear teeth can wear flat, chip, or strip entirely. Common signs that the spur gear needs replacement include:
Before ordering, confirm your slide-out system uses a through-frame electric drive with either a 2x3 or 3x3 rail. The through-frame system routes the slide mechanism through the coach frame rails and uses a motor-driven gear-and-rack system to move the room. This gear is not intended for Lippert cable-actuated or hydraulic slide systems.
Spur gear replacement on a through-frame slide-out requires the slide room to be fully retracted and the drive motor to be disconnected before disassembly. The gear is typically retained on the drive shaft by a key and set screw or snap ring depending on the specific motor/gearbox combination used in your coach. Verify the shaft diameter and retention method on your existing unit before ordering to confirm compatibility.
