Replacement back cover for the drive head (motor side) of Lippert Edge RV awnings. Restores a clean, finished appearance and shields the drive head from dirt and weather exposure. Black. Not a universal fit — specific to Lippert Edge awning drive heads.
The Lippert 771408 replaces the back cover on the drive head of a Lippert Edge RV awning — the motor-powered end of the awning arm assembly. Paired with the matching front cover, these two pieces fully enclose and protect the drive head components from sun, rain, and road debris. When the original back cover cracks or breaks, this part restores the finished appearance and protection of the awning arm without replacing the entire head assembly.
Lippert Edge awning head covers come in several distinct configurations. The drive head is the motor-powered end of the awning arm; the idler head is the opposite, non-motorized end. Front and back covers are also separate parts on each end: 771407 — Front cover, drive head (motor side) 771408 (this product) — Back cover, drive head (motor side) 771413 — Back cover, idler head If you're not sure which cover you need, a photo of the damaged cover and its location on the awning arm can help confirm the correct part before ordering.

To access and replace the cover, extend the awning out far enough to reach the mounting screw behind the cover. Remove the screw, then pull the front and back covers off the awning arm. Installation is the reverse of removal.
