When the gear mechanism on your Kwikee electric entry step wears out or strips, the entire step system can fail to extend or retract reliably. Lippert part 94-5411 (also listed as 369354) is the OEM-spec replacement gear engineered specifically for Kwikee 24 and 25 series triple-step assemblies. Restoring proper gear engagement gets your steps cycling smoothly again without replacing the entire step unit.
A stripped or cracked step gear is one of the most common failure points on Kwikee electric entry steps. The gear transfers motor torque into the step extension and retraction cycle, and even minor wear can cause grinding, partial extension, or a step that refuses to retract -- all serious safety concerns.
Lippert 94-5411 is a direct OEM-sourced replacement that matches the original tooth profile and dimensions of the gear used in Kwikee 24 and 25 series triple-step systems. No modification, drilling, or adapter hardware required -- the gear seats into the existing mechanism and restores normal operation.
Engineered to Kwikee 24/25 series factory tolerances. Drops in without modification to the step chassis or motor assembly.
Specific to three-step Kwikee entry step assemblies -- not a universal part. Correct fitment before ordering.
Built to handle the repeated cycling demands of daily RV entry and exit, including slide-in and motorhome applications.
Backed by a limited 1-year manufacturer warranty through Lippert, the same coverage as OEM step components.
This gear is designed exclusively for Kwikee 24 and 25 series triple entry step assemblies. Kwikee steps are found on a wide range of travel trailers, fifth wheels, Class A and Class C motorhomes from manufacturers including Forest River, Keystone, Coachmen, and many others.
If you have a Kwikee 24 or 25 series single or double step, this gear is not the correct replacement. Single and double step assemblies use a different gear profile and part number.
Replacing the step gear is a mechanical repair that requires disassembling the step drive mechanism. Most DIY-capable RV owners can complete the job with basic hand tools. The process generally involves:
Generic replacement gears sourced from non-OEM suppliers may differ slightly in tooth count, pitch, or material hardness -- leading to premature wear or incompatibility with the Kwikee drive system. Lippert 94-5411 is sourced from the same supply chain as the original component, ensuring the tooth profile and material spec match what Kwikee engineered for this step series.
