When a landing gear leg gets bent, corroded, or stripped beyond repair, you need an exact OEM replacement -- not a universal workaround. The Lippert Components 119101 is the factory Venture follow leg designed to slot directly back into your existing Lippert landing gear assembly, restoring full leveling function without fabrication or guesswork.
Lippert Components is the dominant supplier of slide-outs, leveling systems, and landing gear to the North American RV industry. The Venture series of electric and manual landing gear is one of the most common 5th wheel stabilizer platforms on the market, found on trailers built by Forest River, Keystone, Heartland, Grand Design, Coachmen, and dozens of other manufacturers.
This 119101 leg is the follow leg -- the inner telescoping tube that extends downward from the main housing as the jack is deployed. It is the component most likely to sustain damage from road debris impact, overextension, or corrosion at the contact point with the ground. Replacing only the follow leg is a practical repair that saves the cost of replacing the entire landing gear assembly.
Factory Lippert part number 119101. Drops directly into existing Venture landing gear housings without drilling or modification.
One follow leg per order. Order two if you need to replace both driver-side and curb-side legs at the same time.
At 33.5 inches long, this leg matches the factory travel and extension range of the Venture landing gear series.
Heavy-duty steel tube construction consistent with Lippert's OEM landing gear components, rated to handle the static tongue loads of a fully loaded 5th wheel trailer.
On a scissor-style or column-style RV landing gear assembly, the mechanism typically consists of two main parts: the outer housing (which is bolted to the trailer frame) and the inner follow leg (which slides or threads downward to contact the ground). The follow leg bears the full compressive load of the trailer's tongue weight during setup and leveling.
Because the follow leg is the component in direct contact with pavement, gravel, and ground moisture, it is particularly vulnerable to:
Replacing the follow leg restores full travel range and load capacity when the housing and motor are still in serviceable condition.
The Lippert 119101 is designed for use in Lippert's Venture series landing gear. Lippert supplies landing gear under several brand names and part-number families to OEM trailer manufacturers. To confirm this is the correct leg for your specific landing gear assembly:
Replacing a Venture follow leg is a manageable DIY repair for an RV owner comfortable with basic hand tools. General procedure:
