When your fifth wheel landing gear stops responding or grinds on the way down, the gearbox is often the culprit. The Lippert 276602 is a direct-replacement aluminum gearbox engineered for universal mount landing gear assemblies used on fifth wheel trailers. It restores full landing gear function without replacing the entire leg assembly -- saving time, money, and shop labor.

The Right Gearbox for Lippert Universal Mount Landing Gear

The 276602 gearbox slots into Lippert universal mount landing gear systems used across a wide range of fifth wheel brands. If your landing gear is struggling to extend or retract, making grinding noises, or has completely failed, this aluminum gearbox is the serviceable component most likely to restore operation. At just 5 lbs., it ships quickly and installs with basic hand tools.

This part is also cross-referenced by major OEM RV manufacturers under their own part numbers, making it one of the most widely applicable landing gear gearboxes in the fifth wheel segment.

Aluminum Construction

Lightweight yet durable aluminum housing stands up to road vibration, weather, and the repetitive load cycles of daily travel use.

Universal Mount Fitment

Designed specifically for Lippert universal mount landing gear legs found on hundreds of fifth wheel trailer models from multiple manufacturers.

Cross-Brand Compatibility

Also fits select Atwood and Stromberg Carlson electric landing gear assemblies, making it useful for multi-brand service and parts inventory.

Minimal Assembly Required

Ships ready to install with minimal prep. No specialized tools or machining needed for a standard DIY replacement job.

OEM Cross-Reference Part Numbers

This gearbox is sold under several OEM part numbers by major RV manufacturers. If your coach came from one of the brands below, this is the correct replacement unit:

  • Grand Design RV: Part Number 160040
  • Jayco: Part Number 0235838
  • Keystone RV: Part Number 340587
  • Winnebago: Part Number 2T059000036
  • Lippert / LCI Direct: 276602 (also listed as 71-3802)
DIY-Friendly Replacement: Swapping a landing gear gearbox is one of the more approachable fifth wheel repairs. With the gear in the retracted position, basic hand tools, and 30-60 minutes, most owners can complete this job without a service appointment.

Compatible Landing Gear Brands

The 276602 is confirmed to work with the following landing gear systems:

  • Lippert electric landing gear assemblies (universal mount)
  • Atwood electric landing gear assemblies
  • Stromberg Carlson electric landing gear assemblies
Verify Your Mount Style: This gearbox is specifically for universal mount landing gear configurations. If your fifth wheel uses a weld-on or bolt-on frame-specific leg design that is not the universal mount style, confirm your leg model before ordering. The universal mount style is the most common configuration on contemporary fifth wheel trailers.

Installation Tips

Maintenance and Installation Notes:
  • Always retract landing gear fully before beginning gearbox removal to reduce spring tension and weight load on the assembly.
  • Disconnect shore power and any electric drive connection before servicing.
  • Inspect the drive tube, pin, and motor coupling for wear while the gearbox is off -- replace worn components at the same time to avoid a repeat repair.
  • Apply a light coat of multi-purpose grease to the gear teeth and output shaft before reassembly.
  • Cycle the gear up and down through 2-3 full strokes after installation to confirm smooth engagement.

Important Information
  • This gearbox is designed for universal mount fifth wheel landing gear only -- confirm your gear style before ordering.
  • Always disconnect electric power to the landing gear drive system before beginning any disassembly.
  • This part does not include the electric motor, landing gear legs, or any frame hardware. It is a gearbox replacement only.
  • If landing gear failure is accompanied by a blown fuse or motor failure, inspect and replace the motor separately -- a damaged gearbox can stress the motor and vice versa.
  • Not intended for use on travel trailers, motorhomes, or tongue-jack stabilizer systems.
  • Confirm OEM cross-reference part number with your RV manufacturer if fitment is uncertain prior to installation.
