Replacement Landing Gear Leg Needed!

Help Please! Getting ready to leave for Thanksgiving and my "landing gear" gear broke. Not sure how to find the make and model. It is the passenger side leg, not the motorized side. Rig is a 2010 Laredo 316RL. Hope someone can help. Thanks!

Is the landing leg broken? the gear set at the top of the leg? or is the shear pin "sheared"? You probably don't need to replace the landing gear leg unless you physically damaged it be backing into something or bending it. The other problems can likely be repaired with a quick kit installation or a shear pin replacement.

Turbo, look up at the drive shaft that connects the two legs. On the "slave" side there is a bolt, think shear pin, that will be right at the very end. It is probably sheared. Easy peasy fix. Get back to us.

Thanks for the quick reply's! Drive shaft is not the problem. I can physically move the "slave leg" up and down. Sounds like a stripped gear when doing so. I think the threaded shaft may be bent but may also be a sheared pin issue. At any rate how do I tell who the manufacture is?? I realize it may be more costly to replace the leg but may be my quickest solution! Thanks again!

Look at the motor for any information. Your going to have to know the length of the outer tube to get the correct one.

UPDATE.
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! We were able to have a good one in spite of the broken landing gear. I did have to replace the leg because either the extension nut or threaded rod was stripped. Amazon came through with two day delivery (actually received next day). Installed and happy again! Thanks for the help!
