Awesome. Good Luck installing them. I had to modify mine and re-weld the stop tabs since I found that easier than redoing the mounting channel brackets onto the frame on my trailer. If you do have to re-weld anything on the square tubing of the landing gear.....do yourself a favor and DISASSEMBLE the landing gear legs completely to avoid any heating issues with the other components. Just my opinion.
Good Luck
PS....the motors configured in torque are PLENTY FAST, even faster than the original motor/slave setup I had. Unless you are an impatient guy or just love to over stress the landing gear, I think the torque setup is plenty fast plus you get the advantage of 10k lift.
I feel like I am rambling but also remember that although the motors operate independently of one another (pretty sure you know this) you can't lift one side more than another since you risk the possibility of cracking your frame or tweaking something else. I seem to recall the MAX in deviation is a few inches tops. Don't hold me to it but keep that in mind.
