We had a similar issue with ours. Venture is good to work with. Venture will sell directly to the public. But they will need the serial number of the failed LG leg. Thankfully, Venture places a flat sheet metal cap on the top of the LG with the lettering of VMC and the remaining numbers required by Venture. A new landing gear as of June 2012 is 165.00. They have also started using an aluminum case reduction gear which should be much more reliable that the old molded plastic. If you have a similar problem look for a flat metal cap on the top of your landing gear. Patty Everling at Venture can be called at 866-365-1957.
