Faster Landing Gear
Finding I would like the landing gear on my 5er to be a bit quicker. It struggles at times even on full battery charge if I have the trailer heavily loaded. Its a single motor setup. What are best ...

Resurrecting an old thread. Greased the heck out of the landing gear last weekend but absolutely NO change in speed. Still slow as a snail... Manufacturer confirmed it is a Lippert setup and its a single motor. I just think its undersized.
Might see if you can pull the motor and find a larger one with the same bolt pattern but a bit more umph to it. 'Course if the gear ratio in the legs' heads is too low, it won't change speed much, just work easier. Might have to re-wire with heavier gauge wire for more amperage...
If you switched to hydraulics, Bulldog has just come out with a "high-speed" landing leg, that's much faster than other mfrs' legs...according to the ad I saw.
