Leaking Atwood Landing Gear Motor
Seen lots of posts of gear issues here, but not anything like the problem I am having. I have a 2003 Alfa Sun 32 with a single motor Atwood landing gear system. Never had problems until last unhook; when I went to raise it to pull my truck away it went up REAL slow and sounded like it was working extra hard. No reason for that as it is parked on level concrete in a pole barn. At first I was 'assuming' it was the gear box but it did not make any grinding noises. After further inspection and crawling into the forward compartment to get a better look I noticed that the section of the motor between the motor and gearbox had leaked fluid. Anyone have this issue? I know replacement parts are out there; I found a gearbox actually on Amazon. I am thinking if the motor needs replacement to replace the gearbox at the same time since I will have it all apart. Any ideas or suggestions?
Thank all!
