Need rear landing jack assembly... Lippert broke

I have 2008 Heartland Cyclone 4012. It has the electric rear stablizing jack. The gear box for the electric motor broke. The shaft in the reduction gear broke. I called Lippert and the local RV shop. They do not sell a replacement motor/gearbox. So, I'm thinking of replacing the entire electric stablizing jack with a different model. Any recommendations? I'm hoping to do this rather inexpensively. Or if anyone knows of where I can buy a replacement motor/gearbox for the Lippert?

Thanks always!!!

Found a used one. Love the internet!

I had thought about just going manual with a drill. Thanks!

If you are talking about a single stabilizer in the back....the kind that has 2 feet driven by a single motor thru an acme threaded rod?????

If that is what you need, I just had to replace one but found that E-trailer sells a brand called Ultra-Fab for almost half the cost of Lippert. I did some digging and discovered Lippert makes these units for Ultra-fab. I bought it and it actually came in a Lippert box and has a Lippert sticker on it.

I caught a free-shipping campaign on E-trailer and got it delivered for about $400, compared to over $750 with shipping from Lippert.

(I'm talking about the entire assembly here, not just the motor)

Get manual ones and a cordless drill.

Update: Lippert does sell the replacement motor for $366. So, I I'll probably go that route. I'll look on ebay to see if I can find a ussed one for sale.
