Overview

About landing gear repair.

Landing gear that jams, collapses or won't crank creates a hazard and blocks coupling. Repair restores safe operation.

A mobile mechanic can look at the unit where it stands, whether that is the roadside, a yard or a jobsite. That can avoid a tow and shorten downtime when the fault is suited to on-site work.

Know before you call

Causes and good habits.

These are possibilities, not a diagnosis. The only way to know is to test the unit.

Possible causes

  • Worn gearbox or stripped gears
  • Bent legs from rough coupling
  • Lack of lubrication

Practical tips

  • Grease gear per the service plan
  • Keep legs raised and locked when on the road
Limits and safety

What to expect.

Support the trailer safely. Never work under an unsupported trailer.

On-site repair depends on the fault, parts, vehicle condition, safety and service feasibility.
