Atwood Level Legs discontinued

Atwood who was bought by Lippert has discontinued the manufacture of the Level Leg system, and the parts. I had my system replaced in May 2017, have had a failure in March 2018. They are under warranty but a replacement is no longer available. My options now are to replace the system again with a hydraulic spring retraction system $$$$.

Be aware anyone who has one of these systems is going to face this in the future.

When mine finally go, I am going to try getting it rebuilt at an electric motor / starter shop. What is the failure you experienced?

Rear DS was making a lot of noise, grinding, popping, this went on for some time finally it would not retract with the other legs. I was able to retract it by it's self, but have quit using the system since I do not want to get stuck because I can't retrieve it.

I had the whole system replaced with an updated on in May 2017. I was having trouble with the old system had replaced one leg, rebuilt another leg, and a third one was starting to give me trouble. If I had known that the system was discontinued I would not have replaced it, and gone another way.

Such is life living on the road in an RV.

Hi ! Welcome to IRV2! We're sure glad you joined the gang!

It seems that if it's still in warranty they would have to make it right somehow!

Good luck, happy trails, and God bless!

Thanks for the heads up. We've been lucky w/ours but I know it's only a matter of time.
