Front leg dual motors

Front leg dual motors

I just finished installing the second electric motor on the Montana.

I got supper slick and used a $25 electric winch relay and run both motors at the same time.

This worked good except for one little problem.

Keystone or Lippert didn’t use the motor the leg manufacturer supplies they used a cheap China model. Well it runs at a different speed about 1/3 faster.

So I installed a second motor from the leg manufacturer. All works very well now.

I have always found that about hour after I use a Chinese Motor, I have to run it again?
