Slide out motor cross reference

[Sandrofelisio]

Hi guys,
I have to replace my actual rv slideout motor.
It is installed on a Gulfstream Independence 2007.

This is the data about it:
POWER GEAR
P/N 553833
S/N 0603891306
US PAT: 5,833,296

Additional sticker
PART nr: #130-1146
#B00507223
S/N 5M0009

I also contact the "producer" Lippert and they told me the reference number is: 379204

The problem is that many motors cost is from 180$ to 350$ but this model (very similar to others) is 900$!!

Please give me a link to the correct replacement or to a functional replacement even if not the same speed (if it is slower for me is ok as example)...!

Thanks a lot!
Sandro

The motor and gearbox look separate. If the problem is actually the motor, it can likely be rebuilt. 2nd option is to spec the motor and buy a replacement on line. I doubt power gear manufactures the motor BTW.

Find a salvage dealer on the internet to purchase the motor and you will save yourself a lot of dough. I've had to replace two motor gearbox assemblies (broken gearbox housing)
and paid $125 for one and $150 for the other.
