Yesterday evening I was hooking our BC to hitch and I noticed the right {looking from the front} leg was not moving up or down. The left leg was moving. I opened the front compartment under the king pin and noticed the motor turning, but the shaft going to the right leg not turning. It was getting late, I got my flashlight and found that the bolt & nut connecting the shaft to the motor was laying on the compartment floor. It looked like the bolt had broken. I go to my shop to try and find the correct size, but didn't have one. I found one a little smaller in dia. and was able to insert it and get both legs working again. I will replace with correct one later today.
I guess this nut and bolt needs to be put on my inspection list of things to keep and eye on. Has anyone else had the issue before?
Once I got both legs working again, I had to get them back in sync. That process is simple now, but it made me think for awhile about how to do.
