LCI hydraulic pump to motor coupler

Other than Lippert is there any other source

For the shaft coupler between
The motor and the hydraulic pump.

I doubt that Lippert make their own couplers. A farm supply store that specializes in hydraulics should be able to fix you up with the proper coupler.

Gary if it were me, access is not easy, I would take it to a machine shop and have it revere engineed of stronger matieral, like a 4140 steel. I've seen pictures of the failure where one ear or both are sheared off? I think it would be better for the motor to stall and open a breaker than the coupling to shear and leave it worthless? Besides Lippert keeps claiming you can't buy parts, you must buy the Shainghai pump and motor.

Dave you're right, I don't think Lippert makes any of the hyd pump. I think its a knockoff of Parker Hanifin equipment and completely made in China!

Check mcmaster-carr or grainger for your coupling.

Lots of units, 5ers and class A's have this pump. Please post how you make out and source of coupler. This as you know is not a standard item for other mfgrs. Not sure why it didn't just extend from the motor but oh well. Did you disassemble it?
