| Part | Visual cue | Match before ordering |
|---|---|---|
| Drive slug | Elongated slotted driver inside the spring track | Listed Jayco sizes: 3/4" or 7/8". Match the existing slug and track; these labels are not the slug's length. |
| Push spring / push rod | Long flexible coil feeding into the post | Overall length and end/rivet details. Do not substitute a winch pawl spring. |
| Lift post | Nested telescoping metal sections | Total stage count, closed length, mounting points, and part number. |
| Track & curved bracket | Horizontal channel and corner guide | Track size, length, handedness, pulley count, and mounting-hole positions. |
| Lift cable & harness | Main cable, square harness, and four corner cables | Cable location, length, diameter, and end fittings. Keep main and corner cables distinct. |
