Spring Rivet for Viking/Coachmen L&W Lift Systems

This is the replacement Spring Rivet for the flexible pusher springs used in Viking and Coachmen pop-up campers with the L&W lift system. This rivet is a critical piece of hardware that is installed on the end of the spring.

According to the repair manual, the original spring rivet must be removed from the old spring to be reused on a new one. However, removing a rivet often requires drilling or grinding, which can damage or destroy it. This new rivet is the perfect replacement to complete your repair without needing to salvage the old part, ensuring a solid connection point for the spring within the lift system.

Product Details:

  • Function: Secures the end of the flexible pusher spring.
  • One-Time-Use Part: A new rivet is often required to complete a spring replacement if the old one is damaged during removal.
  • Compatibility: For Viking and Coachmen campers using the L&W lift system.
  • Sold Individually.

Installation Note: The L&W repair manual outlines the steps for replacing this specific rivet. It is installed after the new spring has been placed in the spring track.

Installation: Replacing a Spring Rivet

Safety: Prop the roof with solid supports before servicing. After any repair, raise and lower the roof several times and confirm the door seats properly.

  1. Raise the roof and brace it securely.
  2. Crank the winch down 4–5 turns.
  3. Remove the lift arm (procedure in the guide).
  4. Remove the spring rivet on the end of the spring and install the new one.
  5. Reverse the previous steps and adjust the final roof height.
