EQ Systems STABI-LITE 8450AM is an electric, two-leg stabilizing system for compatible Mercedes Sprinter-based motorhomes. Unlike a hydraulic leveling system, it uses motor-driven screw jacks to steady a parked coach. The parts guide distinguishes the 7588 leg assembly from its 6836 replacement motor and gearbox, and links the matching part carried by NewRVParts.

Identify the complete system first: EQ's installation manual addresses the related 8449/8449AM and 8450/8450AM families. The Sprinter 8450AM uses box-frame mounting geometry; Ford and other Class C channel-frame mounting brackets are a separate configuration. Match the RV chassis and original system label before ordering parts.

EQ Systems 6836 — replacement motor and gearbox

EQ's 2021 motor replacement chart lists 6836 as the assembly for earlier motor/gearbox number 853208J. The manufacturer does not offer the bare motor alone for that unit.

What is included with the STABI-LITE system?

Two electric stabilizer legsLeft and right sides of the chassis, with risers, clamps, fasteners and chassis-appropriate mounting. The manufacturer says the legs should fold rearward.
Protected controller & switch padEQ's installation guide requires these electrical items to be installed away from the weather. The switch-panel bracket is identified as part 2849.
System wiringController-to-motor harnesses are 7 ft and 12 ft; controller-to-switch harness is 16 ft and controller-to-battery harness is 8 ft. A 40-amp battery breaker is listed.
Safety interlocksThe system must prevent inappropriate extension with ignition/brake conditions according to the manufacturer's installation design. Stabilizers are not tire-service supports.

Electric stabilizer service checks

If a leg will not operate, EQ's troubleshooting guide directs technicians to verify the control switch, safety interlocks, controller power and ground, panel voltage, then power at the motor. If the motor is energized but the leg will not move, the gearbox or screw jack may be stuck; do not assume the motor is defective without checking the mechanism.

Keep screw and nut surfaces clean, and use the manufacturer-recommended dry-film silicone or PTFE lubricant after cleaning; oily or greasy lubricants attract debris. Never use stabilizer legs to lift the vehicle for tire service or work underneath a coach supported by extended stabilizers.
