    Update: Couldn’t find jus the 90 degree gearbox, so I ended up calling and conversing with Lippert on my situation. Apparently on all the groups I belong to, no one has had an issue with that gearbox. I guess I get the prize for being the first. Go figure. Lippert did not have a replacement (117292) in stock to get to me in time as we have to move on down the road. So I purchased one from etrailer. Received it next day. HAPPY FACE.
    HERE IS WHERE THE NOT SO FUN BEGINS:
    Right out of the box I noticed the New and Improved motor and gearbox that mounts to the 90 degree gearbox that mounts to the slide rail was for lack of words, wiggling. Started a case number with Lippert to complain about this “Venture” design issue. Explained I needed to install now and would take steps to make it more secure and didn’t want the warranty to be  voided. Alls good says Lippert. 
    I have to separate the two units to mount to slide rail (114754) only to find out the measurement from shaft center to mounting holes on 90 degree gearbox don’t match original Tuson gearbox. Back Lippert I call and add this issue to my case number. Had to talk to several people there to explain they need to let “Venture Mfg.” know about this “Direct Bolt Up Design “ failure. Had to modify with a die grinder the mounting holes on the slide rail bracket. Easy peasy. Oops I need to grind some of the rail out too as the flange bolts now run into it. All documentation sent to Lippert just incase something fails down the road. After purchasing the New and Improved 117292, I found RV Upgrades has 19 of my model 133612 in stock. Go figure!!!! Could not get any Lippert person to explain the design change. Suggested Lippert discuss this to Venture Mfg.
    Failure of my part in my opinion was no lubrication.
    Lippert 117292 now is installed with mods to rail 114754.

    Easy peasy!!! If u don’t have the small black plastic glide locks, then just lift up and get bottom out of track, then pull top towards you and there out. Weight uh maybe 15 lbs.
