Entry door
« on: April 01, 2021, 07:08:18 PM »
Does anybody know where to get parts for the entry door I had one of the clips on the internal part of the door mechanism break.It happened while we were on a trip last summer and locked us in the RV. I was able to open the passenger window reach out and unlock the door. We went to a hardware store in big sky Montana.They didn’t have the exact clip but I found something that worked temporarily. Still trying to get the right clip thanks Kevin

Those clips are regular clips used in the1960s and 1970s vintage cars and trucks any good automotive supply store should be able to furnish you with one failing that the door on your coach was built by a company called PTL there is an article in the coach assist section of the forum on PTL door adjustment

Thanks Bill and Eric sometimes it just helps to know what you’re looking for (rod clips) now I know. The Napa assortment worked
