Hello everyone....

I locked myself inside my 99 Thor Hurricane when the door lock broke. Pulling the handles (inside and outside) would not release the spring loaded tongue portion of the lock. The pot-metal tongue broke and I had to disassemble the entire lock and remove the tongue. The dead bolt portion still works but it has to be set every time the door is closed.

Does anyone know of a RV boneyard that sells parts for these older models. The lockset appears to be the Trimark 60-650. I know there is a Trimark replacement/upgrade (60-1650) but am not sure if it is a direct-fit replacement. I may try to have the broken tongue fabricated or repaired as the price of the newer 1650 model in Canada is over $300.

Any suggestions would be most welcome.

Thanks for your help.
