Hard to Find Parts....

heidisdad · 08-20-2018, 06:10 PM

I am looking for the metal brackets used for hooking the over cab bunk ladder to, in a 2017 Chateau 26B. I have searched the web pretty thouroghly, with no luck. The dealer may be a resource, but I'm of the opionon that I should be able to find this as a universal item used in many applications. Any help will be appreciated. Pic attached:

You might try calling Thor Customer Support to see if they can direct you to the part. Have your VIN when you call.

Thanks gbrown, I called Customer Service as you suggested, and they were able to point me toward a source for the brackett.....my local Thor Dealer !!! Even gave me the part number. I guess it's a good fall back option if I can't find it anywhere else. I did learn though how to get any Thor part I might need in the future....so thank you !!!

I bought a piece of steel at Lowe’s, put it in a vise, added some heat at the bend point and made one. A little black paint and a couple of drilled holes and I was done. I never did find one online.

Or just hook the ladder over the mattress retaining board.

In my Class C, there is no mattress retaining board. By design, the mattress, when in use, partially covers access to the cab. When the mattress is removed, you have unobstructed access to the cab.
