Thor parts

So, our rig is in the shop from tearing out the passenger side basement pulled wall away from the door and crushed the tailpipe.
Talking to the service writer it would only take a week to fix it once the basement compartments and storage doors come in. That was the tricky part of it he said, it might be six months before they see the parts from Thor. Has anyone had this issue from repairs that needed Thor parts?

On July 4, 2017 my plant 750 coach was side swiped dragging the left sise of the coach and dragging the tail pipe under the rear wheels bending the drive shaft. Iron Horse RV of Sam Antonio replaced the basement doors reattached the left side of the cap, repainted the coach, replaced the tail pipe and drive shaft all in 10 days. Thor MC supplied the new basement doors, hinges and latches as well as the vinyl cover strip for the rear cap's attachment screws.

Your doors are cut from the lower skirt with a CAD/CNC router and then lined with aluminum. If not in stock, the the weekend clean-up crew will laminate a skirt and cut you new doors assuming plant 750 still has a weekend clean up crew. The rotocast ABS basement cubbies are made by an outside supplier so if you need them, it might be a while in today's environment

Measure it and post the dimensions.
I have a spare rotobin that might fit.

An alternative:
I have the extra bin because I took it out and replaced it with a much bigger custom steel bin that bolts to my frame.
It has held about 800lbs of tools and floor jacks and heavy stuff.

It's a very worthwhile upgrade.
