Title: Shoreline model 5036 dimensions needed
Post by: Mark... on December 06, 2016, 11:17:18 am
After 12 years our Shoreline 5036 electric reel died.  I want to order a replacement but I need to know the dimensions (HxWxL).  Normally this would be a simple task but the coach is in storage over 50 miles from home.  Since this product is no longer made I cannot seem to find any measurements for it on the web.

So, could some kind forum member whose coach is handy and has one of these reels grab the measurements?

I've included a pic of the reel for reference. 

Thanks in advance.

You can rebuild the one you have cheaply if John has the parts.

T-man - I googled John and that is good info and I'm sure someone here can use it. 

However, currently I just don't have the means or opportunity to go that route.  So if someone has some measurements it would be greatly appreciated.

I think I have the 5036 and if it stops raining here I will go out and do some measuring for you.

All you have to do is call TRC@1-800-780- 4324.

Thanks T-man.

Bill - I did call TRC and spoke to the tech department.  The guy said they don't have the specs for that old model but thought he remembered that they sized the current RH54331RMK closely to the old one.  That did not give me the most reassured feeling  ??? so I'm looking for a little confirmation.

It is hard to believe that a company that builds a product does not keep there records or drawings of what they made.

Mark, I have the same unit as you. This is what I measured, 15 1/4H, from floor to top of reel. 11 1/2 W and 13 1/2 for the drum or 13 3/4 L from the outer edges of the bent arms. Hope this helps.

Richard - Thank you!  ^.^d  That is exactly what I need.  Now looking at pictures of the reel in my bay I will be able to figure out which of the couple of reel options available will fit.

Thanks Richard.  Interesting to see the subtle installation differences between models/years:
