Ladder parts?

Any leads on rear ladder parts? I'm in need of the cast bases on my '02 U 320

A quick Google search turned up zero leads, making me think this will be a tough part to find.

You might try giving Xtreme a call.  They sometimes remove the ladders when they do full body paint jobs.  Slight chance they might have some parts laying around.

Or, try calling Colaw.  They part out a bunch of RVs.  I don't know if they would mess with selling small ladder parts, and if they do have them they will be pricey.

Do a search for boat railing. depending on your diameter there are some parts that would be easy to modify.

I replaced some ladder parts on my coach a few years ago and found a place online that carried our ladders and parts but can't remember the name. I think I did a google search for "rv ladder parts"

You all are fantastic. I called Xtreme and they have some.  I had jack knifed my trailer and damaged the lower ladder. Unfortunately some bases got tossed. I found a company in California that custom bends ladders and am having new tubes bent. $150 for the tubes and I am reusing the treads. I will reinforce the treads like in the link. Thank you

FYI, I bought the lower section of the ladder from FT last year for under $100 shipped.  I believe it came with those mounts too.

As of this past Fall, FOT was no longer able to get parts from the manufacturer.  I had to scrounge some parts (one of the lower tubes) from Xtreme to fix my ladder.

I spoke to foretravel parts department today and they confirmed that ladders are no longer available.
I bent the bottom ladder and was looking for just that. Might have to call that company in Los Angeles and see if they can make me just the tubing.

Did you try Xtreme in Nacogdoches?

Did you have any luck finding the ladder parts you were looking for?

Last year while at Xtreme, Greg and Rance told me that they do not have any more ladder parts.  Best bet will be the RV wrecking yards.

No. Unfortunately my ladder is not that old but I bent it up I'm going to just try to unbend it and use some type of a support around the bends to strengthen it.
