Where to get these step bolts?

Hi guys,

I was wondering where I could get the bolts (and nuts I guess) to repair my front steps on my 1986 Soveriegn? (See the pics to see the bolt I mean). As you can see in the pictures, one end of the bolt has sheared right off.

I live in British Columbia, Canada and we don't have the same hardware store you guys have in the States. Will I have to get them from Airstream directly? Does anybody know what these cost?

Thanks,

Rod

Rod.

A few dealers have those special bolts.

You will never find them at a hardware store.

They are not cheap, but they are not expensive, either.

Rebuild Steps

Rod,
This past winter I rebuilt the front and back door steps on our '87 and I found all the bolts, washers, screws, anti-skid stickers, etc... at Out of Doors Mart (may of the pieces come together as "kits"). Take a look at this link which had hot links to all the parts you will need to rebuild your steps...

Airstream Double Step

You can also read about my trials and tribulations rebuilding my steps here...
