vent cover replacement

[theboyzmaid]

I have acquired a 1970 Sovereign Land Yacht. I need to replace two vent covers on the roof. I ordered one and i didnt open it til a few weeks after i received it. I found that it was broken, and very obviously a manufacturer defect. Because it was after 10 days,that voided the return policy. I would have understood if it was on my part, so now I need input on some good sources to locate parts for seals, axels, and im sure many parts down the road. Please help with any suggestions.

You might try Vintage Trailer Supply.. (Vintage Trailer Supply - parts and supplies for vintage travel trailers and campers! )

They have a lot of parts for older Airstreams and older trailers in general.. A lot of Airstream-specific parts might need to come from a dealer, but VTS can usually provide things from sources Airstream used in manufacturing... Other sources of parts for older trailers may be Inland RV in southern California ( Vintage Airstream RV Part Sales ), or the Vintage Airstream Club for added sources. (Home )

If you have the aluminum vent covers and "need to replace them" because the plastic window in the middle is cracked/broken you would be much better off repairing them with plexiglass or lexan.

Replacing with max-air or fantastic fan is a good, but somewhat expensive way to go.

The cheap plastic covers don't last as long as you would hope.

Following along here, I have an '82 Limited with this damage but little time to repair it. We haven't had rain yet and we had no catastrophies from washing it, but is this an inevitable catastrophe in the rainy season and if so, what's the fastest temporary fix?
