Default TrailManor Parts

We have read a lot on the Forum about spare parts. We have the parts list that is on the Forum. The issue now is finding the parts (we have a 2005 2720SD). We contacted the only Florida vendor shown on the Parts Listing. They have little, and will likely not carry TM anymore. Reason: they cannot get TM to contact them back, and cannot get parts. So, our question is, where are TM specific parts available? Who are you using? Is the TM company responsive to you? We can easily find parts that are not TM specific, but those items that only fit a TM??
Any input will be useful in the future.

Go to the TrailManor web site (trailmanor.com) and under Contact Us, click either Talk to Us - Parts and Service (phone) or Contact Us - Parts and Service (email). That department is run by a lady named Sonja, who has always been very helpful and responsive to me.

Yep I’ve only had luck direct from the factory via Sonja. However, you’ll be surprised how few parts are actually TM specific.

Thank you, Bill and Shane826 for the help. We will contact Sonja. Shane, we are learning that we can find most parts elsewhere, so we will continue looking before we buy only from TM. Glad to have someone reinforce what we were beginning to suspect!

If needed by anyone, the Florida TM supplier has a few white lower camper latches, 2 black lower latch hooks (Left side) and one white fender skirt. We bought about half of his lower latches - they were better quality than the ones we found elsewhere.

Good to know about the white fender skirts. Those were pretty hard to come by for a while. I ran with zero fender skirts for over a year then had to go with black.

Default skid marks

You need to keep fender covers on at all times. I know. Had a blowout without the cover on. Now have skid marks in the bathroom on the wall. Oh well, bathroom needed repainting anyway.

I too had a blow out and got grated tire rubber on my bathroom wall and curtain. Washed the curtain and cleaned the wall with soap and water, then finished up with a Mr Clean sponge. Came out nice and clean.
