Hi. Hit a pot hole while coming down I-5 grapevine between LA & Bakersfield. was towed into town and then to a repair facility. No one seems able to locate a new control A arm for my drivers side front wheel. It has been 3 weeks a no leads. Does anyone know how or who to contact re my broken control Arm? Getting desperate.

Our front end on Dynomax chassis is by Arvin Meritor (Chickasha OK).
Or locate front end shop that specializes in front ends for big trucks.
We broke a stabilizer bar bracket right front and had two fabricated at Tampa Spring & Axle. We looked in our books for the motorhome and it shows what chassis and front end we have. Good luck!

I found Ridewell on the internet. Did you try them? We have an FMCA service book with RV service centers listed. If we can help, let us know.

You need to say where you are located. For example, in Colton Ca Colten Truck Terminal has repaired a lot of broken frame parts and I watched them rebuild a tag axle frame assembly.

Donald,

We have had a front wheel bearing repaired and a broken frame strut welded at Kieth n Jerry's and would highly recommend them if you can get the parts. We now do all chassis maintenance there as well. We have the same IFS so will watch for your solution in case we have the same issues!! Marc 05 Affinity # 6429
