2002 Keystone Sprinter 5vr :(Last owner said canopy got caught in wind it broke the metal piece at right top corner of arm, do I need to replace whole arm or can this part be purchased separate? I'll need to take a picture.

If you know the maker of your awning try Google for parts. THIS IS JUST ONE (http://www.pplmotorhomes.com/parts/rv-awnings/rv-awning-parts.htm) of the on-line dealers available. Hope this helps, Hank

First of all, you'd need to know what brand awning it is (It should be on a sticker on the roller tube) then go online, use Google, type in the awning brand and model number and the word "parts" you should get several leads at different RV supply houses.

Usually (not always) parts that are bolted or screwed together or parts that slide into each other are available. However, parts that are molded together, pressed on at the factory, held in place with welds, permanent type fasteners or that are glued together/sewn together or matched as a machined surface part are available only in the assembly.

If the part you need is a "stand alone part" it should be available, but different brands and some different models within the brand are not interchangable, so get the model number and manufacturer to start your search.

If you can't find anything, post a picture of what's damaged and the manufacturer/model number and someone on the forum will give you a hand.

You can also use the "RV SUPPLIERS AND RV PARTS" sticky found as the first thread in the "Repairs and Maintenance" section of the forum.
