IMHO that pivot door is one of the dumbest ideas in the history of RV’s. I tore mine completely out and replaced it with a slider one week after I bought our Cougar. That was 3 years ago and we’ve been happy with it ever since!

Roller update

Pryor to the modification I made to the pivot door roller I had reached out to MorRyde for information.
I have since gotten a reply that there is an updated roller assembly. They sent me one at no cost and it does appear to be an improvement that I think may hold up over time. Their rep, Jennifer, was very prompt, knowledgeable and courteous.
New roller arrived today.

Part nos.:
SP205-517 (roller space plate)
UO136-2074 (sliding door roller)

The roller now fits into a pocket in the mounting plate, locks in and pivots quite easily. Theirs freely pivots in the bracket where as mine pivots freely in the roller. I think both achieve the same thing.

I will keep this as a spare and if my mod does not hold up I will change them out.

Jim, glad you got something to help hopefully. I figured they would have an "upgraded" something in the wings like they did for my Cougar. Oddly, that design with the little locking hasp looks VERY familiar to the design they sent me when replacing the rollers on my sliding door.
