| Can you purchase the lower leaf from the inside of the entry door on the fs65s? We have a problem with them rusting out. |

| I used to get a local sheet metal shop to fab replacement pieces when they rotted out. It was cheaper than buying from the dealer at the time. |

| i have some customers with a real nice template set up to spray rubberized undercoating around the areas that rust on them. the leafs last forever when protected. aftermarket, its build your own or buy the leaf. |

Well, my problem was that Ponder Equipment in Illinois was telling us that I could not buy the replacement leaf. I called another Thomas dealer in Michigan, and they said, yes it is available and supplied me with the elusive part number.
I appreciate everyone's responses!!!!!! |
