Bushing for screen door handle

[Railroader]

I have a 2001 mountain aire and the bushing is worn out were the rod goes threw the screen door. Were do I buy a replacement? It is broke in half. It is a square bushing.

Is this the hinge your talking about? A thin plastic wire tie would fit in the space and wear allot longed than a plastic washer, the tie lock can be behind the hinge and not notice.
Plus you need not take apart.

No, it is on the screen door handle. Were the shaft goes threw the screen door to latch it. The bushing that the shaft rides on.

Most likely- a Philips Brand door. Do a Google search for "RV+Philips"

I have tried for three days to get hold of Newmar parts. Anyone else ever have that problem.

Try a really good older hardware store. They usually have bins with all sorts of misc. hardware items. If you have a TSC store try them. They have a small parts section. Thinking about it, I think Lowes has one too. My were shot and I replaced them with some bushings I had left over from a Hurst shifter out of my old Plymouth Road Runner.
