Anyone know the manufacturer of the ladder for the 2014 Dutch Star?

Newmar usually has an agreement with their parts suppliers prohibiting direct sales. I ran into that when I needed a new slide motor for our '02 DSDP. Ended up ordering one from a Newmar dealer on Amazon, came in a Newmar box direct from Newmar but cost far less than Newmar wanted.

When I bought my coach the rear ladder needed to be replaced. We were new owners and wanted to stay OEM when possible, so we had the guy doing all the work order one from Newmar. A short time and $600 later we had a fine and new ladder.
Two years later an errant tree in a CG in WA shape-shifted this ladder. By now I had learned a thing or two, and quickly shopped online and found a generic universal of very similar dimension for under $200.

Shop a bit. You may find a suitable generic.

Thanks for the thoughts. I really would like to replace only the lower half of the ladder.
