We are going to be in the Bristol/Elkhart area next week. I'm hoping to find a salvage yard that would have front stainless steel inserts (simulators) in very good condition for an '04 F53 19.5's. I also have to replace our Dometic Brisk Air shroud, plus I'm seriously thinking of 6 new XRV Michelins.
My question is, do any of you folks that have been to this area in the past know the better places to look for these items? It sure would save a lot of running around, in a completely new area to us, with fairly limited time, if we could hear from anyone that has shopped the above or similar items in that area.
Any information (of good or bad experiences) or help would be very much appreciated and I thank you in advance.
Ron

If it were me I would ''Google'' RV SALVAGE YARDS IN THE Bristol/Elkhart area and you will probably get a ''list'' of places and then you could call to check on the parts you need. This would save a lot of running around and fruitless searches...

This valuable information will cost you ten cents and you must pay me the next time you see me ...... of course, if it dont work for you .... I NEVER KNEW YOU.

Thank a vet for your freedoms. they earned them for all of us ...... think about it....
