98 Tropi-cal brakes

I have a 98 Tropi-Cal 36’ with 7400 Vortec. On the way home, thankfully very close to home, my passenger caliper locked up. Didn’t catch fire but not driving for obvious reasons. I do not know how to find the correct brakes parts can anyone help me? Just need source. I’m very mechanical and will do my own work, since I’m not independently wealthy. We’ve had it about a year and full times last winter. We love it!!! Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

You have a Chevrolet Chassis P-30 series should be easy to find brake parks for it. What year is the chassis? Normally the chassis is at least one year older then the motorhome. Don't ask for a Tropical brake parts they will never find them.
As an example here is the listing for a 1997 P-30 from Rockauto.

Thank you so much on both comments. I have the RV manual but it tells very little of the chassis. Thanks again I’ll book mark these.
