I have a Tahoe Transport lite 18tb and I purchased it without the canvas around the front pop out. Would anyone know where I could find it. I have the two poles that support the door and I have the center top pole. I need the triangle front frame and the canvas. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would start by checking out RV dealerships and see if they can get you one. I know some upholstery shops also do that kind of work so that's another possibility.

I have been to 2 upholstery shops in town once said no way the other said of he has to make it from scratch it would be 2k. I only paid 2500 for the unit. I have been to the largest dealership and repair in town and asked about hybrid canvas and she looked at me like I was talking Russian. That last link is only good for pop ups. At this point imm wondering if i could find someone that has a tb18 and see if the could give me the measurements of the canvas. I've seen some on ebay but they where for other manufacturers. Thanks for the responses guys but no luck so far.

Is this mfr still around? The brand may be dead but the mfr may be alive, like Thor. Your Tahoe may be a sister to another brand, which gives you more search options. Call the mfr.

I have called them. The sister company is not in business anymore. However I have found something very similar on Ebay. The measurements are very close. Now all I need is the fold down front bar support. The part that looks like a large triangle. Any info on where I might be able to find that. I have called all the RV salvage yards no one keeps the canvas witch blows my mind. Anyway that's the last peice of the puzzle.

Once you get your canvas, you could install it, then buy your own 3/4 inch electrical conduit and custom bend it to shape to fit. Keep the two ends long and gradually saw them down until the fit it good. May not be a best, tight fit but would be functional. You would need some flat bar and bend to a U-shape to make the pivot and the ends of your bent conduit.
