Rear Ladder mounting plates

[Dean A Van Peursem]

I'm looking for two replacement round mounting plates that the rear exterior ladder attaches to the 5th wheel. These hold the two bottom horizontal spacers of the ladder to the RV. I accidently bumped the ladder and popped the screws through the current plates and am looking for replacements. Was at Camping World today but they don't carry them. I may be able to repair the old ones but would prefer to get new replacements. Fairly soft metal. Not sure if they are made from aluminum or something a bit harder. Chrome plated. 3 screw holes I beleive to attach them to the back of the late 2006 Montana 3400RL.

Anyone know where I can get these?

can you get by with using some stainless steel or aluminum washers to repair it instead of changeout?

I think I can make that work but would like to replace them if I can find them.

How about trying a larger S/S pan head screw ???

Jerry,

The inserts in the horizontal standoffs have a threaded section which dictates the size of the screw going through the back side (RV Side) of the round plate. This is what holds the horizontal standoff and ladder to the round plate. I'm not referring to the 3 screws that hold the round plate to the RV. They are fine. I may not have made myself clear about which screw I was referring to.
