| Okay, so I took my Merhow with the bad walls in to the trailer shop and they determined the only way to fix it is to replace the side walls on the trailer. The problem is, they can't find anyone that sells a big enough piece to do the job. He suggested I start looking around. I contacted Crane Composites (which seems to manufacture the right stuff) but I can't find a distributor that carries the stuff. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks! |

| Does Merhow (the company) have information where they bought the stuff? The other idea about contacting RV companies might be useful.. see which ones have the FRP walls on their products.. esp if they are still making them!!! Jbsny |

| Thanks! I am in Lexington, KY so South. KY wouldn't be very far if they have the materials. My repair shop called Merhow; they gave him the name of a company neither one of us can find. |

Location: Home of Wild Turkey Whiskey | I have talked with these folks about conversions in the past, they are super folks. Give them a try. They can make a FRP wall 100" if needed. http://www.lakeviewyachts.com/contact-us

| Thank you for the suggestions! Hopefully I can get an idea of if it can be fixed, and if the cost is reasonable to do so.
