I broke the ZipDee end cap last week and need to find another one.
It is the rear cap. Rob M. was looking for one better than a year ago and I was wondering if he found one. Not picky about the exterior condition of the cap.

You can probably buy new from ZipDee quicker than looking for a used one.

I never found one with the Zip Dee cast into it so I wound up buying one from JimK got me one, HOWEVER, they are not the same, Zip
Dee is NOT cast into the end it has a decal in the middle that has Zip Dee in it.

Regards,
Rob M.

I saw one on a coach two years ago.  It looked streamlined; turned out the guy told me it was the bottom end of a plastic 2 liter soda bottle.  That would be a low cost more streamlined alternative or at temporary solution.  .

Be sure and ask for Linda, she is very different.
We are a Zip Dee Distributor and stock some of the parts.
There product is considerably better than their customer service.
They put our acct on COD when we went 1 day over 30.
In my book it is about as low as you canget when we purchase over $50,000 / year.
I appealed to the owner and it was not worth my time.
We sell lot of A&E and Carefree awnings to the SOB coaches, but refuse to sell them for the GMC.

Does what work?

Guys - if you use the Forum and send messages like this email users (like me) don't have clue what you're talking about UNLESS you
cut and patch a bit of the original message.

Regards,
Rob M.
