Converto parts wanted

Post by major519 » Tue Jun 22, 2021 3:27 pm

I recently acquired an early Converto Airborne trailer. It is a nice clean unmolested survivor but I am missing a couple items.
-T handle assembly for jack leg
-Sliding door for tailgate
Wondering if anyone has original items to spare or can point me in the right direction with dimensions or drawings to fabricate replacements

Thanks Chris

I too am in need of some parts to include the "pins" that hold the tub in place from tipping. I also need the overall length of the landing leg as mine is missing and need to reproduce another if none are available. If someone has a trailer they are parting, I will need the triangular piece on each side at the bottom rear with the hole in it.
Thanks

Hi there - sorry about delay. I had the same problem with finding the triangular piece that controls the gate so I had them made. would you like me to look up who made them? I am also physically remote from my trailer this month but can try to find the landing leg measurement when I get there in July.

cheers
Marc
