Fleetwood gearbox broken ramp door

I have a new to my family 2005 gearbox 335fs and while I was going through systems and packing things up after a productive day had the driver side ramp door hinge sheared off between the door and the frame of trailer. I have found very limited info on this particular set up it seems like most toy haulers use a different hinge set up. Need to get this fixed so my family can enjoy this vacation home on wheels. The only thread on this shows closed. Does anyone have anything to help? Pics, write ups? Please help thanks.

    I found a thread from 2011 that might give you a bit of help, might PM the posters to see if they reply and can assist you.

    Yes pin sheared off into the door portion. Yes it appears there are only hinges on out sides. Here is only external access appears to have possibly been Allen head at one point but no longer. Very frustrated as this really defeats purpose of my family buying the toy hauler. Thanks for any help.

    Is it the pin that sheared? Are there only hinges at either side?

    Hey Buford, don't you have a Gearbox?

    Try searching hinge pin at etrailer.com. I can't tell from the pics but they may work for the repair.

    I don't have quick access to trailer at the moment. It is sheared between the ramp frame and the trailer door opening. Apparently fleetwood used a different type of hinge from a lot and it is somewhat hidden. Not the external hinges with springs mounted to hinge rod. I will post pics as soon as possible. Thanks for response
