tire Blowout Repair

I have a 2008 Keystone Sprinter Cooper Canyon 5th wheel. On a recent trip I had a tire blowout and it damaged my wheel skirt and the lower aluminum siding on the trailer. Does anyone know where I can get an exact wheel skirt replacement. I see off brands advertised on line, but I want an exact Keystone replacement skirt. Also any idea where I can get an aluminum replacement panel for the lower part of the trailer? It is a tan/brown color.

    Thanks for all of the advice. Trekwood RV Parts has everything imaginable you could need for a Keystone RV.. They had the fender skirt and J panel for a total of about $160.00 plus shipping. Still going to contact nearest Keystone dealer and see if they can get the parts for me. I don't trust UPS to ship these items, they might bend them.


    Can't speak to Teakwood but mine was boxed in wood and wrapped in a foam wrap inside. Shipping was close to the parts price but still way less than dealer quote. UPS WA to NM shorted distance should be less $$.
  • Odds are that’s how those parts get to the dealers some times also. Good luck with your repair job.

  • Look here for the fender I think they make most of them.

    The lower panel is called J panel

    I did my own repair after being quote $1500. I was able to contact a dealer that sold the model I had. They ordered the panel in the correct color and shipped it to my house. About $300 in parts couple hours time as it was the first time I did the repair. You have to cut the radius, flatten the old and use it as a template.
  • My insurance covered my blowout damage, the tire was 2 years old, 08 Sundance all repaired at $3,200
  • Keystone? Although I doubt they have Many specialty parts the wheelwells may be exactly the same as current trailers. There are also salvage yards for RVs that you may have better luck with.
