New owner in OK - missing bed flaps

Bobcat54s · 12-10-2023, 06:05 PM

Good evening everyone. Just got a Trailmanor 2619. In pretty good shape, but it needs a few things. It is missing the fabric seals around the back bedroom that you Velcro over the seam between the top and bottom. Also, one of the arms that supports the top has been hit by something, and is bent. Is there a good spot to look for parts? Anyone have anything laying around they would get rid of? Thanks for the help in advance.

Sorry, I'm not sure about the lingo for the trailers yet. The seals I'm referring to are the canvas flaps that cover the opening between the ends of the bed and the sidewall of the camper

Bobcat54, welcome to the forum. There's not much of a gap between the rear bedrail to shell, so they just have fabric, no velcro. The front shell to bottom box is a big gap, so that needs velcro to hold those flaps down.
Can you post a picture of the support, so we know for sure which arm and how bad it is.

Here is the area the flap is missing. Bathroom is on the right

Thanks for the picture. On my pic, you can see the same material from the bed mattress cover, is used to cover any gap from the bedrail to shell wall. You could use a similar colored material to cover the gap.

In my 2003 2720SD, there are rubber flap seals and fabric overlap seals that are supposed to stop air infiltration at head and foot ends of the set-up mattress. After all these years, the air seals have aged, broken, curled, etc and no longer do their job. Long story short, I cut a long 3-inch diameter foam swimming pool noodle in half lengthwise, and wedged each half into the space between the bedframe and the rear shell sidewall. The foam sits over the fabric and under the rubber on one side, works a little differently on the other side. May need some cutting (serrated steak knife works well) to customize the fit and insure a good seal. Other leak points are the front-facing rectangular gaps at the 2 corners of the front-facing bedframe board. Cut 2 small custom foam pieces about 7 inches by 2 inches to wedge up against those air entry points. Make sure the pool noodle has a simple circle profile with a donut cross-section. They store easy in the back of wardrobe when not needed. An easy peasy solution to a long-standing problem on my TM to-do list!
