I have a damaged a piece of J Wrap (Panel) on my Landmark.
I cant seem to find a supplier for the panel anywhere on the internet and wonder if anyone knows where I can buy it.
Also is there a post on the forum where someone has done a repair like this themselves?

Thanks

When I had a tire blow a unit ago I went to a metal supply store and bought a piece of scrap that was powder coated the same white.

I found that a two liter soda liter soda bottle filled with water gave me the guide I needed to match the factory roll.

I'll have to give this a try... I tried everything to get mine right after our blowout.

Your only four or five hours from Elkhart, IN. Looks like a little camping trip could be in your future.
Changing the j-wrap is easy if you can handle a tin snip, a screw driver/drill driver and a caulk gun.

Now that is an interesting idea. I have the tools and skill set. After all I did stay at Holiday Inn Express...... I could probably buy a piece of panel from Heartland parts, pick it up myself and change it out at Elkhart campground. Hmmmm........
Thanks

I ordered a piece of panel from Heartland parts. Super friendly and easy process. I pick it up today. If your considering it and interested in some details, there were three different types used on my rig. Here’s the info and pricing Heartland gave me to choose from.

0153517 - Metal - Skirt .030 x 19 1/2 x 144 - 2" Rad D-55 Polar White - $74.79

0172014 - Metal - Skirt - .030 x 28 x 120 - 3" Radius - D-62 - Polar White - $89.55

I helped a friend replace some j-wrap before. As Cookie mentioned, pretty simple process. Good news for you too is that you won't require any paint. Hope you have the length in your truck/RV for these pieces (10' to 12'). :)

Picked up the panel at Heartland today. While at Shipshewana Campground South, I took the old panel off, used it as a template and cut the new piece, installed and calked. About a 3 hour job, set up to clean up.
Pic below of finished project. I pleased....

I had to replace a piece of mine. I went to rv deañer and had them order a piece. The main cost is shipping, and also waiting. Took forever to get here.
