Title: Which replacement rain gutter spout extension?
Post by: zolman on April 15, 2018, 06:56:41 am

I have just bought a used 2005 Phoenix Cruiser 2350. The rain gutter extension spouts are broken. Can anyone tell me what type of replacement and where I can get them.

Call the factory and ask for Carol.  Most likely they can send you replacement parts.

Hi zolman,

Call the factory.  They will supply the right ones and at a very affordable price.  I advise to put a list together of everything you need and give it to them for a quote.  They are still very familiar with a 13 year old PC, often having the right parts, and their prices are usually better than everywhere else.

Oh! jatrax just beat me to the punch line.

That's the problem. I've already tried the factory.

I've given Carol complete list of the parts I needed, twice. That was a month ago and last week. I've personally talked with her, gave her my vin #. For whatever reason she never got back with me either time. However, in my first conversation she did tell me that she could't get replacement rain gutter extension anymore. And she did not offer alternatives for the gutter spout extension. Frankly I love my Phoenix Cruiser but I'm unimpressed with their customer support. For whatever reason they don't seem to want my business.

I've already located the other replacement parts I needed through other sources, except for the gutter spout extensions. So anyone who is knowledgeable about gutter spouts would be sincerely appreciated.

The Camco extended spouts (not the spout extensions)  are designed for wider drip rails but can be modified to work with a little time and ingenuity.

If Carol said the originals are N/A it would be tough for her to try to cross-reference aftermarket parts that may not  fit.

If you can’t find them you could try to make one out of a short piece of  1/2” pvc pipe. Cut the length you desire ( 1”?) then cut it in half length wise and epoxy it in place using a quick setting epoxy that sets in a couple of minutes while you hold it or temporarily duct tape it in place.
