Default Who makes the beauty rings for the wheels on the Supernova?

I need parts and don't have a clue where to start. I need the nuts that hold the 2 piece rings to the wheels. Any help would be appreciated.

Ron in SoCal.

I had to get a replacement part for my 6400 front trim ring and the company that made mine was Dicor. They can be located on the web at:

Default Freakin" BINGO!

Pchicky,
YOU ARE THE MAN!
That is exactly what I was looking for. You have no clue how long I've been searching for this. Every Home Depot, Ace Hardware, & Loew's within a 30 mile radius, and countless websites have been searched for these damn locking nuts.
I am ordering extra just in case.

Thanks for sharing.

Don't mention it....you won't believe how long I had to search to find those darn things when I scraped a front trim ring swinging into a weigh scale at the local truck stop (stupid me)....and you're correct, you can't get those darn things from anywhere except the manufacturer.

pchicky,
Do you remember what application you used for your Supernova? I own a 2008 Supernova 6400N on the International chassis.

I just need the 2 piece jam nuts. I need 4 pieces.

I started to get a headache reading the application list on line.

Thanks again,
Ron

I needed the trim ring and not the nuts, so I just looked through the applications until I found the 2-hole trim ring. You mentioned you are looking for the locking nuts....just to clarify, are you looking for the locking nut that goes on the spindle, and that spindle attaches to the wheel stud?

I lost one on a trip this past summer and found a replacement at an RV shop in Tennessee on the way back. If that's what you're looking for, I'd check with and RV dealer or Camping World and you might get lucky.

I my part in to Camping World here in Southern CA and they did a search and nothing came up.

I went to my RV mechanic and he had no clue??? He said he would research but pchicky had the answer before he did.

I just placed the order...Highway Freakin' Robbery!

Oh well, it's that or roll around without the wheel simulators on my front wheels.

$165.00 later...Damn RV, money pit!

I enjoy my money pit and so do the kids.

Thanks for the help!

Yup, that's about what I had to pay for mine......and I think I said "what a freakin' ripoff!!"

Glad you found it though.....if you're like me, it would drive you crazy to see the naked front hub without the wheel simulator.
