Swim platform help?

[wakejmpr]

Out riding/partying and lost one of the pins that holds my platform Down. Was unaware of this and stepped on it only to completely destroy the other L bracket on the underside. Good news is that the fiberglass platform is ok just need to replace the L bracket under it. Dealer is zero help. Any one have any idea where or if possible those L brackets can be purchased?

I'd call Supra parts directly.... They'll get you taken care of. Sucks that your dealer isn't willing to help!

the old supras are bad about bouncing the platform at idle, so i put safety wire on mine to keep them from backing out, and had to rebuild it too. Been down that road. Lol

I found a stainless bolt and nut combination and uses those instead of the pins. Far more reassuring!

07 launch. sorry salty just saw the post. those look exactly like what i need. ordered the parts 50 bucks each so not that bad. i do have ss screws actually drilled through the platform and ss bolts holding it down instead of the pins but my problem is the hole in the L bracket actually pulled through the bolt. Garbage i say. hopefully the parts will be here before the weekend.

With regards to Jets comments re swim platform bouncing at idle I got some foam seal tape that is used to create a seal between a canopy top and the box of a pick up truck. This tape has adhesive both sides. I removed my platform and cut lengths to fit the back of the mounting brackets. I then inserted my platform and its L shaped bracket into the mounting bracket and forced the platform upwards so I could insert my ss bolts throught the holes the pins used to fit into.
Then put ss nuts on and bolted tight. Platform is tight , doesn' t move around or bounce and rattle at idle.
An easy fix!
