Hi, I'm in need of a part or a repair. In southern baja south of Loreto. Headed south. Cuidad Insurgentes has always been good to me for repairs - anyone have thoughts or ideas on a certain place? Or rv repair center down by Cabo ok too....

O-rings come in a selection of standard sizes, doubt it's exclusive to your RV. Check big hardware stores or auto supply places.

My go-to in La Paz (they always manage to pull weird parts out of the back in spite of my skepticism) would be Plomybaños, but that would entail driving in the centro. Easy enough to park on the outskirts and take an Uber, though.


Thanks much...good to know about Plomybaños, I will check them out if don't find anything in Loreto!

Or order a box of assorted O rings on line. I have several in my shop.

There are numerous ferreterias in Loreto that may have what you're looking for. Try Romero's on Benito Juarez, or FerreMar, or Chuco's. Baja Powerheads may also have something as they work on a lot of marine and m/c stuff. All are searchable for location on the google. An online search for ferreterias will set you in the right direction. I'm in Loreto right now if you need to contact me for more info.
