but there isn’t any stock to purchase.

and the agent sent him a link to the whole frame and suspension.

will there be a stock of DL frame sheets in the future?

Not sure. Obviously I would ask that question.

Well things have definitely changed over there. I had a small CS issue when they were in Colorado. A quick phone call fixed it and repairs were completed.
I had a feeling when they announced the Scheels launch that things would start going south. Then Synder leaves and that seemed like there was a lot behind the scenes.

@ELKOHUNTER is the frame plastic or metal underneath the material that’s torn? What frame do you have? I have a local Scheels next me, I’ll look at one. My dad has patched a lot of stuff in his days on boat tarps and jeep tops.

Edit: seen it’s a duplex lite. Kifaru has a an assembly video. Looks to be aluminum stays.

I’m 90% sure a good cobbler or someone that can sew can put new tabs on that. If you can’t find someone. PM me

The Duplex lite has "composite stays".

This is a pretty easy fix. The stays are sewn onto the frame via the webbing. The stay can be slid out of the webbing after some minor seam ripping, shaved down via a saw to clear a clean path for a fix it stitch, and placed back in. You would have to shave the stay down in order to clear room for a new stitch. Then you would fold the fabric in with new loops, throw a top stitch on, and bartack over it to re-enforce the loops.

Feel free to contact me if you want it fixed. I don't mind doing it as long as you take care of shipping.

The power of “I can!” Great for you!

THIS is what excellent CS looks like. I've been considering purchasing some TK gear. Guess what I'm going to do now?
