Dometic 9100 upper arm bent

Hey guys upper arm on right side bent where strut attaches. Dealer wants $440 for complete arm and $250 to replace it. Is there a way to get just the upper arm and replace 3 pins.?

I had a similar problem and was told that Dometic wont sell individual parts, so I made one from aluminum channel I bought at Home Depot.

I had both arm bend . Went to local steel supplier and had two pieces of 1/8 " aluminum made into same size chanel as bent arms . Cost about $60 for the two . Drilled the holes painted and now have to arms that won't bend the next time wind coms up .

Ok, wondered if I'd have to go that way.
