I just bought some of just the "male" portion of the "Southco "J" latch....the piece that usually breaks....from nwrvsupply.com in Eugene....think I paid $2.00 a piece. They stock the large size and a small size, DRV uses the small size (naturally), however the large size is stouter, and will work, you just need new mounting holes. Northwest RV Surplus and Supply 541 746 9092. If you are traveling through, they are easy to find, on the east frontage road of I-5 in Eugene...being a surplus outlet, there is no telling what you'll find.

In case they won't ship, and if anyone wants a handful, I can pick 'em up next time I'm in town and ship 'em to you for cost plus postage.

Regards
