I don't mean to hijack this thread but does anyone make replacement arches for new age models as mine are rotten.

Nothing. Cynical Micky money grabber.
I am old school.
If a few classics get repaired properly and my buddy sells a few arches all good.

You know me so well.
FWIW, I got some Ebay ones about 18 months ago, and the bloke doing the work for me commented on how thick the steel was on the replacements.
