Swim platform telescoping ladder for 2007 232

Any body know where I can source a replacement? The ladder Our new to us 2007 232 is missing one of the rubber thread wraps and takes a Ton of effort to deploy. We’ve tried various lubricants, but it still takes some muscle. Looks like an easy deal with a single bolt of I can find a new ladder unit. Thanks ahead of time!

I rebuilt mine this past winter. Put in new Teflon washer, stainless washers and straighten everything out. I noticed that when extended the metal appeared to be tarnished. (Lots of brown color) I ended polishing the entire ladder and mount with my bench polisher which removed all the brown tarnishing and works a lot better. As for the missing rubber tread, I replaced all of mine with bicycle handle bar grips.

Thanks CBO. I’ll try that when she comes out of storage. Great tip on the bike handgrips! Gonna repost in the general chat with a pic to get other ideas as well.
