I am really struggling to find a replacement for this front corner piece. Any suggestions? I will try to do a few more threads with additional pictures in order to elaborate. HELP!

Hmmm... I don't know what that is. My drip rail extends all the way to the bottom. You can probably do that, too... just get more drip rail and take it all the way down.

I tend to agree with Jessie. It's normal drip rail/edge trim. Just add a piece.

No...it's not drip railing. I don't know if you were able to look at the flikr link but those pictures are bigger. This is a 1956 trailer and the later models do indeed have drip railing that goes all the way down the seams but not this one. I am hoping someone with a similar model will see this and point me in the right direction!

Hi, I had some kind of odd corner flashing on my 1956 1500, that was definitely NOT original, and was responsible for much leakage into my trailer. This was added on in a repair done by a po who clearly didn't have access to the kind of knowledge base offered through this forum. I am replacing with the drip rail along with overlapping the edges as is shown throughout this forum. If you look at my photostream (see links below) you will see the offending culprit.

I'm just using the standard 13/16" drip rail/j rail that you can find at interstate metals and many trailer supply house.
