Hi:
I also have a '77 with a broken door latch. My problem occurred because of a sticking (swelling) door. If the door was on the sun side, it would swell and require a hefty "yank" to open. This has resulted in two broken latches. I filed down the lip of the door and it's much better, but I'm still looking for a door latch assembley. If you've found a supplier please let me know.
Thanks
Tony

Depending on what is broken, they are easily repairable. If you take it apart, you will see that there is not much to them. I have repaired them on two different coaches for much less than the cost of replacement. Otherwise, follow Lee's advice.
