Well, I finally got the damper kit for the bottom vents, but the weather didn't cooperate today. Best $7 I have spent. I tried reforming the old ones, but these are hard to get back into shape for a good fit. The first time I fired her up the temp was hard to control. Can't wait until next weekend.

OK, I am fairly sure they are the same. Here is another link.

Yes - they are also used on the 22 in WSM. Ordered them from Weber. I had ordered from ereplacements , but they were back ordered. Weber sent them quickly, and I registered my RK at the same time.
They have some nuts that allow you to tighten to the screw/damper to achieve a good fit but allow to adjust the damper.

You mean a lock nut with plastic, or one of those goofy metal lock nuts? 8)

Goofy metal lock nuts.

I know the replacement part website is talked about here, but I have to say that Weber prices on everything I needed for my SS performer were actually cheaper than the other site. Not only that, but my stuff all shipped out the next day, where the other site said 9-16 days. Maybe not in all cases, but in my case, Weber was not only cheaper, but faster.

That is correct. But sometimes ordering form Weber is a pain. They want serial numbers for everything you buy. The great thing about the ereplacements site is the ability to easily see parts and get prices. I would expect Weber to be Cheaper, after all, they made it. 8)

I better get the serial number for the 1965 ranch I have.... ;)
-
Yeah, and what number would that be?
I want to hear the call you make. Probably something like this:
"Hello Weber, yes ma'am, I need to order some parts for my old grill. Yes ma'am, it was made in 1965. No ma'am this is no joke. Yes, I can hold while you talk to a supervisor... 5 minutes pass... Hello sir, I'm sorry, we haven't made parts for that grill in over 45 years. Thanks for calling, have a nice day... click"

That's strange because I called and told the lady I needed x parts for my SS performer and she started looking stuff up for me. (without a S/N) Lady must have spent 15-20 minutes on the phone with me going over my order and all information to make sure I got all the right stuff.

Weber, I've found, not through a huge amount of calls, but some, are a lot like the IRS......
If you're not getting a satisfactory answer, back out gracefully, hang up, call a day or so later, at a different time of day & you'll most likely get a different answer.....
