Expert Reply:

I think I found a solution to your question. We carry the Square Corner Hinge with Reverse Bracket, # PLR2212-AS, that will replace your old hing on your RV. This hinge has the same dimensions as the part that you referenced, but the hinge bracket is made exactly like the one on your current hinge.
