Similar MaxxAir Roof Vent to MA00-07000K that Costs Less

Question:

I bought this unit to be installed after a roof replacement in April 2019. Unit worked very well for the 4 months I used it before COVID set in, then the unit was parked for 20 months. Now we are using it again I notice 3 of the 4 motor support brackets are cracked. The illustrated parts diagrams which came with the unit show a vent frame part #10-21217K would be required to repair this unit. Unfortunately this part is not available, or never was. According to Airexcel my only option is to purchase a new unit. Is this vent frame used in a less expensive unit I could purchase and cannibalize for parts? Or will the part become available again?

The most cost-effective Maxxair roof vent that is similar is the part # MA00-05301K to the # MA00-07000K. The frames are basically same so I would assume you could interchange like you are wanting.
