Hello Jose. Our best option for replacing your Power Converter Model CS6000XL is the Progressive Dynamics RV Control Center part # PD4560K18LS8. The American CS6000XL that you referenced is discontinued, so this will be our closest option for replacing it since it has the same amperage rating. The panel itself is 14-1/8" tall x 11-3/16" long x 8-1/2" deep and it requires a 13-1/4" tall x 10-1/8" long cutout.

Hey Jose, how did the replacement with the Progressive Dynamics converter work out for your setup? It sounds like a solid match for the old CS6000XL. Your update could make it easier for the next person facing the same issue.

Hey Jesse, I have a 2007 Wildwood and the converter has gone out. I have the CS6000XL model like this one mentioned above but my dimensions are different to the tune that I don’t think the one you suggested would fit. My unit is 11-1/4” tall and 13-1/2” wide and the cut out is 10-3/4” tall 11-3/4” wide. I didn’t get a depth measurement but I am hoping to get a suggestion that would fit my trailer. Thanks in advance.

@ClintS Hey Clint. We don't have an exact dimensional match for the CS6000XL, so you're going to be modifying the cutout either way. If you don't have room to go larger, we do have a smaller option, the Progressive Dynamics 4000 Series RV Converter w/ Charge Wizard and AC/DC Distribution Panel # PD4060K. This is 12-1/4" long x 8-3/4" tall x 7-1/4" deep overall and requires a 10-3/4" long x 7-1/4" tall cutout.
