Any good hardware store will have the square drives.

It's called a Robertson screwdriver, but most people just call it a square drive. There are three sizes used in the RT, I believe #1, #2, and #3. Sears has them, any good hardware store or RV supply should have them. You can also buy just the different size bits to go in a common driver handle.

Hi Moxie06,
Welcome aboard! If I could locate my extra Roadtrek tool I'd sent it to you.

Three sizes? I've only encountered #1 and #2 in a Pleasure-Way. Also, in the United States I've only seen #1 and #2 sizes commonly sold in True Value and Ace hardware stores. Those two sizes are easily found but I can't recall ever seeing a #3 in stores.

I got one at Lowes last year - one of those 1-handle, multiple screwdriver tips/bits by swapping the shaft around-things with several square-drive sizes included - cost under $10. ST

Roadtrek sent a stubby version of that with our 07.

They also come in other numbers. 1= 6 2 = 8 3 = 10
#6 - light green handle
#8 - red handle - most common size -
#10 - dark green handle - for large screw openings.
You may see on the plastic container of screws.. # 8 / 1"
The screws are much easier to use than the Philips screws-
The inventor of the Robertson screw - P.L.Robertson would not sell
Henry Ford the total licence- therefore he lost out and the Philip's
became the US standard.

My 1999 Roadtrek came with all three. And I've used all of them on the RT over the years.
