Unfortunately not; we're an independent help site and don't sell or carry anything.

If you can't get what you seek from the manufacturer [use the contact information here--https://www.contacthelp.com/ridgid/customer-service], request a part number. Then (with a part number if possible) try
  1. http://www.searspartsdirect.com/ [call if necessary]
  2. a search engine like Google's or Yahoo's
  3. http://www.searchtempest.com/, which displays global listings from eBay, Craigslist, and other sources

(For option 3, you may want to use a free tracking program like http://www.trackengine.com/ to save you from having to repeat your search over time.)
