I want to put together my son's crib for the new baby.
I notice that the top nylon slide from the drop rail is broken. I wanted to know if I can order just the drop rail so I can replace it in the crib?

Place an insert nut into the top of the stationary rail.
Place another nut into the bottom of that same rail.
Flip that rail over and put another nut into the top and bottom of it the same as you just did.
Now stick a two bolts into one side of the headboard.
Stand up the headboard and twist them bolds from the headboard into the stationary rail.
Now you want to twist two bolts through the secondary headboard and through the other side of the stationary rail. Make sure not to tighten them bolts up to much yet.
Now put the mattress support inside the crib.
Take four bolts into the top holes that are pre-drilled in the slat on the headboard and then on through to the mattress support.
Do the same now with the other slat support for the headboard.
Now do the same with the two remaining slats for the secondary headboard.
Now tighten all the bolts real well.
Put the crib on it's side.
Now your gonna stick the canisters into the legs. Tap them in with a hammer if they are a bit stubborn.
Now slide the rubber off of the lower side bracket.
Hold the front drop rail so that the push plate faces away from the crib.
Now slide that front drop rail on the tracks until it is all the way in the crib and then reinstall the rubber stoppers.
Now put the crib on it's casters and go over the crib and give it a once over and make sure everything is secure and tight.
When it comes to Child Craft products crib conversion rails they can get the low down for you. Give them a call or email - very prompt service and knowledgeable. I have a discontinued crib and NO CRIB #. With a little bit of work though Baby's Own Room got the answers for me and I promptly ordered the conversion rails I needed.
the hazard has been identified so there is a danger in putting a baby in the crib
if you get a heavy material crib liner sewn up an put it in the cot with the edges properly secured over the sides then that will prevent the baby's head getting between the slats
the only problem there is , it reduces air flow into the baby so the baby may over heat
in reality , it is the babies life that is more important then the sentimentality of the crib so invest in a safe option
immediately call the manufacturer and tell them. sometimes in factories pieces are left behind by mistake. in addition contact the store where you purchased the brand new crib one of those two should be able to help.
Forget it. I tired with Cosco and they don't have parts for cribs over 8 years old. robably the best crib ever made - for the want of a small part it goes to the dump.
