Sorry for the delay. I took advantage of the awesome weather up here in the northeast. I'm happy so far with this mod. I removed the old 10' tube and then removed the rear bracket assembly. I moved the bracket to the rear of the coach and installed the new tube. I need to fill the 5 holes that held the bracket in its old location. I ordered a 23' awning and if my measurements are correct there should only be 3" of tube visible when the awning is stored. Without the full length awning material I have to push the rear bracket up with a broom to get it to store. I believe this will be fixed once the full length awning is installed. The new tube is slightly smaller in diameter then the stock one. I just used some washers as shims to fill the gap. I'll post more pictures once I get the the new vinyl.
