Tell her to ask somebody who is selling them (online - ebay, etsy, etc.) - they will often custom make anything she wishes!

DW also fixed/shortened the bunk curtains as they were a bit long from the factory and ended up on top of the bed

We considered raising the bracket but that would have left holes.

Tom,

Where did you get the bracket for the awning? Also, does it catch the material when you retract it?

Great looking mods Tom. Now I have to keep DW away from your thread or we'll never get out the driveway!

Amazon, I think Aero_Dave may have a link on his mod page.

It works perfectly, pivots out and in and doesn't catch.

EDIT: make that Walmart

Latest mod was installing JT Strong Arms and have to say they make a huge difference in removing trailer motion.

The installation took a few hours, just make sure you have good drill bits!

Force, looks great. Did you do this while camping? Can you post the link to where you got them, and what the part # is ?

Negative, was at home, but it's an easy enough job and only takes a few tools so you can do it almost anywhere. Took just 2-3 hours.

Yes, that kit is all you need

Also my wife just let me know it took closer to 6 hours to install them. I must have taken more breaks than I thought lol
