Awning mounting

[mudski]

Thanks three dogs. I am a stubborn male so I'll see how we go haha.

Mudski, is that the L bracket with a longer bolt on the top to a drilled hole?

No L brackets mate. A short bolt slides into the bottom rail of the awning, a longer one in the top. Then two hole drilled into the side upright of the rack.... Thats all... You can see the top bolt has a nut and a washer holding the bolt in the rail so it doesn't move when trying to mount the awning. Then there is another nut you can see, which is on the outside section of the upright, then another nut on the inside of the upright. Hope that makes sense.

Thanks to the both of you. Makes sense mudski. Might give that a go. Three dogs is mounted on the passenger side.

The bolt you need is a 6mm stainless would be choice of steel

Mine is mounted on the same angle. I've never had a problem, though next time I'd do similar to mudski

My rear awning is not like my side one and it does point up. I keep meaning to correct it as i nearly broke it one day on and off camber slope of ground i decided to use it on

And yeah as TD said. Use stainless steel bolts.
