Hi all, Does anyone know where I can get extended poles and braces for the wind out awning and rear steadies? I ask because I use a wheelchair and I just cant reach with the normal equipment.

hi kemi

the easiest thing i can think of is a trip to a local place that makes gates or does any type of welding. it would only be a ten min job for them to weld some extra round bar on for you.

The only way to hold down the awning in windy weather is with a tie down kit which needs to be threaded over the front and securely pegged down, no other way really. It should not be to difficult to to get a small metal working firm to extend the winding handle, they only need to remove the rivets holding the hooked end and piece in a length of tube before replacing the hook. The wind down steadys can be supplied and fitted by any motorhome dealer with workshop facilities.  Hope all this helps.  kiev
