It weighs in just under 40lbs and my build was closer to $300 I spent more on a few extras and price of steel has gone up as well.
And this can also be configured for passenger side for switching vehicles.

absolutely amazing! it looks so much more professional then mine! haha

@mikeanderson2000 3 года назад

Haha thanks! I’m expecting this tarp to not last but that’s ok! I might source out a light canvas or something one day when it finally tears to shreds. I had so much fun building this. The Rav4 is also just temporary while I shop for a new rig. But it works pretty good for now!

Your design is amazing I've seen so many people using it in their videos

I love the simplified prop up hinge setup you have for the tarp!

Dude, just came upon this, awesome build

@freeidaho-videos Месяц назад

I'm in favor of this design. I like the shortened pieces in the arms to keep weight down. One thing I keep asking, is where does the rain water go? Seems like it would run into the hatch with the hatch open.

@FJTrailblazer Год назад

How is the rain fly holding up? The prop up arms are the way to go, good mod!

Hi, Weatherday I just picked up my 2022 RAV4 TRAIL and was looking for a 270 awning and came across your video. Thank you for taking the time to share it with us. I have a couple of questions for you. How is the noise when at highway speeds? I was wondering why you decided to install the awning on the driver's side for me I think I would rather place the awning on the passenger side; my reason is; if ever I park On the side of the road for a bit I can set up not being in the way of traffic but to each his own. I don’t know if I will build my own but if you are considering replacing your tarp or zip check out JT’S OUTDOOR FABRICS they are in Barrie, Ontario, and are great people to work with. Play safe from Elliot Lake, Ontario, Canada.

@mikeanderson2000 2 года назад

Hi! Good questions. It’s totally quiet on the highway. I now have a zipper cover that zips up pretty snug. One reason for that install is how the rear door opens. I wanted to have a bit of a wall in the corner and a nice covered space that is useful when the rear hatch is open. It would be awkward having the 270 swing from passenger side for that reason. If it were a van set up with the slider or something then ya passenger side for sure. Cool thing about this build is you can configure it on either side pretty easy..

@tinkermouse-scottrussell3738 2 года назад

@@mikeanderson2000 Thank you for the quick return. I even watched you open the door it just didn’t register with me. My RAV4 opens upward and I am over 6’ looks as if I will need to extend the mounts. Again play safe from Elliot Lake, Ontario, Canada.

@FranciscoGonzalez-ng8ji Год назад

What type of fabric you used for the tarp…and how many yards to do it.

@velocity800 2 года назад

you still have your Rav4? if not , are you thinking of selling the awning set up?--Bob

@Swimdeep 3 года назад

Love it. Very innovative and practical. Can you estimate how much it cost you to make?

@mikeanderson2000 3 года назад

About $300 could be cheaper if you don’t need the aluminum pieces. The steel was $150, tarp $35, hardware $20, cover is costing about $40 to make. And $30 in paint…. The Aluminum angle was $50 all in Canadian Dollars Not including consumables like saw blades and flapper discs etc.

@Swimdeep 3 года назад

@@mikeanderson2000 Thank you for showing off your handiwork. Would love a follow-up video field testing it with the new zippered cover and staked down. Curious how it does in wind/rain. Thanks for the info. Gonna check out the tutorial.

@hikeyourownhike1700 2 года назад

I am considering a similar sonstruction for a 180°. How has this held up in the wind. Is it strong enough to be just staked down or do you use poles?

@mikeanderson2000 2 года назад

poles are good if you plan to keep it up for longer then a few hours. 2 poles, one on the far rear passenger side arm, and one on the forward driver side arm works great. stops any wobble because if one goes up the other goes down. The poles stop that movement all together.

@eutoob 2 года назад

How long is that 4th arm? I'm currently building mine for a 2003 CR-V and I may need to add one as well. PS: we live in the same part of the planet.

@mikeanderson2000 2 года назад

I think its about 4 feet. best bet it to make one specific to your set up! another option is to just add a little extension you can pop into the back corner of roof rack to tie tarp off to. then remove while not using.

@christophervela5447 3 года назад

Really cool

@alexross4062 Год назад

So the arms tuck inside of the aluminum frame you made to hold it?

@mikeanderson2000 Год назад

Ya basically. The aluminum frame along with the angle iron bracket make it a stand alone unit. So I can move it to another vehicle pretty easily. The frame isn’t necessarily required if you have a large roof top basket for example, that can help strap the arms down

@mikeanderson2000 Год назад

And another reason for the Frame is the front corner of the tarp is fastened to it. Other applications require you to fasten the tarp to a roof rack or basket.

@alexross4062 Год назад

@@mikeanderson2000 I can see how you could tie it into just the OEM roof rack mounting points even if it's a standalone frame. Gonna have to try that when I make mine!

@velocity800 2 года назад

how's the awning holding up?

@mikeanderson2000 2 года назад

It’s great, the tarp I used is very thin, so it has some burn holes in it from fires and stuff. The arms and frame are solid and show no signs of wear. The cover has been redone as a zipper with vinyl fabric.

@fd.evansyah6212 2 года назад

can you give the info about aluminum that you use? the thickness and the lenght?

@mikeanderson2000 2 года назад

Check out overland under budget build series on this. Covers all the dimensions and materials. The arms are steel, 3/4 inch 1/16” wall. All about 7’ long. One of them is 7’4” I think. It’s been a year since I built it.

Did you have to stitch it?

@mikeanderson2000 2 года назад

@@velocity800 yes I cut it into an L shape and then stitched the cut ends to hem them off. An the part in the pivot point is cut to allow it to stretch when opening.
