Thank you. I was concerned about how I would mount the awning on an old Grand Caravan minivan. This explanation & mounting options was just what I needed, will be ordering.
Thank you! Starting at :49 seconds we go over several methods to attach the L brackets to any type of crossbar, including hose clamps, or u-bolts, etc...
The Awnings work fantastic in a downpour if you set them up properly. In a big rain event lower one of the vertical poles to create a run-off path for the rain. The harder the rainfall the more of a steep pitch you need to make for the runoff. Here's a fun video we made showing this important technique. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5nF2vPu8L-Q.html
@Ironman 4x4 America thank you! Especially for making quality products. Just received my suspension from you, next will be a bumper and winch, then skid plates and thr awning. Ps: have you considered rock sliders for the fj?
The Prinsu awning brackets will make for a definite fit. Otherwise, the L brackets will work with a spacer to clear the Prinsu side rails. 2 brackets are necessary for the 8ft awning.
The hardware that comes with the awning will not work to install the L bracket to the cross bars. You will need to pick up either nut plates, or t bolts to mount the L bracket to the crossbars. Hope that helps.
Just goit my awning todayt along with a set of Atlas racks, stoked! It would be nice though if the awning came with a set of tee-nuts and spacers to be able to instal them on any channel rack or platform as these are basically universal if I'm not mistaken? Looks like a trip to Homedepot is required after all. Lets see how they both hold up to the elements when in use!
Awesome! Thank you for the feedback. The awning is very vehicle rack generic, but agree that the cross bars kit could do with some tee-nuts. I'll pass this on to the product team. Thank you for your business and enjoy!

The parts are often in the frame of the awning so it must be unrolled to get to them. But if you are missing additional pieces please reach out to our customer service team and they can get you taken care of much faster than commenting here on RU-vid. 👍 855-476-5714
@@Ironman4x4America Mine was the exact same. Unrolled it, no accessories inside the awning, either. Headed out this week, without the ability to use my awning I suppose. Terrible. I already filed a note on your "contact us"; unfortunately, the number you listed above gave an out-of-office message.
