Hi all,
Does anybody have experience mounting a 270 degree awning to their pop-up truck camper? I am looking to buy a truck camper for 2022 season. I will require an awning and I already own an Overland Vehicle Systems 270 degree awning that I'd like to transfer over to the camper. I am concerned that when it wraps around the back, it will block the rear door and I am concerned about the weight as it's about 70 pounds.
I would prefer to keep and use this existing awning because 1) it is paid for and 2) I am not sure how sturdy the ATC/4WC awnings are, which is concerning because I often camp in an extremely windy mountain pass area and need to leave my awning open during the storms.
Pic of current awning to show the level of sturdiness I am looking for as far as the full aluminum frame, multiple tie downs etc.
