We bought a new '03 Itasca Spirt 24V.
The awning that came it seemed short. So I ordered a new longer canvas and tube.
When I started mounting it I found that, by drilling a hole to put in the lag screw to hold the top bracket that the mh frame did not extend back that far. I saved the day by injecting epoxy in the cavity, and then turning the screws into it.
I still have the original aluminum tube and canvas, if anyone in interested. It's about 11 feet long.
