awning on slide out

[trickto322]

We have a Montana 3611rl that has a slide next to the entry door. We would like to put awning on the slide. The problem is the 10 foot awning looks to small and the 11 foot looks better however, the 11 foot bottom brackets (hard to explain) has two screws holding it to the slide. One screw goes into the slide and the other goes into the trim piece around slide. I am wondering if this would work?

Wouldnt that put a lot of stress on the slideout? I've already had to have ours adjusted because it got out of square

I'm assuming you are installing a manual awning? That bottom bracket takes a beating and holds a lot of weight from that awning. I don't think that trim would do you any good. Much better off going with the 10' if that keeps the brackets in the wall area.
