Hi,
Please tell us the make and model of your awning. There are lots of awning makes and models within the make.
Pictures also help explain your damage and what parts may still be available.
I restore older campers and deal with 20 to 25-year-old awnings frequently, mainly the A&E brand by Dometic. Some parts are available, but Dometic is starting to discontinue some of them.
Again, posting pictures of the awning hardware helps. The Dometic A & E Sunchaser series kept changing the end caps on the roller tube and then the mount to the awning arm, often until they got it right, I think. Pic's help us hone in on what vintage you have.
I hope this helps,
John
