I've completed most of the restoration on my gmc motorhome and plan to order a new zip dee awning. I have fabricated a roof top aluminum deck and the support posts are secured to the coach's ribs which are close to where the folded awning will rest. I'd like to measure your 26 foot motorhome's awning to make sure the posts clear the awning before I order a new zip dee.

My motorhome is located in the knobs and I live in Louisville, so either area would be convenient.

Please send me a note off list if you can assist. won't take long, just need to double check some measurements.

kindest regards,

Larry Stickler

Zip De said that you can bend the lower aluminum arm 10-15 degrees
without weakning it.
