G'day,

I have a Zip Dee awning I intend to ship to Australia for The Blue Streak.

Unfortunately when I was disassembling it I broke a tab off one of the
heads.

Here's a picture of the broken and good head:

If anyone has one please contact me at robmueller at iinet dot net dot au.

Thanks,
Rob M.

  None of the links to GMC photos work for me. Come up as a broken link. Do I have to reset something?

David,

You are correct, however, the new heads do not have the cast in logos
they're vinyl stick on.

Rob,
I think I have two of them. I will look for them sometime today. I want to keep one as an extra in case I break one. Will you need it before Amana?

I believe you will find that each end is different. So if you have only one then it would be a 50% chance you would have the right one if one breaks. Check out the pictures from Rob. Rob you should post as to whether you need the right or left one (when facing the awning from outside the motorhome).

<<< each end is different.>>>

mmm Observant catch Emery, the slot just above where the one is broken is wider on one end than the other. The wider part of the slots are facing each other.

David,

You are correct, however, the new heads do not have the cast in logos
they're vinyl stick on.

you can't see both ends of the awning at the same time....

Larry,

Great! Nope I won't need them before Amana. I have three Zip Dee awnings:

1 will be used to replace the A&E on Double Trouble and the other two get
shipped to Australia for The Blue Streak. The awnings were stolen when the
PO shipped it from Long Beach.

BTW I would suggest that anyone that wants to disassemble a Zip Dee soak the
ends of the rod that go into these heads with LOTS of penetrating fluid
BEFORE you start banging on them to get them off!

Regards,
Rob M.

Rob,
I think I have two of them. I will look for them sometime today. I want to
keep one as an extra in case I break one. Will you need it before Amana?

David,

Correct, but you've forgotten that I am an anally retentive perfectionist
and I would know they're not the same which would drive me insane! ;-)

Jim,

Thanks for your generous offer, however, IIRC you had one on your table at
Shawnee and I looked at it. I think it was the wrong one.

Before you send it please compare it to the picture below to make sure it's
the correct one:

Rob,
I think I have one new one the way you want.
I will get it for my cost to you,
I'm at Casa De Fruita at Western States.
Manny and Dave D. have done a great job of planning.

Jim

Well, I checked and I have one. I had to think a while why I don't have two of them and it came to me that when we were at Dequoin doing the coach weighing, I had my coach at the weigh-in with awning out for shade for the workers. Somehow...still unknown to me...the rear arm hit something, or got hit, and bent the arm, breaking that piece. So, I only have one left. It would be the front one...but I would just a-soon keep it as the spare I will need someday when I pull a bonehead and break the front one. Sorry Rob.

Rob,

Buy two new ones that match.

Sometimes being anal costs more... I would rather go insane.
