The ZipDee GMC arms ar slightly different,.
It might be cost wise less if you get the Hardware Kit, I can cut you a
deal for $ 435 plus freight.
Airstream uses few length, GMC 26' comes with 17 ' 8"
Feel free to reach out to me for information.
Best to contact me on the phone as I hate one way messages.

One of our club members bought a airstream zip dee awning and fit it to gmc. It was longer. So he cut it down.

He is very handy, so not sure how he modified the arms, but he made it fit nice.

If you end up with one Reach out and I can you reach out to him.
