Silver GoWesty Fiamma Awning Brackets.....

Syncronoid

Can't find any? ....me neither, so a can of Jasco and several hrs of labor later....voila!

Just didn't like the look of the big black brackets when the awning isn't on for around-towning. The raw steel blends in much better with my silver paint and pop-top.

Heading down to Syncrofest for the day on Saturday or Sunday with the family. Can't wait!

Are those raw aluminum brackets now? Raw aluminum likes to corrode to a white powdery finish.

When using 3 brackes, how do you deal with the slight bow in the body? Won't that deforem the fiamma casing a bit?

If you have the 10ft awning it is not something I would take on and off, it is a hefty beast.

Regarding the 3 brackets, I found that the awning still flexes the rain gutter when 4-wd, even w/ 3 brackets. So, I had to use threaded rivets to bolt the 1st and last bracket to the body.

Let me know if you want more info on the threaded rivets.
