A couple of weeks ago I bought the new Jayco Swift Outback.
The channel that holds the rope for the bag awning is 2.25m long with a few centemetres either end a little wider to start the rope threading on.
Awnings available are:
1.9m, with the fabric being 1.62m, and the bag length 1.96m
2.25m, with the fabric being 2.2m, and the bag length 2.36.
Obviously more which are longer
The first one would fit no worries.
The second is an extra 11cm, thus being 5.5cm longer either end for the bag.
Is this non support either end an issue with the use of the awning? I'm guessing when it is wound up for travelling the main pole should keep it stiff, but then would wind get under it and try to pull it out?
Trying to get as much awning as possible.
Anybody out there with a Swift, or similar size, know what size they have?
It's a five hour drive from here to the nearest place I can try one on.
While I can exchange if the size is wrong after ordering, it is a hassle with postage etc.
While your measuring. Any idea how long the telescopic legs extend to? Long enough for the outback version, which is higher than the onroad version? Last thing I want is the angle to be low enough for the top of the door to catch on, and rip.
Thanks
