Wind break for a hi ace wind out awning
Permalink  

im after ideas on how to get some wind relief in a hi ace with a scissor action wind out awning.  There are no poles on the sides to secure something to like the caravan.  Can anyone help with ideas please?

Would it be possible to put a couple of saddles on the frame to enable a couple of poles to be used with some guy ropes.

The saddles can be bought from places like BCF, Stainless would be best. Pop riveted on or even some of the rope guides ( Nylon Fairleads) could be used. The type that have a round hole to put the rope through. They would do the job if they can be attached to the frame. Have a look in the Whitworths catalogue online. Search for 'Economy nylon fairlead' to see what I am referring to.

Hope you get it worked out.
