  • Awning mounting to steel rack

    Hi guys, just after some info or better yet photos of how you all mount an awning to steel roof racks (cages). Im thinking of getting a Powerfull 4x4 3/4 rack and mount up a Rhino Rack Awning to it. The awning comes with mounts for regular car roof racks but need some info on how to mount it to the cage..

    Cheers. Darran.

    Are you talking about this rack?

    If so, you could drill through the side plates to the same spacing as the awning mounting points. It would be at an angle though.

    Note that the rack itself weighs 40kg so you're left with 60kg weight capacity.

        I would just drill through the uprights and bolt it on.
