The awning on my coach was attached with large stainless steel sheet metal screws, after 30+ years they were stripping out of the sheet metal.
I was surprised that there was no support behind the upper mounts and only one of the screws on each of the lower mounts had any support behind it.
I took them all out and installed 1/4 x 20 rivet nuts and stainless bolts tonight, really slick and should hold for another 30 years.
How are the awnings attached on the newer coaches?
