    Camping a week ago, sans wife (admittedly more sparse camping)

    1. Stop truck
    2. Throw beach chair on ground
    3. Throw sleeping bag in the truck bed
    4. Enjoy a cold beverage

    Mounted ARB 2m awning

    Anyone here have an idea on torque specs for the awning brackets to roof rack (via roll in trac nuts on 10 series extruded aluminum), and for the awning to the bracket?

    I torqued trac nuts to 20 in-lbs and awning to bracket is at 50 in-lbs. Feels solid but just wondering if there are specs I can’t find.

    Only used it twice so far. The first time it was very windy and it was great. I got it during their black Friday sale and it has half off...$400. I'm pretty happy with it so far.
