Thread: 4WD side awnings

Heaps of different brands out there - been using the Adventure Kings 2x3 for a few years, finally bent the 2 horizontal poles in a gust of wind - can't purchase replacement poles in NZ but can do in Aussie but won't supply to the NZ agent - weird?
Anyway been looking at ARB, Ironman, Dobinson, a few unnamed brands etc all pretty much a copy of each other with either cast ali or plastic knuckes. Not sure you get what you pay for as been online and the horizontal poles bending appears the an issue if not careful with the wind conditions?
So what do others recommend or use out there?
