hanibal style Awning
hanibal style Awning
I got a request for one of these last year and finally got too it.
I also plan on building a pivoting arm to move the awning from side to rear but prefer doing that when I have the host vehicle present.

Re: hanibal style Awning
I like!
in the pic it looks like it is held on temporaly by clamps. how will it be held on normally? and is there a way to use it with the canvas on the the truck and not have to permanatly modify anything?
I recently purchased a new tough river top so I am not looking to modify it, but the idea of an awning is very apealing.

Re: hanibal style Awning
The awning was designed for attachment to a roof rack. I just put it up on my truck to give folks an idea of what can be done. I suppose one could be mounted to the outside of the canvas but new d rings or footman loops would have to be added to the awning frame to hold up the rolled up side.

Re: hanibal style Awning
the canvas has a pitch to it to shed water away from the truck but because it's mounted on my angled roll member it runs a bit up hill. I was also thinking I can make this hook onto the factory canvas support if it were to be used without a roof rack.
I could also make it shorter to fit inside the truck when not in use. This one was made for a volvo 303 with an exoskeleton.

Very Slick!
Being able to roll up a 710m side and mount it would be cool

Nice! I like the eyelets, gives an option to put guy wires on if the wind gets a little nasty.

Re: hanibal style Awning
everything should have more than one purpose or the build was not a success. Also would make a great place to hang the beer bong.

Re: hanibal style Awning
Andre,
Put one awning on each side and open them both.
People will no longer ask if these things float, they'll ask if they fly!
