This pack contains:    

  • 2 x Bodies:  these bolt directly onto a roof rack or roof rack mounted pull-out awning bracket

  • 2 x Pins (with lanyard):  this ties each Body and Holder together on the roof rack; all of which are locked together with an in-built barrel lock

The RacksBrax HD Hitch Standard Pack also includes 2 Prop Cleats which allow a pull-out awning to be pitched freestanding once it is erected off the side of a vehicle. See instructions for more detail.

The RacksBrax HD Hitch Standard Pack come with stainless steel fasteners to suit both M6 and M8 sized drill holes in either the accessory bracket or the roof rack; both bolt sizes are also provided to allow for awning spine tracks which suit M6 or M8 bolts.

Fast on, fast off!

Make your awning stand up on its own with our HD Hitch range.

One of the things that blows people's minds is how we can make any pull-out awning (Foxwing Hitch range coming soon... watch this space) stand on its own without your vehicle in the way so it frees it up to go shopping, 4WDing somewhere else, etc. etc.

Using our HD Hitch range and Prop Cleats that come in the box, easily make your awning freestanding in no time at all!

What you'll need

  • Any of our RacksBrax HD Hitches fixed to your vehicle and awning of choice
  • Prop Cleats fixed to your awning (included in the box)
  • 8 x guys ropes (we recommend 8; 2 for each corner) (not included)
  • 8 x pegs (appropriate for the composition of the surface you want your awning to be standing on) (not included)
  • A Mallet (not included: it couldn't fit in the box)

Just a few simple steps ...

  • 1. Set up your pull-out awning as normal.
  • 2. Place a pair of tent poles, featuring a c-clip, close to your vehicle. Attach these poles to the horizontal bars on your awning.
  • 3. Attach a guy rope to the Prop Cleats at the front and rear sides of the vehicle and tighten pegs.
  • 4. Unhitch awning from vehicle and rest weight on C-clip tent poles.
  • 5. Move your vehicle.
  • 6. Place another set of guy ropes around Prop Cleats and peg where your vehicle was.
  • 7. Adjust pegs and pole placement if required.
