You will need a 13mm Spanner, 6mm Allen Key and a pair of scizzors/ sidecutters at the very least to effictively install the kit to your vehicle.This bracket set is immensely strong - Care should be taken to guy down and even Run poles on Pole less wing awnings in unprectable wind to ensure no damage is occassioned to your awning or vehicle should wind strength exceed the awnings load limits.

This kit fits all models of Troop Carrier from 1984 to present. However - Vehicles converted to Pop Tops or that have gutter modifications in any way can alter the gutter angles - Please check that your vehicles gutters have full width clearance and are not filled with Resign, Sealant or damaged by rust.
Gutter area where the brackets are to be fitted MUST BE in good condition. If they are not and you wish to run this bracket system, You risk failure.. (rust takes out the strength).
Suits 270 Degree Swing out Wing awnings up to 10 sqm, ONLY REAR Pivot 270 Degree awnings are OK, forward pivoting awnings cannot be fitted. 360 Awnings cannot be fitted, Nor can this bracket set be used for awnings that swing through Multiple Angles (ie. 270 at rear, 180 at front...) The Front bracket is not Twist resistant and cannot handle the loads of forward swinging awnings.
Awnings in General that are Larger than 12 Sqm are not supported - as twist loads will exceed the troopcarriers Gutter Load capacity in strong wind and damage can occur.
While all care has been taken to Ensure these brackets are as strong as we can make them - Tough Touring will not be responsible for Damage occassioned to your vehicle, awning or brackets due any damage occassioned by excessive wind - Or failure of any awning or bracket component over time. It is reccommended that Gutter integrity and Bracket tightness s checked periodically to ensure fail safe use.
