Can Yakima Slim Shady Roll-Out Awning Y07409 Install on Yakima Roof Rack on Tear Camper

Question

Question:

I have a T@G tear with Yakima heavy cross mount roof rack for kayak or bikes. Will this work off the roof of the tear, as it works off the roof of a car? I cannot see why not.

Yes, you can mount the Yakima SlimShady Roll-Out Awning # Y36VR to the Yakima crossbars that are mounted to the top of your teardrop camper as long as those crossbars are spaced apart at least 24-inches on a flat surface.

This particular bar spread is required for stability but the SlimShady installs on just about any size and shape of crossbar, including Yakima round bars like # Y8810025, Thule square bars like # TH712400 and even the wider elliptical/aero-style bars like the Thule AeroBade bars # TH711420.

The T@B tear trailer roof racks are installed at a fairly sharp angle that follows the trailer's roofline so the awning may be tilted at an angle.

I do have a solution for you but unfortunately the Yakima SlimShady Awning #Y36VR does not have any side panels that you can add. We do have the Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning #RR32132 though which is a little bit larger and is comparable to the…

An awning like the Yakima SlimShady #Y36VR can be mounted directly on your LoadWarrior. However, there are no brackets that will allow you to mount it on the side. Brackets like the #Y84AR you were looking at are designed to fit in T-slots so they…
