Installation of Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning Bar Spacing
Question:
I just ordered this awningand the upward brackets and Im super stoked! I have a 2019 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. I just installed the Rhino Rack Vortex SG cargo racks on my rig. But Im not sure if they are spaced apart properly for the awning. Right now, they are about 4 feet apart and placed towards the front of the Jeepsee included picture. Is this set up OK or do you recommend changing the positioning of my racks? Thank you!

Glad you are stoked about getting the Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning! It is a great product. Did you get the Extension Piece too, # RR31101? Depending on orientation of the sun you may want t have that option available. But as for making the connection to your rig, placement needs to be about 31-1/2 inches apart. You may need to adjust further when time to connect to your Jeep but this is a good start point. You may/may not need to adjust either way it is not overly challenging you will be good-to-go.
