Hey Nessa, great question!

We do have some shorter arms with the kit # LC351829 which has 61-1/2" long arms in a black color, and then we have a variety of awning fabric lengths and colors to choose from (see attached link).

We also have some alternative awning options like ones that work with windows or the Thule HideAway Awning # TH490011 that mounts to a wall so it's a bit more universal than most other awnings.

Thank you for your response. I appreciate it. My camper is a 8.6 in length, and it's a older camper. I was planning on a manual awning. The Thule is a lot like the Carefree box awning. I don't believe I can have any longer than 8.6?? I wish I could send pictures to you..

@Nessa Thanks for the extra information! It sounds like you're needing the Thule HideAway Awning # TH490018 instead which measures 6' 6" Long x 8' 6" Wide.

@JonG which would be the length, front to back, or overhead to tail lights?

@Nessa The Thule awning can technically be installed either on the side or the back of your camper. The 6'6" measurement is how far out it extends while the 8'6" measurement is the width so that would be how much space it takes up on your camper.
