On the first trip of the year a couple of weeks ago we had a couple of things happen to our awning & poles.

Firstly the poles which I believe are either steel or aluminium - the centre roof pole connects to the centre joint using a ball & socket but got twisted a bit more than was good for it & snapped off! - the ball (of the ball & socket) originally had a bolt protruding from it which screwed into a thread on the main joint. Can anyone advise how I may get a new ball with the bolt inserted please?

Secondly when putting the canvas on the middle rubber pole holder snapped off meaning that (if I had one!) the centre pole now has nowhere to hook into on the caravan side of the awning - does anyone have any ideas how I can remedy this please?

Thanks

I think the awning is too old - no ID on the awning either.

Ideally what I would like is an adjustable roof pole with a "C" clamp on one end to to connect to the front horizontal awing pole & the other end with a rubber pad which would be held against the caravan by tension. I seem to remember my dad having one similar for a tent many years ago.

Does anyone know where I might get such an item please?
