How does this sound?

I'm planning on outfitting my 80 with an Eazi Awn 1600 on an African Outback Roof Rack with half of the top rail. I would like the tent to open up over the back and hang over like an awning. I'm also thinking about an Eazi Awn Awning on the drivers side.

Do you guys see any issues with the rigging/mounting aspect of this?

Thanks in advance,

monkd

That is a classic setup and works really well.
I have tried mine opening over the rear, sides, and now it opens over the hood.
It is all personal preference but your setup is pretty normal and works.

I like over the passenger side since I use the tailgate as a kitchen area and the GF likes the privy area to get ready...LOL

Good luck
