ARB ANNEX ROOM INSTALLATION TIPS AND TRICKS!

[@philipking8426]

I dont often like, subscribe and comment, but you did a good job and it was the best video about this awning room so I felt you deserved it.

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

@@philipking8426 thank you sir. Stay tuned, as after close to 150 nights with this room we are building ourselves a new one and its going to be even more awesome!

[@davidspencer2663]

I just got back from a trip in the Superior National Forest just north of Lake Superior. It rained heavily almost every day. I have an Ironman awning and annex room over the galley of my Bean teardrop camper. Without your reinforcement ideas I am certain my awning would have been ruined. I can’t thank you enough for your videos and ideas.

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

@@davidspencer2663 thank you very much for watching and the kind words. Glad we were able to help. We have a mod that wenhave been working on for sometime now that may help you even more. Stay tuned, I am swamped now but I will get a video out on it soon.

[@jamesmartin7282]

You are both thoughtful and methodical! Although I don't have a teardrop camper, you gave me several ideas for adding an annex room to my 17' travel trailer. Great video!

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

@@jamesmartin7282 thank you sir. Hope the videos help!

Notching the tarp for the wheel is brilliant. That will be a big (but small) improvement to my awning + 4Runner camping set up

I have one of those campers with the ARB awnings and room. Thanks for the great videos and tips ! Very helpful.

[@cindysadventuresinstitching]

Very easy to follow step by step instructions. Much needed advice. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Great job.

When using the Longarm poles, along with the “T,” I ziptie them on to the top poles, as well as stake them to the ground.

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

@@jasonmoore6448 the tees we make snap onto the tube so tight the can't fall off. They have to unsnapped off of the tube in order to remove them.

[@jasonmoore6448]

@@adventuresofthememorymakers I cut them so they’d snap on. I ziptie them because, well, I guess I’m paranoid 😬

Thank you so much, I've reluctant to use the annex with the wind and rain coming in. I was pretty much had it in mind to do a number of things you went over, but now I'm good to go.... thanks. t

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

You're very welcome sir and thank you for watching. I hope this video helps you get the most out of your Annex room. Please stay tuned For an upcoming video that shows how we deal with preventing water from collecting on top of our Annex room

[@gregspeakman9337]

Great vid. I am looking forward to using the mod annex you did for me.

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

Thank you very much for watching greg. I had a great time doing the annex room mod for you. Hope you and your wife have a lot of fun with it!

[@Dante07cid]

Thanks so much for these videos. I have a Hike trailer. Ordered the Arb and planning to install. I got the 6.5 ft wide. If I was brave I would try to do the door mod myself but may be getting ahold of you.

Hello, We have a custom built square back 10 x 6 camper with an ARB awning and awning room.. If we were to be traveling thru IN, could we stop in and have you look at our set up and see if you can make the modification? Thank you

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

@@tomreichert8500 sure thing. Please email us at [e-mail] and we can discuss it further.

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

Thank you sir!

[@mikekruse4674]

Well done. Noticed you have the lighted version of the awning. I've noticed that the power connector on the awning side tends to get deformed when rolled up during Oklahoma summers making it difficult to connect to the extension that plugs into a 12 volt connection. Have you found a good "protective cover" that won't cut or stress the awning fabric when rolling it up? I've been thinking about leaving that "pig tail" out while rolling and maybe using a wooden bead with a bigger hole drilled into it.

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

Thank ypu for watching. I myself have not experienced that issue but I can see where it could happen. The wood bead is a good idea or just swap the connector out.

[@williamlee7782]

Love your videos on the ARB deluxe awning room. Have a favor to ask. Can you measure the dimensions of the ceiling panel from seam to seam? I am planning to use this product for my Eezi-awn Manta 270 so this is critical for deciding which size room to get. Thank you!

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

Thank you for watching. You need the ceiling panel of the room or awning?

[@williamlee7782]

@@adventuresofthememorymakers Just the room. I noticed that it sets back from the edges of the awning. I emailed you as well. Thank you!

[@ABoperaAB]

I love this. I have a Runaway Range Runner. Do you do ARB mods for it?

Please send us an email at [e-mail] and we will discuss that with you.

Does the extension bar with the tennis ball on it keep you from having to lower a corner when it rains? We always seem to get water in the room when we lower a corner from where the room gathers at the bottom and the zipper. What size t fittings did you use for the outside extension poles? Great mods and I am going to do some of these! Thanks for all the tips!

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

Thank you for taking the time to watch and nothe tennis ball does not prevent water from collecting. I simply used the tennis ball to get the room ceiling elevated so it did not rub on my head. We have another mod that we've been working on for almost a year now that prevents water from collecting on the awning without having to drop the corner of the room but we're just not quite ready to release it yet. I personally can't stand dropping the corner and since we've been using our modification we don't. I use a 3/4 inch CPVC T fitting. It snaps on to the inner tube of the sidearm that way if the room lift's a little in the wind it does not disconnect.

[@BeccyAGarvin]

Thank you for your quick reply! I look forward to watching your new video!

Hi Sam, My husband and I just watched Bryan's video(diyadventurelife) on ARB/23 ZERO awning room that you did for him. We are looking to purchase a Hiker Extreme Offroad trailer and would be interested in hiring you to modify the awning room to fit around the door and fender. I would appreciate it if you would be so kind to respond if you would be interested in this job. Brianne. Have a blessed day. We love your videos. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

Thank you for taking the time to watch the video and reach out. Yes we can help you with that. If you could please email us at [e-mail] we can discuss that mod with you further.

[@Breyes61]

@adventuresofthememorymakers thank you I will email. How does it work, do we purchase the room from you or do we send it to you? Best regards Brianne

[@houseofapes1308]

Can you customize for a FJ Cruiser?

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

@@houseofapes1308 are you thinking side door or rear door? Never done one, would be interesting.

[@houseofapes1308]

Sorry for the delay- side door-

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

@@houseofapes1308 the big issue on ypur FJ would be that there is not anything to attach it to like on the campers that we do. I guess you could use a series of magnets but that would not be bug tight like our shock cord system is. If I see an FJ in a parking lot I will try to check it out.

[@houseofapes1308]

Okay had to ask- you do suck a great job with the campers- Thank you-

[@houseofapes1308]

Any other customization video or that you can do to the ARB- that would work for the FJ?

Can I light wood inside this tent when it is fully enclosed by the mosquito net?

@@oldstory-sz4qc light wood, as in start a fire?

[@oldstory-sz4qc]

Yes, I meant start a fire.

[@adventuresofthememorymakers]

@@oldstory-sz4qc there is no way I can recommend starting a fire in a tent room made of nylon material. The chance of a stray spark getting to the floor or walls is too great to risk.
