Anyone mount a Fiamma F35 awning to a Front Runner rack?

[outdoornate65]

I have a Fiamma F35 awning that I have mounted to my 2008 4-Runner. Currently it has mounting brackets that afix to the Thule crossbars.

Planning on ditching the Thule crossbars and mounting-up a Front Runner rack that will support a RTT in the near future. I see that Front Runner sells a mounting bracket but wonder if it will fit the Fiamma. (I left a VM with the folks at Front Runner but have not heard back from them)

Thanks,

Nate

Hey Nate,

Just wanted to touch base with you. Sent you a response via email on fitting your Fiamma F35. You had left an inquiry via our website did you receive it? Let me know so I can see if something went wrong on our end. Here's the response that was sent to you...

"The Fiamma F35 mounts would not work with out Front Runner Roof Rack without some slight modification. The side rails have a M8 T-Slot you can mount from but you would need to fabricate some sort of simple bracket that would relocate the mounts of your awning to mount to the top t-slots of your rack."
