Thanks a bunch. I ended up replacing all the fittings on the supply lines with 1/4" NPT fittings. After buying the pex crimps and crimping tool. It was an easy swap.

I ordered anti-fap arms and porch sidewall awning directly from Awnlux. Ordering info below.
I was able to install the anti-flap arms at my home but have not been able to fully install the porch sidewall awning yet because I had nowhere to anchor the guidelines.
It took me about two hours for the initial set up. Some drilling to install of awning brackets required. I have a camping trip to Yosemite on Saturday to get a real-world test of the new products.
The anti-flap arms made a world of difference; the entire awning became heavy and strong after I installed. Overall, I was very pleased with the quality and strength of the product. As you know right now the awning feels a little flimsy and lightweight. After installing the anti-flap arms the awning became very solid. It feels like I can confidently leave my awning out for multiple day camping trips. It's still important to lower one leg when it rains so that the water flows off the awning.
Pros
