Our 2019 Toyota 4 Runner SR5 joined our family in September 2020 as a tow vehicle for our 2018 forest River R-Pod 180. First thing we did was to change the street rubber for All Terrain tires. Next was to build a drop hitch for the trailer. Soon we ordered frig/freezer, a roof rack, roof top tent and awning. I have changed exterior and interior lighting to led. We try to take her out at lease twice a month seeking adventure and new sun sets and sun rises.

Great setup! How well does the 270 awning work with the tailgate?

Looks like a 180, lifted up by contact with the tailgate. My OVS 180 did that before I moved it to the drivers side.

Good eye, I thought it was going over!
For your 180, shouldn’t it be the same driver or passenger side? What changed?
Steward I
The hinges are set different. One is further from the bracket so the arms fold over the other arms. By changing sides, the rear hinge was an extra inch and a half out from the side, which made a big difference with the tailgate.

I thought I replied to your question, but I must not of posted it.
Your question on the 270 is right on target. I am very disappointed! I have tried moving it forward and raised it what the stealth rack would allow. I guess It would of been able to adjust higher with the taller rack. I am now using the 270 as a 180. If I don't leave the lift gate up I can use it as a 270.
It is a 270 awning!

Looks like a Shrockworks front.
