Awning drip rail needed

[Steve Townley]

Our 79 Apache (Class C) is nearly done but I have a problem.  It uses an awning drip rail on both sides front to back.  Unfortunately the original "craftsmen" cut one too much and the junction at the hip (where the awning drip rail and awning extension meet at the hip of the roof line...hope that is clear!).  Anyway to fix this I need 5 feet of drip rail that doesn't seem to be listed in any of the web sites I've found.  Note this drip rail has a 90 degree bend with flat horizontal and vertical sides each 1.5" long.  The vertical piece has the awning tube at the lowest point.  I was unsuccessful in attaching a side view but will keep trying.  Any help in finding this item would be sincerely appreciated.  Many thanks!!  Steve

Steve,

Try go-rv.com   They had pretty much everything I needed for my restoration.

Unfortunately I wasn't able to find what I need there.  I'll have a photo of the drip rail I need after lunch.  Any leads would be sincerely appreciated!!  Thanks!  Steve

Thanks for the suggestion but they didn't have the correct extrusion.  In my searches I have looked under both "awning" and "drip" rails but no luck under either name.  Good  thoughts.  Please keep those suggestions coming!!  Have a great weekend...we are finally getting some sun and temps above 35 degrees.  Trout season has opened so we are getting anxious!!  Best, Steve

They have a great selection John but nothing that works.  One of the above links is close but we have a flat verticle  and thin flat horizontal (goes in under the aluminum roof skin).  Thanks for the suggestions.  We really appreciate the help.  If you come up with anything else please don't hesitate to drop a note.  Regards, Steve

Just a quick update.  The gentleman we purchased the new siding from (who also has drip rail and awning rail) says he has never seen this style in the 26 years he has been in business.  We have admitted defeat and are resorting to welding up a new piece.  Many thanks to all for their help.  Steve
