 Awning Heads Up!!!
Late 1998 Safari's, including my 25C, built as 1999 model year units used a unique A&E awning with the arms attached at the bottom of the coach on the trim piece. The bracket that attaches the main awning support arm, called the foot support, is not strong and prone to distort and break in a moderate to heavy rain or other stress. These were made especially for Airstream for only 3 months. My supports ripped clean off of the coach in a very light rain with no water pooling on the awning while 1200 miles from home.
IMPORTANTLY, these brackets are no longer made by A&E and not stocked by Airstream. There are none generally known in the US. Presently, I am working with A&E for a replacement awning. I will post the results of my negotiations with them when done.
