Arrow Carefree awning parts needed

Does anyone have any parts lying around from an older carefree awning system? We have a 1980 Airstream that came with the carefree.

Specifically, I just need some of the end caps on the "roller tube" or whatever its called. The caps are plastic with 4 knobby protrusions on them.

Also, we could use the original bolts that clamp the sliding arm-modules when they're up. They're bolts with a plastic part making them easier to turn.

Maybe the bolts at the bottom that act as hinges as well...

Hopefully those descriptions make sense heh... Otherwise I can post some pics.

Thanks!
John

They may carry the knobs you refer to, if not try McMaster-Carr

If this link doesn't get you to the Knob section just type Threaded Knob on their main page search box.

I am also looking for two #26-2575 Awning Ends Cap for a Carefree Awning for years 1972-85. I have searched the internet and have come up with nothing. Out of Doors Mart does not have them in stock. Do you have any suggestions as to where I can get two of these end caps? Hopefully you can help me. Thanks!
