No. Pole assemblies are all gone, just the attaching kits left.

Some folks are using this style from Home Depot. Wooster 6 ft.-12 ft. Sherlock Extension Pole-00R0560000 - The Home Depot

They come in different lengths also.

These are my electrical conduit poles I got from OC back in 2013. They have worked perfectly! I just primed and painted them and put them on. Easy and one of the best and most used mods I have on the rig. I went camping last weekend, waterfront lakeside site. I set them up upon arrival and didn't worry about the awning at all and it was windy and rainy. Everyone else pulled their awnings in. Thanks OC!!

OC- "if" you were to box up the set, I could provide the shipping.

Where do you guys store them while in transit?

Has anyone installed an aftermarket wind sensor for an automatic awning?

I have the attaching kits ready to ship, as for storing poles, that's what the kits are for, holding the poles to the awning in the "hold down" position and also holding them in the stow/traveling position.

Trying to help folks get more use out of their awnings.

Don't know if I can get more plasma cut, Butler Built is extremely busy and cutting 50 upper brackets and 50 stow brackets shuts their plasma cutter off seat production for a minimum of an hour.

Still have kits left. Get them before the season gets into full swing and you awning goes over the top of the camper.
