Carefree of Colorado OEM Replacement Part Made in USA R001576 Travel'R Awning Shock Mounting Hardware Kit

Keep your Carefree Travel'R awning operating safely with the correct OEM shock mounting hardware. This kit supplies the exact rivets and nylon spacers needed to properly secure the awning arm shocks -- a small but critical component that prevents arm flutter and maintains proper tension during travel and deployment.

The Right Hardware for Your Travel'R Awning Shocks

When awning arm shocks loosen, break free, or need replacement after a repair, having the correct mounting hardware on hand makes all the difference. Generic rivets and spacers rarely match the OEM dimensions, leaving slop in the shock mount that causes premature wear or arm misalignment. The Carefree R001576 kit ships with factory-spec components sized specifically for Travel'R awning arm assemblies.

This is a direct Carefree of Colorado replacement part -- the same hardware used on the original assembly. Two metal rivets of different lengths handle the primary fastening, while four black nylon spacers maintain proper standoff distance and prevent metal-on-metal contact at the shock pivot points.

Two-Rivet Set

Includes one 2-1/4" rivet and one 1-3/4" rivet -- two different lengths to match the specific mounting positions on the Travel'R shock assembly.

Nylon Spacers Included

Four black nylon spacers provide the correct standoff and cushioning at shock pivot points, reducing vibration wear on the arm hardware.

OEM Carefree Part

Part number R001576 is a genuine Carefree of Colorado replacement, ensuring correct fit and finish for Travel'R awning arm assemblies.

Made in the USA

Manufactured domestically under Carefree of Colorado's quality standards and backed by a limited 1-year manufacturer warranty.

Why Shock Mounting Hardware Matters

The shocks on a Travel'R awning arm absorb the stress of opening, closing, and wind loading. The rivets and spacers that anchor those shocks to the arm see constant tension and vibration. Over time -- especially in high-mileage rigs or after any arm repair -- these small fasteners can wear, loosen, or corrode. Replacing them with correctly sized OEM hardware restores the tight, rattle-free fit the awning was designed with.

Correct Lengths Matter: The two rivets in this kit are intentionally different lengths (2-1/4" and 1-3/4"). Using the wrong rivet in the wrong position can result in improper shock seating. Reference your awning arm assembly diagram to confirm which rivet installs at each location before driving the fasteners.

Common Repair Scenarios

  • Awning arm shock has separated from its mount and the original rivets are damaged or missing
  • Shock replacement after awning arm damage -- new shocks often require fresh mounting hardware
  • Preventive replacement during seasonal service when rivets show corrosion or wear
  • Rattle or play at the shock pivot that tightening alone cannot resolve
Fitment Note: This hardware kit is designed for the Carefree Travel'R awning arm shock mounting points. Verify your awning model is a Travel'R series before ordering. Carefree produces several awning families (SunBlocker, Fiesta, Eclipse, etc.) with different hardware specifications.
Installation Tip: A standard pop-rivet tool is typically used to set these rivets. Ensure you have the correct mandrel diameter for the rivet body before starting the job. Inspect the surrounding arm material for cracks or elongated holes before installing new hardware -- damaged arm material should be addressed before re-riveting.
