Keep your Carefree Latitude awning looking sharp and functioning reliably with this direct OEM replacement idler cover. Designed specifically for the left-hand (idler) end of the Latitude awning arm, this cover shields the internal idler wheel assembly from UV exposure, rain, road grime, and debris that can cause premature wear and binding.
The idler cover is the outer housing at the non-motor end of your Carefree Latitude awning. Over time, UV rays crack the plastic, road vibration loosens mounting tabs, and the cover can break or go missing entirely -- leaving the idler wheel exposed. This Carefree factory-matched replacement restores the clean, finished look and provides the mechanical protection the idler assembly needs.
This is the left-side cover only (Part R001785-006). Orientation is determined while standing outside the RV facing the awning. If your Latitude awning has a different cover style, or if you need the right-side (motor end) cover, confirm your awning model before ordering. Mounting screws are included.
Engineered by Carefree of Colorado to snap into the exact mounting points of the Latitude awning arm -- no drilling or modification required.
Injection-molded housing resists cracking and fading under prolonged sun exposure, matching the factory appearance of original Latitude covers.
Encloses and protects the idler wheel from moisture, insects, and road debris that cause binding and uneven awning extension.
Comes with the mounting hardware needed for installation -- no hunting for specialty fasteners.
Stand outside your RV and face the side of the rig where the awning is mounted. The left side is on your left as you face the coach. On a Latitude awning, the left side is typically the idler (non-motorized) end -- this is the cover this part replaces. If the motor and control box are on the left end of your awning as you face it, you need the right-side cover instead. Check the label on your awning arm or your awning's build tag to confirm before ordering.
