Question:

Hi, I have a 2022 JAYCO SLX7 195RB, it has a 10 awning which I find is a little small, can this 10 awning be replaced with a 13 awning? thanks.

It certainly is possible to replace your 10' awning with a 13' awning. Provided you have adequate space on the side of your camper to be able to place the support arms at 13'.

Now I am not sure exactly what brand of awning you have on your 2022 JAYCO SLX7 195RB. We carry the Solera (Lippert) brand awnings here at etrailer. The Solera awnings are fairly common on many brands/models of camper. If you have a solera awning, you could have the current support arms relocated. You would just need to purchase a new roller/fabric, and a section of awning rail.

For example the Replacement Roller and Fabric Kit # LCV000211460 and an Solera Awning Rail Extrusion # LC715217 (sold as 8' section) would be all you need to upgrade an existing Solera power awning to a 13', re-using the existing support arms.

If you have a different brand of awning, things may work a bit differently. You could purchase a complete 13' awning kit # LCV000334926-362243. This is a full awning kit so you get everything all at once.

I have linked our awning review and installation video below if you want to take a look.
