No poles, no problem. The Nomadic 270 LT awning from Overland Vehicle Systems is a one-person solution that deploys quickly to provide 80 square feet and 270 degrees of protection from rain and sun. The system’s unique reinforced, oversized hinges and heavy-duty rafters let the awning operate without poles, but it includes two quick-lock pivoting poles if the breeze decides to pick up. 

Speaking of weather, you can feel safe from rain beneath the 600D ripstop poly-cotton canopy, which is heat-sealed to laugh off leaks. And when you really need to lock down your camp area, just secure the stakes with supplied paracord and raise the optional enclosure shelter to ride out the storm.  

Best of all, Overland Vehicle Systems designed the Nomadic 270 LT awning to break down in minutes and stow neatly in a 1,000 g PVC travel bag. Fits any vehicle with a roof rack.  

Features 

  • Fits any vehicle with a factory or aftermarket roof rack  
  • 80 sq ft and 270 degrees of coverage 
  • Reinforced, oversized hinges and heavy-duty rafters mean no poles are needed to set up. 
  • Two quick-lock aluminum poles secure site against feistier weather. 
  • Dark-gray, heat-sealed denier ripstop poly-cotton prevents leaks. 
  • Stakes, paracord, and enclosure shelter further protect against storms. 
  • Includes all hardware and heavy-duty zippered travel bag 
  • Warranty: 4-year limited

Putco (78000–78275): Hex Shield™ Series Mud Skins™

Putco (78000–78275): Hex Shield™ Series Mud Skins™

PUTCO’s new Hex Shield™ Series Mud Skins™ are custom fit and feature an all-new Hex Shield™ design that delivers superior protection from road debris, while adding a rugged design to your vehicle. Mud Skins™ feature a patented design that uses gravity and wind flow to unite fine droplets of water, forcing the water to drip from the bottom rather than aerosolizing, which creates a mist that makes lane changing and car passing difficult and dangerous. Mud Skins™ will not interfere with your preference for big tires and dirt roads, as they are designed to accommodate larger tires and withstand rugged terrain. They also come in your choice of a polished stainless steel, carbon black high-density polyethylene, or brushed stainless steel finish.

Mud Skins™ feature Gorillatuff® Splash Guards made of a nearly indestructible rubberized poly blend that is created from 95% recycled materials, all sourced from the USA. This extruded splash guard has undergone rigorous testing for UV damage and is backed by Putco’s extensive warranty program. Mud Skins™ also feature an Anti-Sail that provides extra weight to keep the Gorillatuff® Splash Guards in place while traveling down the road. Extra wind pressure can cause lift that creates a larger gap between the road surface and the bottom edge of the rubber flaps. By reducing the gap, the Hitch-Flap™ does a better job of protecting.

Mud Skins™ utilize an 18-gauge stainless steel mounting bracket to position the Gorillatuff® Splash Guards further back and provide more room for larger tires, while still offering protection and clearance to your truck. The mounting bracket features Putco’s new Hex Shield™ pattern that not only serves as a stylish accent to your vehicle’s look but also provides a strong mounting surface where the pattern becomes a versatile connection area for attaching to your vehicle. This makes installation quick because it easily attaches no matter the location of your vehicle’s mounting points. All components are fastened securely with rivets that ensure your mud flaps do not fall apart and add a smooth finish that bolt-on options cannot replicate.

Features:

  • Laser-cut, application-specific design
  • Gorillatuff™ Splash Guards made of rubberized poly blend
  • Hex Shield™ pattern offers extra protection
  • Anti-Sails keep Gorillatuff™ Splash Guards in place
  • All components are securely fastened with rivets
  • Mounting bracket has Hex Shield™ pattern for strong mounting surface
  • Offset mounting bracket allows more clearance & tire room
  • Includes (2) premium mud flaps
  • Quick & easy installation, no matter where brackets are located
  • Available finishes: polished, brushed, or carbon black polyethylene
