Description
Turn every stop into basecamp. The Sterling Adventure Co. 180° Free Standing Awning is built for 4Runner owners who chase trails, ski slopes, and summits — not parking lots. Whether you're posted up at a remote desert camp, trailhead barbecue, or loading up the dirt bikes for a weekend trip, this awning turns your rig into home base with 74 sq. ft. of instant coverage.
Perfectly designed for Toyota 4Runner roof racks—from Sherpa and Prinsu to OEM and aftermarket options—this free-standing 180-degree awning sets up fast, provides full access to your rear hatch, and handles the wind with ease. It’s the ultimate shade solution for 4th gen, 5th gen, and 6th gen 4Runner builds that go everywhere.
Key Features
- Universal Roof Rack Fitment – Works seamlessly with Prinsu, Sherpa, Gobi, Front Runner, and most standard roof rack crossbars.
- Rear Hatch Clearance – Unlike traditional awnings, the 180° swing-out design allows full use of your 4Runner’s liftgate or swing-out tire carrier.
- Built-In LED Strip Lighting – Add warmth and visibility to your camp, no need to fumble with lanterns or extra gear.
- Integrated Support Legs – Deploy when needed for high winds or soft ground; stow them away for a cleaner setup.
- Perfect for Overlanding, Skiing, Dirtbiking, and Off-Road Camping – Shade to cook under at basecamp, shelter from rain on ski days, and space to gear up trailside.
- Quick Deploy Setup – Just unzip, swing open, and you’re in the shade in seconds.
- Compact Storage – Includes a built-in storage bag and mounts easily on your roof rack without adding bulk.
- Built to Last – Lightweight extruded aluminum frame and durable rip-stop polyester canopy rated for UV and rain.
