Recently purchased used LQ Trailer and need to replace the factory installed 10'A/E Awning. I had an A/E 2 step awning on my previous trailer which I loved. I understand the 2 step is discontinued. Would anyone have a lead on where I could purchase this complete? Someone has to have this in stock. We need 16' and the roof rail. Additonally, were we would attach the side arm mount towards the rear door would be an area over the wheel well. I have 60" clearance. How can I be certain I have enough room? I've check with some on line companies and have not had luck with them being able to measure needed arm height clearance for the arms that pull out. What I would love is to speak with a stocking dealer. Thanks in advance for any leads.

Campingworld.com has most of these awnings in stock or can be ordered and shipped within 3 to 5 days.The 2 step awning has not be discontinued as of 2 weeks ago when I was in there store. I had our arms replaced on our standard awning and they way trying to get me to upgrade to a 2 step or power awning, but I like the old style since we have so much wind around here. With wind the 2 step and power units are pretty much worthless.They quoted me a 17' power awning with all parts, hardware and completely installed for $1400.00.

I've had 2-steps awnings on my last 2 trailers and loved them. They have a knee-flex action which allow them to take more wind than the standard 8500 awning and have a feature that allows the awning to tilt at one end so rainwater runs off, then it rises back up. See info below from A&E awnings (if I can get it to attach):
Two Step Patio Awning
Fast and Easy Manual Awning
The name says it all: simply unlock and lower, and enjoyment of the outdoors with the A&E Systems Two-Step awning begins. It is a manual awning, yet it has many of the same features as our prestigious WeatherPro Power awning.
Two-Step’s patented Knee Action Design™ allows it to flex in moderate wind to prevent damage. In addition, its unique spring arm mechanism automatically releases accumulating rainwater. This prevents the fabric from stretching and prevents damage to the roller tube.
