I just built the same lean to on my 40' shed with 10' roof.
I used the existing header from the shed and screwed hangers to it through the tin. The existing header (2X10) was only nailed to the 6X6 posts - I added one 1/2 carriage head bolt at each post (5) to keep the header from pulling away from the posts and added a lag screw. The wall I added I used 6X6 posts on 10' centers and a double header (2x8) with both lag screws and a single 1/2" carriage head bolt to hold it to the posts. I ran 2X6 20" apart and used hangers on both of the double headers to hold in place (all screwed). I then screwed 2X4 nailers on 20" centers to the 2X6s and then screwed the tin to the nailers. The span is 12' wide and I have a 2' 6" drop over the 12' span - it appears to match the slope of the existing shed.
The dimensions are similar to the existing shed only everything I did was screwed and the original construction is all nailed (except the tin).

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
