Hey Matt, its a pretty long drive but here's one:
http://portland.en.craigslist.org/mlt/pts/4725566896.html

 

I'm hoping to find a black flat top canopy for a short bed. Hopefully something that can hold the weight of a RTT.

 

Make sure it has the reenforced roof on it and still go as light as possible. Im (hopefully) picking up a Tepui Autana this weekend. 130lbs is my limit for a rtt, after you add me and someone else plus gear. If I were to do it again I would get a softtopper and a rack that can fit over that with a rtt on that

 

My SnugTop XTR has had no issues with my CVT Rainier RTT, even with 4gal of fuel and 2gal of water/storage on either side. I use 4 load bars to distribute the weight. I feel like people have a misconception of RTT's and canopies.

 

Thought you had a SnugTop rebel? Congrats on joining the XTR Club Im probably going to mount mine straight to the bars without any cross bars, at least I was told I can.

 

Sorry, I meant to say Xtra Vision.

I believe you can if you mount the tracks for the RTT on width wise vs the length wise like most people do. That would allow you to mount it to the rails that are on your canopy.

 

You might want to watch this in case he decides to ship it.

Yeah.. Valid points. I mainly want the canopy for my dog, and I think it'd look pretty cool. I'm not sure which direction to go to be honest. I was leaning towards a soft topper at first, but I don't want any issues

 

I too struggled with the soft-topper vs canopy debate. Ultimately went with ARE X-Series; better windows, better security, add the yak tracks and yer good to go for RTT. I mounted a frontrunner slimline tray to pull double duty for cargo or RTT. Plus lifetime warranty (when you buy new).

Here is the response I got from ARE when asked about weight capacity:

The weight rating on our Yakima Rack when driving the vehicle is set at 150 lbs due to various dynamic forces such as sudden stops, potholes, sharp turns etc. Additionally, you should always consult the vehicle manufacturer for center of gravity ratings. When the vehicle is not moving (for camping) the roof and rack can actually carry well over that amount. While this is not something we guarantee under warranty, our caps have been tested to hold well over 800 lbs when stationary.

Thanks,

Picked these up. Got em for $80. Great find man!

 

wish i was closer or i would buy them. Im in Central Or and i need seat covers.

 

I was looking at Wet Okole's and was just thinking about how if i spent that much on seat covers, i would be more scared to ruin the seat covers than the actual seats. Ill probably pick up some CoverKings for the rear seats, those are reasonably priced.

 

I used to have them on my 06. I didn't really care for them, especially in the heat. I'd love some okoles though

 

Hope with my new 160lb RTT nothing happens...

 

I remember you bringing that up before:

I found the guys thread here:
http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/2nd-gen-builds/238097-my-build-leading-up-my-road-trip-alaska.html

He doesn't describe what he had up there or what he was doing but there are a few variables that need to be considered:
Leer vs SnugTop canopy
long bed vs short bed (more window=less structure)
load weight (265/75/17 spare, 2x 5 gal metal cans, rack, etc)
mounting locations (too few and too close together, in my opinion)
What activity actually made it break.

 

Totally understandable. I paid less but I would still hate to break mine.

He did have a bit more up there in the pictures of the trip but I couldn't tell what it was. The other aspect that I wanted to point out is that all his weight was on the left side of the rack (the side that cracked).

 

Also the bars on my XTR are in line with the truck and the RTT will be secured straight to those, no cross bars like all other canopies (the contact points with the bars to the shell are closer in the middle of the shell than that of the leer pictured above)

 

The rims on this truck look familiar. TW member maybe?
