    Mine's pretty straight forward, i've got two long bolts that run on t-slots that meet on both sides of my bars and then ive got a flat piece of steel with two holes that i just line up and bolt up, "squishing" the tent to my bars if that makes sense.

    The baja rack has smaller diameter bars so you may need to buy shorter bolts so you aren't hitting your roof its also steel powder coated so it will scratch and rust.. So IMHO I would find something to cover rack while putting rtt on...then take it off before bolting

    I've been very happy with my TRD wheels. I love how they look on the truck. I haven't made a build thread, I haven't really done anything crazy with it. I have the Allpro bed rack with a Tepui Autanna Ruggidized tent.

    We didn't zip in the floor because of the mud. It was really wet and I got lazy. I didn't want to clean up that mess when I got home.

    Did you get the flat utility rack from Bajarack? Or a basket? I have the flat utility rack and my Tepui Autana mounts right up with the stock equipment. Same as Cham described above. It's pretty self explanatory when you get it all. If you have questions post em or PM and I'll go into more detail. Also true about the rack being powdercoated. I scraped mine up a little (honestly not bad, on and off probably 20 times and minor scraping) but now I use a piece of 2x4 to slide it into position, then remove it and lock the tent down.

    Thanks for the shout out. I'm always down to share the knowledge!

    Swung by Tepui today. Picked up a new travel cover. Said hello to the gang-haven't seen them in a while. Super busy shipping stuff and getting ready for the holidays.

    Who knew they had a warehouse that wasn't the showroom? It's off the beaten path, that's for sure. Riley had a good time too.

    Ahh, ok ya I don't know much about the baskets but I'd imagine it's pretty straightforward. Post pics when you get it! And damn that things gonna sit up high!
