TEPUI Roof Top Tents and Gear

@Box Rocket any idea when more Ayers will be in?

 

Mid to late May is when we expect to have the Ayers back in stock.

 

Are there any black covers for the Ayers yet?

 

Hi All. I am a Subaru Forster owner who has a question about Tepui tents. Since this thread seems to be one of the largest resources on these tents, I thought I would ask my question here.

I have a family of four and would like to get an XL ruggedized Autana or Kukenam, but they both are over 200 lbs. Currently, my rack set up consists of two Thule square bars that have dynamic load ratings of 165 lbs. I have researched other racks and bars and they all seem to be around 165 lbs as well. How are you all mounting the heavier tents to your rig when it seems most stardard racks/bars are specified to have a lower dynamic load ratings less than the weight of these tents?

For what it is worth, I have also considered getting an Autana XL Sky Tan or a Baja XL. Both are at or less than 150 lbs, but I don't like the color of the former and want something a bit more durable than the latter.

Thanks!

 

Any recommendations from Tepui on bed racks? New to the tent game, looking at Tepui tents but need a bed rack first.

or anything that goes to the bed bolts and frame. IMO if it just sits on the bedrails, it'll do more harm long term

 

Relentless Fabrication is a great company with top notch quality bars for your tent. I have two bars and my Kukenam Sky on top. Love it!

 

Will a tepui tent work on my factory roof rack on my 2013 dblcb??

 

Here is mine, test fit it and drove to work one day then decided against it (other people have)

ended up getting a Prinsu

 

Did it hold the weight? And do you have any pics of it open?

 

I never opened it on that rack I was worried weight especially with going down rough roads

 

Damn, I can't find anyone who has one with the oem rack

 

If you run across any pics or info of anyone running that set up let me know

post #4 @Mademan925 did it, but he used inno cross bars
I personally don't recommend it using just the oem rack

 

do you have the oem rack already?

 

In the market for a Kukenam Ruggedized-
Who's the tacomaworld preferred vendor?

 

@Box Rocket works for Tepui, I believe members get a 10% discount

 

I can hook you up. Let me know what you need.

 

Oem rack is shit. It's meant to hold like 100 lbs. most tents alone weigh over that and with people in them not gonna work well. Don't be cheap

 

Does the mosquito netting listed on Tepui website fit the 6' awning?
