*THE RTT Owners Thread (With BS)*

Got it! Thank you

 

I do, and I love them. Handy as F, and they match the tent. My OCD says it's worth the $$.

 

I was going to pay for them right now....
$27 for shipping. There is no way in hell two canvas bags cost that much to ship 5 hours away.

 

That's dumb. I don't remember paying anything for shipping. Hit up @Box Rocket about them. I believe he can get you 10% off on everything, not just the tents.

 

Thanks.
I PMed him. Lowest I’ve seen is $90 total shipped for the individual style.

 

do you have a link to that bed rack? I couldn't find it on the cbi website

 

Where or what is that waterfall called at Zion? I'll be there in Sept, wouldn't mind checking it out!

 

Toquerville Falls

 

They don't have it on their website under the 95-04 Tacoma tab yet, but if you call in they can make you one! They designed it to clamp to the bed, so I didn't have to drill any holes. And that sucker is secure!

It's called Toquerville Falls, and if you're coming in from the Interstate 15 side you'll drive right through Toquerville. Super easy to find, and not a bad spot at all for free camping! They're worth checking out, for sure.

 

I like free camping!

 

You'll love Utah and Western Colorado then...

 

anyone have pics of how they mounted their RTT to their prinsu? I have one coming and hear different stories on how they mounted. Some needed a special bracket and some just bolted it right up.

 

Which tent did you get? Seems there are a few variations of mounting style based on brand.

 

It’s a Tepui kukenam

 

Should just bolt up. My buddy mounts his to his Prinsu. It'll be easier to mount it to the crossbars then lift the tent/crossbars onto the rack

 

Should just be able to put one bolt on either side of a crossbar and ratchet the spreader bar down. It'll be tight, but should do the trick.

 

Definitely this.

 

thanks guys, i have heard about bolting it to the crossbar then lifting it in is much easier than attempting to do it while on top of the vehicle.

 

I’ve given up on my CVT Shasta zipper. Must of been sand at the beach that claimed the troublesome of it. Have ratchet straps on each end of it (plus the 2 Velcro ones besides the ladder).

Gonna give ya these a try

Just a friendly piece of advice, if it's not raining, and it's breezy when you go to bed, remove your rainfly altogether, and ratchet strap the overhanging side of your RTT down to the tire or bumper/sliders.

It was breezy when I went to bed on a trip out to JTNP, but woke up around 11p with 60mph gusts and sustained 30mph winds. It bent 4 of my tension rods, and was picking up the overhang, and slamming it down. If I had not been sleeping with my head towards the ladder, it would have folded up on me.
