    Step 1 Drive up random road in National Forest.
    Step 2 pop up the tent and set up camp

    I had some small modifications done to my CBI bumper by a local shop. They added on a hitch to the swing arm so I can mount a bike rack up there for better clearance and to give give easier access to the bed.

    Next step - get a bike rack

    What brand of tonneau cover are you using in conjunction with your CBI bed rack?

    Got some goodies from Ok4WD on my truck...
    Alucab explorer canopy and tent! Having access to the bed from the sides is a game changer especially with the tire swing out on the rear.

    Still waiting for the riser cross bar mounts so I can push the tent forward another foot but had a good trial run this weekend with it!
