*THE RTT Owners Thread (With BS)*

The new tents coming have the all the updates.

 

It’s Green. But yes! Last time I checked there are color options. Let me find out what colors are available.

 

If you want a custom color, I can get you in contact with a guy selling his warrior that has the blue material. (This is a 1 of 1)

otherwise a custom color can be ordered but you wouldn’t get your item till August.

 

Just ordered a new Grunt rtt from Desert Armor with their February sale! Was $125 off, free shipping, and free annex. Super excited to have more room for the family now.

 

@uploadadventure Is the sleeping footprint of the grunt actually 59x94 and do you have any interior pictures? All I'm seeing is exterior on the DA website

 

Should be right around that length. I haven’t formally measured the length of bed. I’m asking a customer to get me a proper measurement if we don’t hear from the manufacturer first.

Customer did just tell me it’s a bit larger than a queen because queen sheets do not fit.

 

@uploadadventure Does the Annex for the Tank/Warrior have a floor panel, removeable or otherwise?

 

The main annex available now is a larger annex and does not have a floor.

The next shipment coming in has the smaller annex option which does have a floor.

 

Putting the CVT Mt. Shasta to good use in the Granite Mountains of the Mojave Preserve. Couldn't have been a more pleasant evening.

Just ordered the Superlite

 

dont plan on camping until 2022 huh?

 

I know right, the lead time is bad. Site says August. So i guess i’ll be in my ground tent this summer. The Superlite felt like my only option for an RTT since i’ll be mounting it to my fiberglass shell.

 

Think many people are running RTTs on fiber glass shells. I was thinking of getting the super lite also before for my shell. But I wasn’t sure if all the bedding stuff would fit. And the wait was something I didn’t want to do.

 

right.

DA get their Ultra Lights in March

and it’s a hard shell. And weighs a few pounds more. But it’s a hard shell.

 

Warrior XL ordered. Thanks for all the help @uploadadventure

Will I need longer bolts to go around my max modular cross bars?

 

i mean the gfc is a “hardshell” i know.. but its 80 lb for $1300 and DA is 107lb for $2500

 

I've picked up a used Tepui Kukenam 3. I found a new travel cover on ebay and some cbi overland bars from Truck Brigade. My question is..... The standard installation has a bracket with 2 bolts that wraps around the bar. I could run a single bolt straight through slots in the cbi bars, with a washer, and tighten the nut. This would mean the tent is connected with only 4 bolts instead of a typical installation with brackets and 8 bolts. Anybody running this setup? Or should i just run the brackets around the bars and use 8 bolts.

 

Thanks man. My cbi bars only have one slit so i'd only be able to run one bolt each. I might just go ahead and run the brackets.

 

4 bolts will work fine. That is how I did it until I changed my rack to tubular bed bars. Anything that happens to put enough force to break one of those bolts is going to fuck up so much other shit on your truck that the RTT will be the least of your worries.
