*THE RTT Owners Thread (With BS)*

This is true, i was really referring to the bottom mounting bars. Should have been more specific

Well mofo you didn't have it posted in your sig and i aint hunting that link down haha i've seen your build just being lazy lol

 

Not sure on the dimenson claim. I would confidently order from other companies for the main components. Maybe Bobby can chime in on that though. .

Ill compare my old one eventually and then to CVT this summer. The mattresses swapped perfectly though. So the base is the same between the two I had.

 

So lazy...

 

I can see how that'd be a pain.. Just taking good care of my stuff so it doesn't break.

 

I'm still waiting for info on the one I found

 

Pretty sure as long as you weren't an idiot and took some basic measurements you could find the parts needed. You also have to do something crazy to damage the tent. My old one was ran over and was fine. Fabric is easy to patch. You can buy zippers for cheap too.

Id get it even if the company was unknown

 

Yes. If you want to, Google "Camping Labs Tents" and select the images. Compare as needed.

If you needed to buy mounting rails, Tepui or CVT should work. You definitely want to check the dimension but the rails are extrusions and pretty much all use the same mounting hardware and even if it didn't line up exactly, you can drill

You won't be able to change the orientation of the rails unless you seal the old holes.

 

I have the largest Camping Labs RTT and I *think* it is essentially identical to the old ARB tent so dimensions for mounting and such should be the same. It is a great tent. Let me know if anyone wants any dimensions off it...

 

My CVT Mt.Hood is effing bulletproof! The US Government actually considers it a mobile fall-out shelter. It's buff as shit.

 

If the RTT is in good condition you can always find materials that will work for mounting rails. A good auto upholstery place can repair or replace zippers and patch holes, or even make a new rainfly. That RTT could be a good buy for someone who wants one but afford a new one.

I didn't use my mounting rails, because I had designed a custom rake that would support the would base. I plugged the holes and made new ones where I needed them.

 

I don't think I'm going to get it so far it has been 6 hrs and no reply.

 

Dudes an asshole. If its too good to be true it is.

 

Or my email went to spam

 

Here's a bird's-eye view of myself and another member on a camp trip this past weekend. The good flat camp spots were taken so we parked in this dried up wash. Mine is the green Kukenam with the ARB awning, and his is the CVT. Slept like a baby that night...

 

Thats a sweet pic. Climb a tree for that?

 

Eroded cliff wall.

 

Got my lights in.

 

Those lights look pretty damn nice!
