    Does anyone own a 23Zero Bondi? Havent seen a lot of people with these yet. I like the size without the ladder overhand or annex.

    Frontrunner makes a quick release RTT attachment that would be helpful for a pully system. There are some good youtube videos on how to build one

    People that are adding a memory foam topper to your RTT mattress what are you using? Due to the odd size I'm not having much luck. Thinking a 1 inch thick would do the trick.

    Edit I have a CVT Mt Shasta so I believe it's 56 x 96 size.

    Did you have any issues with the mounting? I'm about to order the high country and have similar bed crossbars (KBVoodoo). Seems pretty straightforward, but haven't been able to find many pics of FSR tents mounted this way.

    No problem! I was all set to pull the trigger on one of those fancy and expensive hoists, then a couple beers asked me "Why are you overthinking this, bro?" :devil:

    I will tonight...still on my truck from the weekend.

    Dynatrac ProRock 60 Rear Axle, that is important enough.
    I would assume that the top bolts are into joists in the roof correct? How did you raise it up into that position?

    You would assume correctly...not my first rodeo :thumbsup: I used cam buckle straps with 1K# working load, as they're easier to control, and the tent only weighs 116#. Simply pull the respective strap corner by corner a few inches off the truck, move the truck, then finish raising the same way. I thought I would have to help by pushing each corner up, but there was plenty of leverage. I've loaded and unloaded a couple times now, and it's cake...best part is that no help is needed.

    Sweet! That is what I assumed, but glad that works. Seems like a pretty simple setup!

    My first design was similar but resembled the Queen Anne's Revenge at full sail :rofl:
