Nope. The original design loses the rack (and all that weight) and is a direct mount. These types of racks are very simple. But...they are not wide enough. To mount to these racks:

1) Lay our 53.75" crossbars onto the the Prinsu/Victory/Southern Rach
2) Bolt our crossbars with L brackets to the Prinsu crossbars (as shown above x6)
3) Place tent on top of our crossbars and bolt on our end brackets (x6)

Voila.

Been following your journey from the start, pretty impressive!

Sure would solve my issues of not fitting into parking garages with my CVT, plus i like the hard shell top as I've ripped my cover on trees, pretty much unavoidable in the PNW if your headed off road in the Cascades.

Nice job!

An industry first is coming in early 2021. Following the First Edition Production we will open up pre-orders.
Side note - we just reached out to the admins to become a sponsor. After all...the tent was born here.

Love the colors you choose for the rtt Chad. I hate the black colors some vendors choose. Too much heat retention if you're out in the desert or just in a hot area. Keep up the good work sir.

KICKSTARTER is COMPLETE! And...the First Edition production run is sold out +.



A big hearty thank you to all who have chosen the Terrapod RTTx for your Roof top tent. We appreciate the opportunity to build you a top quality sleep system for your adventures. If you are a First Edition customer, look for an email update in the coming days. It will contain next steps and what is to come.



Thank you! If you missed out, the next production run is coming very soon (Jan 2021).
