I see that this could be a useful step into a RTT on the Mars expedition rack, if the cross bar can support it.

@Mars Adventure Gear what’s the weight support limit for this? Thanks!

We also have a bed crossbar kit, that includes the bars and in stock, that does the same thing. IF you mount the brackets vertically, you can raise or lower the bars, that might buy you the extra inch you're looking for if you want to close the bed cover.

This is awesome! Now if we can find an RTT that fits w/ the vault cover closed. Maybe OP can give this a shot w/ the air cruiser tent he has on hand?!?

So you know the weight rating for the bars and the CT rails?

If I compare this to the cybertent l-track mounts, those have more than 2 screw points into the l-track, so I’m guessing that the more screw points into the track, the more weight your crossbar/rack can support.

Can someone investigate that?

@jackychu I greatly appreciate you and this thread, I was going the same route as you and that was my backup plan should I lose too much efficiency as an RTT with the Mars rack.

Not Mars rack issue. All RTT which mount on top of any vehicle has the same issue.

I tried to remove Air Cruiser's frame and mattress. Just keep the tent. Then it should be very thin. But it is too much work. I am still considering how to make it.

Lower bars is not the option for me. If lower than L-track. Then My bins cannot place under the tent.

Now I see them, sorry for bad advice! Can you move the tent to the back of the bed so then you could still close the cover against the tent to lock in your bins and whatever else you’ve got?

I already tried. This position is the best so far. The appliqué also needs remove before tent setup. Just like Cyber Tent ?

The issue is this side panel too thick. Because the mattress is much thicker than Cyber Tent mattress. And it folds up. Become double thick.

Remove tent from its original frame? And store mattress in other place or use inflatable mattress? Possible. But it is too much works.

Will be keeping an eye on your progress. I’ve yet to pull the trigger on an external rack because of the range impact and was hoping to see someone find an alternative to the cyber tent similar to this
