How to Dismount Roof Top Tent by Yourself - The Cheap, Quick, Simple Way!

[@47samuraironin]

2 min of my whole life just flashed in front me trying this. The winch technique is safer with a controlled descent. Thanks. So many smart people out there like yourself 👍

[@natenesstv6685]

Haha! I agree! The winch technique is definitely preferred. Thanks for watching!

[@rockindoc1975]

My man! This perfect for what I was looking for. Straight and to the point, simple and easy.

[@natenesstv6685]

Thanks for watching and your comment!

THANK YOU for storing the tent and getting the Tahoe in the garage ;)

[@natenesstv6685]

You bet!

[@otiswinters3674]

Brilliant! Your method of unloading has convinced me to go ahead and buy a soft-shell CVT tent! Thanks for your video and way to go NatenessTV!

[@natenesstv6685]

So glad you found it helpful! Let me know how you like your CVT! I also made a video for loading it if that help, I’ll see if I can share the link to that video. HOW TO Install Roof Top Tent (Solo DIY) kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZPShJqKiZ2ta5Y

You're a brave man bro! I'm trying to remove the same tent from a brand new Defender.

[@natenesstv6685]

Yea a $7,000 Chevy Tahoe is a lot more forgiving than a new Defender! Haha! Hope it went well for you!

Thanks. Ive been thinking of something similar but off the side of the car - then it protects the car side as it comes down (my tail gate glazing is angled and the roof bars too far forward to take off the back)

[@tennisfitapp]

Awesome man! Thanks! I have Overzone tent probably around 80-100 kilos - will this work also for this weight? 😅

[@natenesstv6685]

That’s a heavy tent I think that’s around 200+ lbs, might consider reinforcing or doubling up on the boards. If I was gonna try it I would get a couple more 2x4s and screw them on edge to the back of the runners, otherwise you might get a lot of board flex when the tent is in the center when sliding. Does that make sense? Where you from?

[@dadaking]

Genius!

[@natenesstv6685]

Thanks for watching!

[@rhaglund1]

Yay! You get to park in your garage again!

[@natenesstv6685]

Yes! I am very happy about that!

[@bearlycamping]

Awesome video! Just curious how much does your tent weigh?

[@jedisith19]

👍🏻. I would interested to know how you mount the tent on your vehicle. We have been considering a RTT and one the unknowns is mounting and removing it

[@natenesstv6685]

Ah good question! I need to make a video showing that. Stay tuned...

[@natenesstv6685]

Hi Steve - I just made a video showing my method for getting my RTT on my vehicle. Check it out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZPShJqKiZ2ta5Y

[@justpaintitright6442]

[@peten6445]

[@natenesstv6685]

Thanks!

What tent n rack are you running? just bought a 01 Tahoe N I really want to put a roof tent on it

[@natenesstv6685]

I have the CVT I don’t know what model but I will say be careful putting it on the stock roof racks I bent my roof putting to heavy of a tent on it.

[@davetee3589]

I've been looking for a solution to put up and take down my 160lb iKamper hard shell RTT by myself for a year now. Any help?

[@natenesstv6685]

I’ll crank out a video of how I put my RTT up, might give you an idea. If you figure out a way let me know bro.

[@natenesstv6685]

Hi Dave - I wanted to let you know I just made a video showing how I mount my RTT. Check it out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZPShJqKiZ2ta5Y

Give credit where its due. Don't steal content.

[@natenesstv6685]

I always try my best to do that as we all know KZbin is loaded with content and some times I miss a video if so that’s my bad. If there was a video posted that I could have given credit to just let me know so I can do that. Thanks for your concern comment and being so kind as to let me know.
