Vanultra Low Profile Roof Rack RTT Mount - Episode 2 - Preproduction Testing with Sherpa

[@usmcmsgt5487]

The canvas bottom is what makes this a hard pass. I can imagine over time feeling the support bars on the bottom.

Was this comment supposed to be posted on a camping cot video? We are not sure which canvas you are referring to.

I have a very lowpro setup with my OVS tent and my UpTop rack on my Telluride. This might be the option i go with. Thank you

[@vanultra_llc]

These mounts are designed for SUVs like your Telluride. Please give them a try!

[@vittoamp]

@vanultra_llc thank you! Looking forward to using your mounts!

These will work on an 80 series LC as well right?

[@vanultra_llc]

Yes, these mounts will work on an 80 series if you have an aftermarket roof rack with 2” wide by 1” tall cross bars. Check out episode 3 for an install on a 60 series Land Cruiser

How is the noise from the rtt bars touching the rack bars in between the clamped rails, some people use tent risers to prevent contact with the bars in between, does this mount fix those issues especially if going over big bumps, do those bars clash and chatter?

[@vanultra_llc]

Great question Dave, our current design integrates a 1” tent riser into the geometry of the mount. This 1” rise solves the terrible rattle sound caused by the unclamped middle cross bars. With over 2,000 testing miles we can confirm that the tent is quite with no chatter on or off road.

@@vanultra_llc I appreciate your response, I did notice the 1” rise after watching the videos a couple of times, I have a 2021 Ford Bronco with a Trailrax roof rack and an Inspired overland lightweight standard tent. The side brackets of the Trailrax makes it difficult to attach the rtt directly to the rack and the lip doesn’t allow me to pre attach 2 perpendicular rails onto the tent before dropping it directly on top of the rack so this might be a great solution to the problem I’ve been having to keep the profile low and not add too much height.

@@daveyman We understand your set up, thanks for sharing. You are correct the 90 degree lip on the TrailRax prevents the cross bars from being removed. We have test fitted and confirmed that are mounts do not inhibit the Bronco T tops from being removed. The hooks only hang 1” below the cross bar. These mounts are perfect for Bronco owners with TrailRax or similar roof racks 🤙

[@daveyman]

@@vanultra_llc awesome that was my next question but I went ahead and placed my order as I would have sacrificed the t-top removal for easy mounting of the rtt but even better that I can still remove the top. Can’t wait to set up the mounts!

@@daveyman thank you for supporting our small business with your order. Please share your feedback after you have installed the mounts and tested them off-road.
