Does Thule Tepui Kukenam 3-Person Tent Fit Rhino-Rack Crossbars on Tundra With Retrax Pro XR Tonneau

Question:

Hey there, I have a 23 Tundra crewmax with the 56foot bed. I just ordered a Retrax ProXR tonneau cover and have a new Thule Tepui Kukenam 3 tent. I am leaning towards purchasing the Rhino Rack RLT Vortex Aero Rack which is compatible with the T-slots on the Retrax to mount the tent to. I was wondering if there is some type of quick adapter something like the Yakima Skyrise rtt mounting bracket that would work for my tent with the Vortex rack? If not, is there some type of T-slot adapter that is an upgrade over the mounting hardware that comes with my tent? I appreciate your time!

Thank you for your order of the RetraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover # RTX99XR for your 2023 Toyota Tundra. While there is no type of adapter for the Thule Tepui Explorer Kukenam 3 Rooftop Tent # TH8001KSK05, I can tell you it will definitely fit the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbars for Retrax XR # RRVA180B-RRRLT600.

The Vortex crossbars are 100% within the dimensions of the crossbar size needed for the Kukenam, but you do have to use the hardware that came with the tent, as there isn't any other adapter or other way to mount it.
