  • Can Adarac Ladder Rack Support Roof Top Tent
  • The Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack # A4000950 that fits your 5-foot bed 2017 Colorado has a total weight rating of 500-lbs between the two bars so it can be used to support a roof tent so long as the total load of the tent, gear and occupants remains within the rack's capacity. The specific tent's installation hardware will also need to be compatible with the Adarac crossbar dimensions (which are 1-1/2 x 1-1/2-inches) and with their spacing.

  • Does Adarac Truck Bed Aluminum Ladder Rack A4001666 Have Dynamic Weight Rating
  • The Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Aluminum Ladder Rack # A4001666 has a 500-lb total weight capacity between its two bars. My tech contact there confirmed that this rack does not have a different dynamic weight rating if it is used to support a tent. It would retain the same full 500-lb weight rating even in this application. With that said, do keep in mind that in normal use the load on a ladder rack (let's say its 500-lbs of lumber or pipe) would be well-secured to prevent movement...

  • What Happens To The Weight Capacity Of The Yakima OverHaul HD When Using Tonneau Cover Adapters
  • The The OverHaul HD # Y01151-5868 by itself has a 500lb capacity on-road, 300lb capacity off-road, and 800lb static capacity. When using the Tonneau Cover Adapter Kit # Y01155 that changes to a 300lb capacity on-road, 180lb capacity off-road, and the static capacity remains at 800lbs. Since you're figuring that you'll be over 800lbs you'll have to kick someone out of the rooftop tent and use another option like a rear seat mattress # 341033 or truck bed mattress # 341005 (5' bed) # 341003...

  • Can the Thule Xsporter Pro Ladder Rack be Used for a Rooftop Tent and People Weighing 500 lbs Total
  • You can definitely use the Thule Xsporter Pro Adjustable Height Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH500XT to transport and use your rooftop tent on your 2019 GMC Canyon. I reached out to my contact at Thule who confirmed that your estimated 500 lbs of weight will be safe to use with the Xsporter Pro. The 450 lb weight capacity is for when you are in motion and is called the dynamic weight capacity. Since you will be sitting still while the rooftop tent is in use the ladder rack can handle a little...

  • Is The Weight Capacity for Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack Moving or Stationary
  • The Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Racks like part # A4000950 have a 500 lb weight rating and they will work just fine for a rooftop tent. The 500 lb weight rating will be the same for both stationary and moving. I agree that this would then indicate the stationary weight capacity is likely higher but we cannot provide an exact capacity as the manufacturer simply does not do this sort of extensive testing. The only type of ladder rack I am aware of which gives multiple weight...

  • What is the Weight Capacity of the Thule Xsporter Pro Ladder Rack?
  • I confirmed with my contact at Thule that the 450 pounds of the Thule Xsporter Pro Truck Bed Ladder Rack - Aluminum # TH500XTB is the dynamic weight rating. While Thule does not have a specific static weight rating for the Xsporter, my contact reassured me that you will have more than enough weight capacity to mount a static accessory like a roof-mounted tent as long as the tent's weight rating is abided by. For example, since the Thule Tepui Foothill # TH37HJ is rated for 400 pounds, you...

  • What is the Static Weight Capacity of the Thule Xsporter # TH500XTB-THXK4B?
  • The 450-pound load capacity listed on the Thule Xsporter # TH500XTB-THXK4B is for the dynamic weight. I called my contact at Thule, and he confirmed that the static weight capacity of the Thule Xporter is about 800 pounds. If you need a tent recommendation, I recommend the Thule Tepui Foothill - 2 Person # TH37HJ. The Tepui Explorer Ayer has a weight capacity of 400 pounds and will be able to attach to the Thule Xporter ladder rack. In addition, the Foothill includes a high-density foam...

  • How Big is the Clamp on Replacement Mounting Bracket for Yakima SkyRise Rooftop Tent
  • I reached out to Yakima and found that the opening for the Replacement Mounting Bracket for Yakima SkyRise Rooftop Tent # 8880735 is 4". This allows it to fit their 4" HD crossbars. In general, the Yakima SkyRise Tent like the # Y07436 will fit most aftermarket round, square, aero, and elliptical crossbars. As long as your cross brace does not exceed the 4" opening and is similar in design to crossbars you should be able to attach the SkyRise Tent to your truck.

  • How Much Weight Can RetraxONE XR Tonneau Cover Carry
  • We've posed this question to Retrax in the past and they've said that the weight capacity of their RetraxONE XR part # RTT-60851 will be whatever the weight capacity of the roof rack installed in it has. For example we have the Rhino Rack # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 that fits directly to the RetraxONE which has a 220 lb capacity and would be an excellent option for you.

  • Weight Capacity of the Yakima OutPost HD Overland Truck Bed Ladder Rack
  • Yes, there is and you will be good! I checked with Yakima and the Yakima OutPost HD Overland Truck Bed Ladder Rack item # Y01152-5755 has a weight capacity of 500 lbs on-road, 300 lbs off-road, and 800 lbs static or stationary. However, when you add the Tonneau Cover adapter, that this kit includes, it reduces the capacity to 300 lbs on-road and 180 lbs off-road but that is when the vehicle is moving. The stationary weight capacity will also be reduced by 40% so it will be 480 lbs. Please...

  • What Thule Ladder Rack With A 1,000 Lbs Static Weight Limit Is Compatible With My 2021 Ford Ranger
  • I do have a ladder rack that will work for this application. My recommendation is the T-Rac Pro2 Truck Bed Ladder Rack for Compact Pickups - Fixed Mount - 1,000 lbs, part # TH37001XT. It has a dynamic weight limit of 1,000 lbs. You will have to check with Ford to see if your truck's rails can support this weight. The weight limit of the Thule Xsporter Pro Mid Overland Truck Bed Rack - Aluminum - 600 lbs, part # TH34RR, is a dynamic weight limit. This means while your vehicle is in motion....

  • Weight Rating for Fold Out Bed on Dutchmen Aerolite 235 Cub Hybrid Travel Trailer
  • The tech contact I spoke to at Dutchmen advised that the weight rating of the fold out beds on a 2009 Aerolite 235 Cub Hybrid, as an example model year, is 600-lbs per bed. If your trailer is a different model year it could potentially have a different weight rating for each bed. The best way to accurately confirm this capacity is using the specific trailer's VIN. With that specific information Dutchmen can confirm the construction details of the particular trailer.

  • How Much Does the Buyers Products Aluminum Ladder Rack Weigh?
  • The Buyers Products Truck Bed Ladder Rack w/ Load Stops # 3371501680 weighs in at about 42 lbs. At 800 lbs this has more than enough of a weight rating to handle your roof top tent, but you will want to check and make sure that your iKamper Skycamp 2.0 is compatible with the crossbar size of 3-1/4" wide x 1-1/2" tall. From what I would see on the iKamper site it looks like you'll need to use the Mounting Brackets 1.0 for it to fit. I've installed this ladder rack a handful of times and...
