Expert Answers about Tents


  • Possible Patio Tent Solutions In Place Of The MORryde Patio Tent For Toy Haulers
  • The MORryde Inflatable Rear Patio Tent # MR54KR that you mentioned has been discontinued and is no longer available, however I may have another solution for you. Take a look at the: -ArcHaus Camping Tent and Clip-On Interior Screen Room # SAR024-031. This tent is a bit smaller than the MORryde patio tent, however the result is very similar. This tent is technically designed to work with SUV's, however you could use it on the patio of your toy hauler. Alternatively, if you have an awning,...

  • Can I Use a Roof Top Tent on a 2020 Porsche Cayenne with Factory Thule Crossbars
  • It does look like the Porsche Cayenne Turbo's factory crossbars are a Thule Aeroblade style setup with a maximum capacity of 220-lbs (dynamic capacity), so you can use a rooftop tent like the Thule Tepui Low-Pro 2 Rooftop Tent # TH8001LP204 without any issues since they're designed to fit on the aero style bars. You will want to confirm the static load capacity of your roof in your Porsche's owner's manual, but these tents with ladders do a great job of dispersing the weight in the tent...

  • How to Carry Thule Tepui Rooftop Tent with 2017 Mazda CX-3
  • Thank you for reaching out! For your application we need to look at an alternative to a roof rack on your 2017 Mazda CX-3 because the Thule Tepui Explorer Ayer 2 Rooftop Tent, like the part 901201 in blue, is not supposed to be installed on a roof rack that uses clamps to install on the vehicle. This is because the weight of the tent could damage your roof. Any rooftop tent that I've looked at the instructions for have this same instruction - they are only supposed to be installed on roof...

  • Roof Rack Needed to Carry a Roof Top Tent with a 2018 Subaru Crosstrek
  • It really depends on what roof top tent you are looking at. If you are looking into the Yakima SkyRise HD Tent # Y07436 then you will need to have raised rails and use the roof rack that consists of the Jetstream Bars # Y00426 , along with the TimberLine Towers # Y33TR. If you would like to add lock cores to your roof rack you can use part # Y07204. I have attached a clip from the product page where you can see some of the stipulations about fit. The roof rack must be rated for 165 lbs...

  • Can a Rooftop Tent be Added to the Malone EcoLight Kayak Trailer
  • There aren't any kits that we have that'll allow you to add a tent and different kayak carriers onto your Malone EcoLight Sport Trailer with Post Style Carrier for 4 Kayaks # MAL63FR. To use a tent, you'd have to use a different trailer like the Malone MicroSport Trailer # MPG460G which already has crossbars on it, but unfortunately you still wouldn't be able to carry your kayaks at the same time.

  • What Part do You Recommend to Connect a Pop-Up Camper Stove Directly to a Propane Tank?
  • Since the photo you sent is of a male quick disconnect, the part you need before connecting to your regulator is the MB Sturgis Sturgi-Stay T-Fitting for POL Valve - 2 Model 250 Quick Disconnect Ports # 103537-MBS.

  • Recommended Roof Rack for 2017 Kia Sorento to Carry Yakima SkyRise HD Tent
  • The components needed to allow you to use a rooftop tent like the Yakima SkyRise HD # Y07437 would be the same no matter which manufacturer you chose, and it sounds like you've got flush mounted rails on your roof so you'll really just need the roof rack kit; a full roof rack kit would include the towers and crossbars. The Yakima SkyRise HD can be mounted to square, round, aero or elliptical shaped aftermarket crossbars from most manufacturers, so you really could use most any brand of...

  • Recommended Crossbars for a 2024 Subaru BRZ With a Bare Roof
  • From what I've gathered the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B is going to be your only option to add crossbars to your 2024 Subaru BRZ. These bars are not going to work with a roof top tent like the Yakima SkyRise HD Tent for Roof Rack Crossbars # Y07436 since all roof top tents are designed to be used with flush rails or raised rails. The good news is that you can still use a cargo box like the Thule Pulse Large Rooftop Cargo Box # TH615. So as it stands right now, there...

  • Recommended Roof Rack And Rooftop Tent for a 2001 Chevrolet Silverado With a Camper Shell

This crossbar setup has a maximum weight capacity of 220-lbs, and will mount to your camper shell on your Silverado and will provide a mounting point for your Thule Tepui Explorer # TH8001KSK05. This setup will give you more than enough capacity to handle two adults plus the crossbars and the tent.

  • I took a look at the MORryde Inflatable Rear Patio Tent for Toy Haulers # MR54KR that you mention, and unfortunately it appears that this has been discontinued, however I do have another potential option. You may consider taking a look at the ArcHaus Camping Tent and Clip-On Interior Screen Room # SAR024-031.

  • Recommended Awning For A 144 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Passenger Van
  • When it comes to installing an awning on your Mercedes-Benz Spring Passenger Van I recommend The Thule HideAway Awning for ProMaster or Sprinter - Roof Mount - 10 foot 8 inch Long x 8 foot Wide # TH620001. The TH620002 is not available but they were very similar. This hideaway awning rolls out from the top of your Sprinter cargo van to provide shelter from the sun and rain.

  • Can I Add T-Track Rails To My Retrax Tonneau Cover That Does Not Have T-Tracks?
  • While you can't use the Replacement Side Rails for Retrax XR Series Hard Tonneau Covers # RTX39FR with your existing tonneau cover that does not have t-tracks, I do have a couple of other options that will work for you.

  • To determine the correct parts for your 1982 Starcraft Starlite 1506 xl tent camper, you will have to remove the hub from the trailer and either get part numbers from the inner and outer bearing, and grease seal or measure the spindle in 3 places and the hub in two places. I have included a photo showing the places to look for part numbers and places to measure if part numbers are not visible on your bearings and seal. If you need to measure, a dial caliper will be needed to get accurate...

  • Recommended Tent Option for a 2023 Kia Soul
  • For a roof rack I recommend going with the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711420, with the Evo Clamp Feet for Thule Crossbars # TH710501, and Fit Kit for Thule Evo Clamp and Edge Clamp Roof Rack Feet # TH145212. These crossbars measure 53" long x 3-1/8" wide x 1" tall and have a weight capacity of 220-lbs however this is the dynamic (while in motion) weight rating, so while stationary your crossbars will be rated much higher however you'll want to adhere to your roof's maximum capacity...
