Which Ladder or Roof Rack Compatible with TruckHero TS Rails Can Support a Roof Tent

Is the Truck Hero TS elevate rail system compatable with any rack system that can hold a rooftop tent? Approx 650 lbs or more of static load.

I recommend using the Yakima OverHaul HD Adjustable Truck Bed Ladder Rack for Tonneau Cover - 60" Crossbars # Y01151-5755, which has an 800-lbs static load limit and is compatible with the TS (T-Slot) Rails for Truck Hero Elevate Rack System. This is one of the most popular solutions for a rooftop tent and can be used with a tonneau cover and will look really great.

For a rooftop tent you'll want to use one with a ladder that offers secondary weight support like the Yakima SkyRise HD Tent for Roof Rack Crossbars - 3 Person - 600 lbs - Tan and Red # Y07437. This is a great 3 person tent that can be used on the Overhaul HD bars.

I've linked some review videos of these parts for you to check out, as well.
