The Yakima OutPost HD Overland Truck Bed Rack with Tonneau Cover Adapter part # Y01152-5855 has a weight capacity of 300 lbs. I know what you're thinking, the weight of the tent with occupants are going to exceed this and in most cases you're right. That said, it doesn't mean this ladder rack is incompatible with the tent and occupants. The reason for this is that most tents like the iKamper Skycamp 3.0 have a built-in ladder for more support. Therefore, the rack does not need to be rated for the weight of the tent and occupants, just what the tent manufacturer specifies. I checked with iKamper and they state, "we always recommend to find a cross bar or rack that meet and preferably exceeds the weight of our roof top tent" so you should be good to go with this setup as the SkyCanp 3.0 only weighs 165 lbs.
