Will Inno Roof Deck Hold 23zero Rooftop Tent on 2000 Chevy Silverado
Question:
2000 silverado ls extended cab, no existing rails. I was wondering if I could mount a 23zero rooftop tent to this rack system as the tent is 125lbs by itself?

Expert Reply:
Adding a roof rack like the Rhino-Rack Vortex ( # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK227 ) would allow you to mount the Inno Roof Deck Platform Rack for Crossbars # INA520. The platform rack can hold the tent but at 125 lbs that would only leave 40 lbs for a person which isn't realistic.
Even at a higher capacity you would need to make sure your roof could handle the weight. I'm not sure which 23zero tent you have exactly or how it mounts but most people choose to put their tent on a ladder rack like the Yakima OutPost HD # Y01152-5855 or OverHaul # Y01151-59. These have a static capacity of 800 lbs so weight really isn't an issue.
