    Box Rocket Homemade trailer build.

    well, 5 months after starting the lid frame I have it mostly completed. I still need to finish the new rack for the tent over the next couple days before heading to Moab on the weekend to demo Tepui tents. Overall, I'm glad to finally have a lid on the trailer for better security and...

    With the ladder, extend it out from the bottom rung first so that unused rungs are collapsed at the top. There are "half steps" between locking points that will also "lock" rungs in place. If you have other questions, feel free to ask here. I may be able to respond quicker than the guys at...

    I can always offer 10% off to forum members. Southeast Overland in SC is probably the nearest dealer. Tepui is working on building their eastern dealer base. It looks like there will also be a new one in Atlanta right away.

    Roof Racks, where to start?!

    The trick with the racks is with the feet and their location. Most newer vehicles use the roof tracks with captured nuts for the factory racks instead of rain gutters like on older vehicles. The tracks and captured nuts are in different locations on different vehicles making it not really...

    Thinnest packed RTT?

    The Tepui Ayer is slightly more compact than other Tepui tents. It's 11" tall (without the ladder and rails), 12" with just the rails. So to fit what you need you'd need to remove the ladder. I've seen several people who do that. Tepui also sells quick release brackets for the ladders if...

    Tepui Tent RTT

    Gotcha, I suppose those would work in a pinch but I'd be worried about breaking the plastic. A lot heavier forces on those with a tent than with a ski rack. Better than nothing.

    Tepui Tent RTT

    We may be talking about two different things. Maybe I'm mistaken but it sounds like you're talking about the mounting rails themselves. The parts that people are looking for are the brackets. These are the pieces not in stock at the moment.
