    Tepui Tent RTT

    I believe so. You'll want to call the shop directly. 800-301-9874. Kyle or Griffin should be able to get you what you need, or help with a solution. Let me know if you can't get a hold of them.

    Tepui Tent RTT

    I don't think you need to worry too much about the tension rods getting pulled out. When they are in place there is enough tension on them that it's very difficult for them to pull out. I've had my rainfly set open with the rods in some pretty strong winds several times and have not had any...

    Import RTT From China? Ever try it? Pitfalls concerns?

    I can completely understand someone being hesitant to spend ~$1000 and up on a quality RTT. It's not an insignificant purchase. However, in most cases the ones that balk at the price have not seen one of the QUALITY tents up close, let alone use one in the field. The hesitance is still...

    TEPUI XL KUKENAM RUGGEDIZED - Just need another opinion, or a few!

    Sorry to hear it. Sounds like a typical online classifieds scam to me. Unfortunately far too common. Sellers will demand a cash in advance payment and then skip town and/or disappear and you're out money and no 'product' to show for it. . FWIW, $1000 is a great deal on an XL Ruggedized if...

    OME BP-51 Suspension coming 2015

    I know Kurt at Cruiser Outfitters has the full "kit" installed on his 200 series Cruiser and is very happy with it. You might check with him or look at his "project Fauxverlander" build in the Toyota Land Cruiser section.

    Blender, My LX450/FZJ80 + FJ45esk + GM + Land Rover crazy concoction

    I like where you're headed. Although I suspect that a fully loaded J80 is beyond 6,000 lbs quite easily when loaded. I know mine is and it's nowhere near as "kitted-out" as some. So weight wise if you hit your goal weight I believe you'll have a strong setup that will work well, depending on...

    Who can read this tire size pictured?

    Looks much narrower than a 285.

    Blender, My LX450/FZJ80 + FJ45esk + GM + Land Rover crazy concoction

    Poly Performance has replacement axle shafts that are quite a bit stronger than the factory shafts if that's a concern. Should be plenty strong. Heck Slee Offroad was running 42's on their Shortbus project with stock axles for quite a while. I know they upgraded chromoly birfs/shafts in the...

    Tepui Tent RTT

    These particular parts are likely interchangeable. However, it's a common misconception that all the tents coming from China are made in the same factory with different logos slapped on them. There are literally dozens of factories in China that are now manufacturing tents, many of which use...

    Good stuff! Thanks for posting those photos too. It's a common question that get's asked and these photos will help people understand how to do it and that it's possible with the Kukenam. Unfortunately, there's just a bit too much material on the Autanas and Gran Sabanas to leave the annex...

    Tepui Tent RTT

    Tent base is 56x96" when open. The mattress is maybe an inch smaller on each side. I'm a side sleeper too and have never been uncomfortable but I understand everyone is different when it comes to sleep. I know several people that added a 1" memory foam pad on top of the mattress with good luck...

    In the Market for a 80 Series

    There's a wide range of prices on these but $12k is pretty high unless it is literally flawless with no tears in the leather (which can be common), no leaks, and all things in excellent working condition. Locked 40th Anniversary models are somewhat rare I suppose, relatively speaking but IMO...

    The best solution would be a full replacement roofrack. However, I have seen a few 100 series cruisers that have mounted tents to the vertical rails of the factory rack, but Tepui couldn't be held responsible for any damage that could be caused by that. My personal opinion is that most racks...

    My mistake. I didn't read or look close enough.

    The tent will come with all the mounting hardware. You'll want some kind of rack with a minimum 150 lb capacity. The stock rack may not be adequate on its own. You can look at load bars like the ones from Yakima or Thule. Or there are lots of good roofrack options from companies like BajaRack...
