Magiollina Grand Tour on 100 series OE roof rack?

[JohnnyS]

We mounted a medium Grand Tour this afternoon on the 80 and the COG is way too high (tall 80 w/ a tall Front Runner rack)...thus I'm thinking about moving it over to the 100.
It seems that the OE 100 series roof rack will do fine until I can procure something better (slimline 2 probably).
Has anyone else mounted a similar Magiollina to an OE rack with decent results?

Thanks!

I have an older Camping Labs RTT on my factory rack. It isn't an ideal setup, but the rack can tolerate the load. I realize this isn't the same tent as your Magiollina, but yours should sit somewhat lower.

I had a Medium Maggilina Grand Tour mounted on my 100 series but sold it. I replaced it with a small Airtop. I'm using Thule Crossroads mounts and load bars.

Was your medium mounted to the OE rack or were you using the Thule bars?

Thanks!

It was mounted using the Thule rack. Here is how my setup looks.
