Great setup! The only issue I’ve come across is the rack squeaks a bit when off-road and the tent is mounted up. I think a simple lubricant on the rear mounting points will resolve that though. The rear window does fully open with the awning deployed.
GFC seems the way to go. I love their setups on Gladiators and Tacomas. How's it holding up?My GFC SuperLite FINALLY on the Bronco!
They are the overland pros awning mounts, high quality and a lot of room for extending the awning out pretty far. Same company that makes my awning.
Been rallying some backroads lately with it on and it's been holding up really well! This tent is pretty much bombproof, I have no worries at all off roading with it on top!
Same
Is that the one which uses double sided adhesive on the clamps hell mounts?I also have the trailrax setup, running the IKamper Mini on ours and the rack fuckin rocks. no noises issues etc yet!
its not double sided you just attach pads to the clamps to thicken them and cut out any shifting or noise
Did you just use the factory crossbars too? I am looking to do this exact setup.New to bronco6g and wanted to post a pic of my Badass Renegade rooftop tent on the oem roof rack. The Badass team is also working on a custom wind guard to go on my oem rack. The pic below is a prototype for now but makes a huge difference with wind noise after installing the RTT. Also created a rear roof/side rack for rotopax.
Been using the setup for baseball tourneys so far but going camping this week to try everything in the wild.
The BA Tent folks in San Diego are awesome! I highly recommend them.
Yes, factory crossbars.
Sweet setup!!! I've been looking for a RTT solution for my 2dr bronco and this looks like a great solution. How do you like the Foothills tent? Is it easy to setup/takedown? It seems a little on the smaller side, do you think 2 adults would be able to sleep in it comfortably? I do a lot of backpacking and so I am used to smaller tents.Well, I finally have a working setup....
