The Smittybilt Overlander Tent is designed to mount easily on your stock roof rack
system or on an aftermarket rack/crossbar system. The Smittybilt Overlander Tent weights
only 118 lbs, so it can be mounted to most rack systems. Generally, most OE roof racks will
have a capacity of 100-200 lbs while vehicle is in motion(dynamic rating). However, when
the vehicle is parked and you are utilizing your Smittybilt Overlander Tent you are applying
a static load which is easier to support and most rack systems can generally handle this
static load with ease. Always check with the manufacturer of your vehicle and your roof rack
system to determine the applicable weight limitations as they vary from vehicle to vehicle.
If you need a roof rack system or more carrying capacity you may check with your
local supplier for Smittybilt, Thule, or Yakima racks to suit your needs.
Check local and state laws regarding roof mounted load capacities. Many states have
a limit of 165lbs while vehicle is in motion, and therefore most vehicle manufactures will
built their roof racks to meet that limit. The Smittybilt Overlander Tent weights only 118 lbs,
so it can be mounted to most rack systems.
