Verify your set-up is compatible in 3 easy steps:
1. Check your clearance
Please ensure that you are able to maneuver your hand underneath your rack to operate the mounting system. A minimum 3.5" of space is needed below the tent mounting rail to fit the mounts. Therefore, this product is NOT COMPATIBLE with Rhino Rack Pioneer platforms, and SUV's with low profile roof racks like Sherpa, Prinsu or Gobi roof racks.
TIP: Do the "credit card test", you must be able to fit a card's length between your tent and vehicle (see image 15).

Take a look at your tent mounting rail and match the geometry shown in the images for Option A, B, C. The hardware at the top of the brackets vary. You may also search for your tent model in the matrix down below.
3. Check your rack
Fits rectangular cross bars within these sizes:
Height | Width |
0.75″ Minimum | 0.75″ Minimum |
2.1″ Maximum | 3.3″ Maximum |

Fits round tube cross bars within these sizes:
Round Tube | 1.1″ - 2.1″ Outside Diameter |
THE PROBLEM - Roof top tent hardware is time consuming and difficult to remove
Roof top tents need to be removed regularly to:
- Improve your fuel mileage
- Improve your vehicle handling
- Enable garage parking
- Use automatic car washes
- Access drive-throughs
- Install other roof rack accessories (kayaks, mountain bikes, etc.)
- Prevent tampering of the tent
THE SOLUTION – Vanultra Roof Top Tent Quick Release Mounts
Product key features:
- Quick Release / Disconnect
- Low profile – no height added to the tent
- Compatible with most racks – round tubular, rectangular and brand specific crossbars
- Drop and drive install – tent alignment is set once with the fixed side of the mount
- No tools required after initial install
- Locking feature with 1/2″ hitch pins (sold separately)

In Fall 2021, Tuff Stuff redesigned the mounting rails and hardware kit for the ALPHA model tent. Tents purchased prior to Fall 2021 use a custom M10 T-bolt (shown here) with a 17mm hex head lock nut. The industry standard for Roof Top Tents is M8 hardware. Vanultra quick release mounting brackets are not compatible with the M10 T-bolt. A fit kit is required to replace the T-bolt with standard M8 hardware.
ALPHA tents purchased after Fall 2021, do not require fit kits because they include the standard M8 hardware with nut slider plates.
