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).

2. Check your tent

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:

2.1″ Maximum 3.3″ Maximum

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)

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it lock?

Yes it can! You can purchase a roof top tent lock or use a standard 1/2″ receiver hitch pin lock for 1-1/4″ Class I & II receiver.

What is included in the kit?

This kit includes 4 roof top tent mounts. They arrive fully assembled but installation steps are required. Spacers are also included (if needed) but will need reassembly to install. Please follow the steps in the instruction manual.

Will it fit my roof top tent?

Check the tent compatibility table and find the model of your roof top tent to learn if any special hardware is required to adapt to your tent.

What is a fit kit?

Fit kits are required for wide crossbars that are between 3.4" and 5" wide. A Fit kit is also needed if you require the "rotating feature" for platform racks. Check out the available fit kits product page.

Will it work with roof rack platforms?

Our mounts are compatible with some roof rack platforms like Front Runner and others when combined with the 1235 Rotation Fit KitThe washers will allow the mounts to rotate and clear the spacing.

NOTE: They are NOT compatible with the Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform because the slots are going front to back instead of side to side.

How can I space my tent up?

Vanultra mounts do NOT add height and will not space your tent up. On that note, these mounts are not designed to clamp to spacers or riser brackets. If you need extra height you could either raise the cross bars or consider alternative mounting solutions.

My rack is not listed? Will it work?

With hundreds of roof and bed racks constantly coming on the market we can’t list them all. Please feel free to reach out if in doubt. Our mounts will fit roof rack height’s between 0.75″ – 2.1″ and width’s between 0.75″ – 3.3″

My roof rack is low profile to the vehicle roof, how much clearance is needed?

As a rule of thumb, you will need to be able to fit your arm underneath the cross bar to remove the pins and tighten the knob. Minimum 4" below the tent.

What if it still doesn't fit?

We offer free problem solving advice and quick and easy exchanges. We will do our best to ensure that the product fits correctly the first time, if not, we are happy to exchange it for you. Still concerned? We offer a 30 day return policy.

Is there an option for 6 mounts?

Yes, we offer a kit for 6 mount assemblies for $434. This may be necessary for set ups using a 3rd cross bar to help distribute the weight of the roof top tent. Please contact sales@vanultra.com to purchase.

Great innovation

Instructions were clear and easy to follow. You will need a 13mm deep socket wrench. I love how it makes it easier to remove the tent from your vehicle but also offer security locks to keep away the thieves.

The only gripe I had was that one of the rubber padding came off even before installation. Not a dealbreaker though. Given what is available on the market right now, this is a no brainer.

Great Mounts!

Mounts work great, takes a min to get them set up perfectly for each tent but after set up they work flawlessly for an easy tool less install and removal. Have been driving with the tent mounted for 1 week and they are still tight. Love how they are a low profile they are and how the locking pin is a standard 1/2" shaft and can be purchased anywhere. Would have gave it 5 stars except for the fact that the glue holding the rubber pads to the brackets is very weak and the pads fell off rather quickly, not a huge deal to reglue them on with better adhesive but at this price point I feel the quality of the glue could have been better. Fix the rubber pad glue and this is a 5 star product for sure. Thank you.

Hi Scott,
Thank you for your thoughtful and detailed review! Your input is invaluable in helping us refine our products and deliver the quality you expect. We truly appreciate you bringing the issue with the rubber pads to our attention. You’re not alone in experiencing this, and we’ve already taken steps to address it. For the next batch of parts, we’ve added a textured surface to the rubber pads for improved adhesion, used a stronger adhesive, and ensured compatibility with EPDM and painted stainless steel.
Thank you again for your honest feedback and for supporting Vanultra!

Great product and company

I've had the RTT Quick Release Mounts now for nearly a year and they have performed flawlessly. Our RTT has stayed attached with no drama despite being driven for hours on some truly horrible rock garden roads and other nasty terrain.

Getting the tent on and off is super easy. So easy, I got complacent when removing the tent recently. I failed to ensure the mounts were clear of the roof rack bars and one of them got bent out of shape by the hoist. 100% my own fault to make such a basic mistake.

I reached out to Trevor and the team at Vanultra about purchasing spare parts, really not expecting any response till after the holidays, and the very next day they are shipping me what I need under warranty! Unbelievable! They had no obligation to cover my mistake. I can't say enough great things about the product and company! :)
