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.
THE PROBLEM – Roof top tents need to be removed regularly
Roof top tent hardware is time consuming and difficult to remove especially with low profile roof racks. Roof top tents need to be removed to:
- Improve your fuel mileage
- Improve your vehicle handling
- Enable garage parking
- Use automatic car washes
- Drive through access
- Install other roof rack accessories (kayaks, mountain bikes, etc.)
- Prevent tampering of the tent
THE SOLUTION – Vanultra Roof Top Tent 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 cross bars
- 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)
