    Hey great channel ! Dumb question here..much like you I dont want to have any 'perm fixtures' in my XLT tub and need to use a tub rack to place an rtt. The thing is, given the space required for a fridge and sliding drawer it does not leave much space especially the way the shutter roller is installed. Would you remove the shutter roller and store more stuff in the space between the fridge top, the drawer and the tub rack top? Just wondering how to secure equipment stored there

    I am looking at options for a trailer and looking at installing adjustable height legs or a design that can allow the tent to free-stand. thought of getting some modular storage racks that can act as stands when required, thus giving me more layout options and freeing up the car.

    G'day, we have the same tub rack & tent, but the the rack cross bars can't seem to line up for the width of the tent's bars. They are adjustable but we can't seem to get the 800mm width without it being way off centre. Any advice?

    No corrugated tubing to protect the wiring harness, no heat shrink on connections and running the compressor straight from the AGM battery. Not to mention that the battery box is the wrong way around. There are anderson plugs on the end as well as the back. All in all a pretty average attempt at a very simple install.

    Just fitted the tub rack and tent. Be the worst job I’ve ever had to do. Wasn’t happy with the 4 bolts that hold the rails on. Just not enough meat on them. Deleted the rails and used larger bolts direct through to the rack. Used 4 of the six tub rails on top so the whole tent sits flat on it. I also introduced some thin ply to the tent over hang to eliminate the crunch effect when entering it. Yet to try it all out.

    Had this for a few years. Pack up and set up required an extra ladder as I had it on top of a Delica. The tent was brilliant. Warm, waterproof, sturdy. Camped in heavy snow and it held up the weight. I packed it up wet a few times, and when set up again a few weeks later there was no mould or mildew and the water was still beading on the outside. Interior was always dry and never musty. I discovered the 6 man annex wasn't remotely water proof though. It was always an indoor swimming pool if it rained at all. I'd done a few road trips around NSW with the tent. Setting up and packing up every day got a little tiresome. Few years later it started developing a bit of wear and tear. Straps breaking, the floor began creaking and cracking, buckling. But for the cost of it, I got a lot of use out of it before it needed replacing. I upgraded to the Tourer X a few months ago. It doesnt feel as big on the inside as the original Tourer, but it's not a bad tent. Can't leave blankets and pillows inside like you can with the tourer though. Has to be emptied.
