Yeah overhang is my concern. The tent I have picked out is 55" wide..
Like I said, I'm evaluating the VX's viability and this might be a problem.
How wide is yours, fredrick_remington?

aould be the roof top rack capacity. My rack says 150 pounds. I lost 100 pounds in the last year and I am still more than that. Any weight for the equipment would just be adding more weight.

10 lb OEM rack.
My set up comes in at 115 lb....so I'm over.
25 lb - Yakima Loadwarrior
28 lb - OEM 18" rim
49 lb - NTG 285/60
3 lb - locking hook
110 lb TOTAL
The weakest link in the equation is the part of the roof rails where the metal bracket hooks onto.
Is there another way to secure/attach the roof tent?

Strange, I haven't been on here in months, since internet on an Aircraft Carrier in the Gulf is really slow, but I was lookin at these tents today to kill some time! I am doing a trailer mount though. Something I can pull behind the VX or Trooper and haul gear on top. Very cool!!
