Dual cab utes are currently some of the most popular vehicles in Australia and part of their popularity is their flexibility and versatility \u2013 they\u2019re ideal for work or play and make a great base to build your dream camping set up.<\/p>\n

Similarly, a dual cab ute will allow you plenty of options when fitting an\u00a0Adventure Kings Tourer Roof Top Tent Tourer<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/b>to your vehicle.<\/p>\n

We’ll start with the obvious;<\/p>\n

Roof Bars<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Fitting roof bars or a solid steel roof rack system, is the simplest way to get a Adventure Kings Tourer Roof Top Tent Tourer<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0fitted onto your vehicle. Included with your\u00a0tent<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>is a fitting kit, which works by fastening the Roof Top Tent’s<\/strong><\/a> built in mounting rails to your factory fitted roof rack bars directly. This method will work easily without any special modifications and still allows full access to your tray or tub so it\u2019s ideal for people who use their utes for carrying larger bits of gear like motorbikes or other gear required for work and also for going away on weekends.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

NB<\/strong>: Always ensure the roof bars you use are rated to carry the full weight of an\u00a0Adventure Kings Tourer Roof Top Tent Tourer<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Canopy Mounting<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

If you do have a fibre glass canopy and with the necessary reinforced roof and roof bars, you can also fit your Adventure Kings Tourer Roof Top Tent Tourer<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>on top of it. Fitting to your canopy means you can fit a roof rack above the cab for even more gear\u00a0 storage and also means you can choose to mount your Adventure Kings Tourer Roof Top Tent Tourer<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>so it opens up off the back or on either side of your vehicle, this is another way that you can maximise your ute\u2019s flexibility.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

NB<\/strong>: Just remember to confirm the canopy and any attached bars have a weight rating sufficient to hold the Adventure Kings Tourer Roof Top Tent Tourer<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

One of the more popular first modifications made to tradies 4WD Utes is a fully customised alloy rear canopy. If you have an alloy canopy already on your vehicle,\u00a0 you can mount your Adventure Kings Tourer Roof Top Tent Tourer<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0directly to it provided the frame and structure of the roof\u00a0 section of the canopy can handle the the load.<\/p>\n

It really depends on your canopies design and what it is engineered for, but most custom alloy (or steel framed) canopies will easily be strong enough to hold the weight of a\u00a0Adventure Kings Tourer Roof Top Tent Tourer.<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0Again this method gives you the choice of where your Roof Top Tent<\/strong><\/a> will open whether it is out the left or right side of the vehicle or even\u00a0 if you prefer your tent to open over the tailgate, so mounting your tent\u00a0<\/strong><\/a>to your canopy is\u00a0a great choice for versatility.<\/p>\n

NB:\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong>as always double check with the fabricator or manufacturer to be sure it\u2019ll hold the weight of your Adventure Kings Tourer Roof Top Tent Tourer<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>and you\u2019ll be one happy camper.<\/p>\n

Custom Bar work<\/strong><\/p>\n

Finally, you can always mount your Adventure Kings Tourer Roof Top Tent Tourer<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>using an over the tray ladder rack, a\u00a0Roof Top Tent Rack<\/strong><\/a>, or even a custom made tent specific rack, systems like this are specifically designed to sit over your Ute tub and will keep the overall height of your\u00a0Adventure Kings Tourer Roof Top Tent Tourer<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0lower which\u00a0reduces overall wind drag for better fuel economy and fuel tank range, , increasing your total height clearance and keeping your centre of gravity low. These are another great choice if you want the option of mounting your Adventure Kings Tourer Roof Top Tent Tourer<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong> off the side or back of your vehicle.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

NB:\u00a0<\/strong>As always check the weight capacity of the rack to make sure it\u2019s up to scratch and will safely hold your roof top tent.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There are so many options for dual cab utes, there\u2019s no excuse not to have the ultimate camp setup, and the best way to build your ultimate camp setup is to start with an Adventure Kings Tourer Roof Top Tent<\/a><\/strong>!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Whether you want it over the cab, over the tub or tray, even fitted off the back or side of your vehicle is completely up to you!<\/p>\n
