RTT iKamper roof top tent with Thule Aerobars over a BAK Revolver X4S with tracks.

This setup stores easily overhead in the garage using a Warn drill operated winch by myself. The rear slider opens to see traffic under the tent while keeping the roof line flat. No real noticeable reduction in fuel economy. The bed cover can roll up the stored position or be removed completely.

Now I can tow my Lund behind, get to a spot to fish the evening and morning bite and be In and out of the campsite in minutes.

Awesome setup! I'm looking at a similar rack to put my bikes on.

(found tonneau cover brand in title), what's the height needed to let your tonneau open fully w/o having to remove the rack?

What height does this put the top of the crossbars, as measured from the ground? I'm curious if I could mount this low enough to let me drive into the garage without removing the bike's

If the Tonneau is rolled into more of an ellipse it can open fully with around 6-7" 15-18cm of clearance. There are four studs underneath with hand wing type nuts that allow the cover to be removed completely.
56" 142cm to the top of the load bar on this 4x4 Mav.

Thanks! Just measured and even with the front wheels off I'd need about 86" ... my clearance is only 83"

My biggest fear is forgetting I have the bikes on the rack and crashing them into the garage door ...

When I built my house I went with 8' doors and 10' ceilings. Next time 12' ceiling and 10 foot door.

I didn't want a super tall looking garage on my house, but thanks to some design tricks it has the 12' ceiling that I need for my lift.

Garage doors taller than 8 feet would have looked really goofy with the design so I didn't want to go higher. But this got me thinking that maybe I can adjust the door so it stops higher than 86" and I'll be OK ... I'll check how high my opener can go

The track that comes with the door whether 7' 8' etc can be replaced with a larger radius curved section which will allow the door to be closer to the ceiling. Also the vertical section can be lengthened. Etc.
