Im planning on getting a Jeep JL two door, and have been trying to find a rooftop tent that can fit two people comfortably as well as fit on a two door wrangler JL. most people would go for the four door wrangler for overlanding because of the space as well as the roof space for a rooftop tent. But I just love the two door more. Im so glad I found this video because now I know there is a tent that can do the job! now I know what my first mod will be for my future overlanding trips. thank you!

Great video. I got really inspired by the roof rack video you did. I got the HMF LED brackets in the mail the other day and have my rear rack mounting system just about completed. I plan to start bending the main rails for my roof rack and finishing up pretty soon. I really like how compact this tent folds up, but I wanna to go a little bigger/longer I think. I’m 6’3” tall and want room for my wife and 7 year old daughter. Fortunately I cut and stretched my TJ to LJ length a couple years ago so I have about 15” extra length up there to play with. I have a build thread on JeepForum if you’re interested. It’s titled “My surgical TJ-6 build” I actually gave you a shout out at the beginning of the roof rack section ;-) I’m thinking I might set my tent up to open out over the back of the Jeep so I can install a retractable awning on the side of my rack. Still just a though at this point though. Anyway thanks for sharing. It’s really helpful to have detailed reviews like this. Cheers.

I like that tent, I've been wondering for a while what brand might fit my TJ. Thanks for the demo! That rack out back, above the spare is perfect for those late night pee's. Just place an old coffee tin can out there before going to sleep, then when you need to go just stand on your knees at the window, whip your Johnson out and let er' rip. Then when you hear the stream hit the can, you'll know when you're on target. After that just fall back on the mattress and back to sleep!

Good point. I've also got a 2 door jk, so bulk and weight have to be scrutinized. This RTT seems like a great fit to my needs, but keeping my bedding in the tent would be ideal. So my question is: if bedding causes a bulge in the tent when stowed, how much is too much?
