FAQs

Are these bars suitable for all vehicles?

These bars are designed for specific applications compatible with TentBox setups; please verify your vehicle's specific model requirements before purchase.

Can I leave these bars on my car permanently?

Yes, they are made from durable, corrosion-resistant aluminium suitable for long-term exterior use, provided they are checked for security periodically.

Do I need extra tools for assembly?

Because the bars arrive pre-assembled, you generally only need standard hand tools to secure the bars to your vehicle's roof mount points.

What is the weight capacity of the SURT-001?

The weight capacity is determined by your vehicle manufacturer's roof load limit, which you should never exceed even if the bars are rated for more.

Is the installation difficult for a beginner?

No, the pre-assembled nature of the SURT-001 makes it very accessible for beginners, though having a second person to help lift the bars onto the roof is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Excessive wind noise

Check that the end caps are fully secure and that the bars are correctly aligned perpendicular to the vehicle's centerline.

Movement or rattling

Re-tighten all mounting hardware, ensuring that the rubber foot pads are sitting flush against the vehicle surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the SURT-001 is designed to be user-friendly due to the pre-assembled nature of the bars. Begin by checking the mounting points on your vehicle roof to ensure they align with the bar footings. Once seated, tighten all bolts evenly to ensure equal pressure distribution across the roof track or door frame.

Regarding care, check the tension of the bolts after the first 50 miles of driving once the tent has been installed, as the hardware may settle. Clean the aluminium surfaces with mild soapy water to remove debris or salt residue, especially if the vehicle is stored outside for long periods, to prevent surface corrosion.
