FAQs

Are these bars compatible with all TentBox models?

The SURT-079 is designed for compatibility with TentBox roof tents, but always check the specific mounting requirements of your individual TentBox model.

Do I need special tools for installation?

Most installations are straightforward; however, standard tools are included or recommended to ensure hardware is properly tightened.

Can I leave these on my car permanently?

Yes, they are designed for durability, but it is recommended to check the connections periodically if left on the vehicle long-term.

Does this package come with two bars?

Yes, the SURT-079 includes a set of two bars.

What should I do if a part is missing?

Check the packaging thoroughly, as small parts may be tucked into the bar channels or interior box compartments. If truly missing, contact your retailer with your MPN: SURT-079.

Troubleshooting

Bar feels loose after installation

Re-check the tension on the mounting hardware and ensure the rubber feet are seated correctly against the roof rails.

Increased wind noise at high speeds

Verify that the bars are centered on the roof and that all plastic end caps are snapped securely into place.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Quick installation due to pre-assembled components
  • Reinforced strength specifically for roof tents
  • Excellent compatibility with TentBox products
  • Reliable and stable mounting platform

Cons

  • Requires verification of vehicle roof load limits
  • Specific to TentBox-style mounting configurations
  • Must be checked periodically for bolt tension

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the SURT-079, ensure your vehicle's roof rails are clean and free of debris. Since the bars are pre-assembled, the primary task involves aligning the feet with your factory rail positions and tightening the included hardware until firm. Regularly inspect the torque on all bolts after the first 50 miles of driving to ensure they have settled correctly. To maintain the finish and structural integrity, clean the bars with a mild detergent and water, and avoid using harsh chemicals that could degrade the coating. Always consult your vehicle manual for the maximum dynamic and static load ratings before loading your TentBox.
