Roof Racks for a Commodore Ute Body Tray NOT Roof

[Guest]

Just a question and I don't even know if this is possible.

I am interested in purchasing a roof top tent.

The idea I have is simple. I want to sit it on top of my ute tray.

My ute tray is the body of the vehicle its a commodore ute.

Does anyone know if you can purchase roof racks that fit above the commodore body tray rather than the roof?

The body side does have an area where the tarp clicks into place so I am presuming you might clip those racks in

this place.

Have found nothing but curious to see whats out there.

Thanks in advance

There's always an option like this:

Have you checked trailer tents without the trailer? Got to be close to the same width.

i have seen the same thing done except they made a cage that fits over the tray tub with the rootop tent on top

the space in the ute tub is still used for storage with doors that open up so you get the best of both worlds

its not for me , i prefer a lockable alloy canopy on the tray so i can sleep inside it if i want or store valuables safely and either put a boat on the roof of the canopy or a rooftop tent if i am taking a lady with me.
