I'm pretty sure those rails are not rated for the weight of a Roof Top Tent.
The rails - yes, the rain gutters - no. Is a big enough cost savings for the time being, I am willing to take my chances. It is really hard to spend $1500-2000 on a Rhino rack or Gobi, when the tent cost $750 and Mopar rails were $200.

Yesterday I went to my buddies house who loves to work with wood and we made a new box for my old subwoofer.

My old amp has high level input through a 4 pin connector. I extended those and tapped into the B pillar lines. Installed my 12in woofer and now I have bass and the sound is "full" where as before it sounded like the music was just in the front. It was bugging me. Im not too big on music but if I do wanna jam itll sound better!

I just gotta wrap it now and make it nice...

**EDIT**

12in Pioneer shallow mount - 350w RMS
Xplod amp

- These 2 items are OLD. I got my first car in 2005 and I wanna say 3-4 years later I added sound system and thats where these came from. So ATLEAST 10 years old but they sound gooooood. My old box was a piece of crap that 17 year old me put together lol. It rattled and sound was distorted due to wrong dimensions. It was much bigger than new box. I looked up the specs and realized I needed to go down on inside dimensions. MUCH smoother bass.

I bought these off Etsy. He had the American flag but not the Texas flag. I just emailed him directly and asked; he responded very quickly that he could make it for me. The decals are very high quality.

The name of the shop is in the photo. ShepherdDesignsInc.

I got this EAG rack that is supposed to be rated for 300lbs. rear mounts to the window hinge, two rain gutter mounts on each side and four rubber mounted points that rest on the top. Looks and feels very sturdy and not a bad price at around $650 for the full rack. This pic is without the center section so I can still get the Freedom tops off.

Installed the new heavy duty iPad/Tablet from ProClip. It’s pretty solid!

OK how did your iPad test out... any videos to see if jumping around...

Thanks for doing this video.

Keep Jeeping.

Who makes that mounting bracket? Would it work on the passenger side - less likely to hit it with my head on the other side

Fishbone Offroad, I hit my head the first day when trying to see the parking lines in the lot. Definitely considered putting it on the wife's side after that. And I'm short too.

Finally took the freedom panels off. Took my mom to lunch. About a 15 minute ride for some great Cuban food and coffee. Put the panels back on when I got home though. Driving to work at 5am tomorrow and it is still cold here until 11am. Besides that the city I work in is twice the national average on crime rate so I am never going to park it there with the panels or top off.
