TeraFlex Install: NEBO Roof Rack

[climbhi@gmail.com]

Nebo Cross-bar Slats 4 Sale - Silver

I've got 3 cross-bar slats for sale - I recently purchased and installed the Nebo base-bar package and cross-bar slat kit in silver, but I only really need three slats for all my carrying needs. Message me if you're interested.

So far I am happy with it, and impressed with the quality and simplicity once installed, and the look is growing on me now also.

Do you have any photos of how the roof top tent attatches to the rack?

I'm curious to see if I can get their roll bar mounts without the rack. Reason being, that day to day, I have to get into low parking decks and garages. So I'm looking for a rack that I can remove easily, like the Rhinorack track system, but also attaches to the roll bar for strength. my other idea was to use Maximus-3s mounts with someone else roof tracks. This looks super OEM though which is nice.

Wondering the same thing. I like the mounting but would like option to use a larger rack such as the Maximus-3, AEV, Rhino. Would be interested to know if the t nut spacing on the hard top mounts would accommodate horizontally mounted rails.

I've resisted a rack for several years now but see the need growing but don't want to run one all the time.

I went a bit different route and mounted my RTT on the cross slats. I had to make a spacer and custom width plates to go over the cross slats so the tent didn't rub on the outer rails. pretty slick, but I need to trim the mounting bolts just a hair as it it pretty tight between the slats and the roof. I believe you can flip the slats over and run them "upside down" to gain more clearance if needed.

I thought it looked kind of clunky to have the brackets hanging outside of the rails.

In the exact same boat. Talking to Teraflex about that. But the intsall is pretty complex. I'm not sure if it'd work. I basically want everything that goes inside the Jeep, and connect it to rails. The Maximus-3 rack is what I was going to get, but just the mounts are $500 and it doesn't seem easy to remove. If you tack welded the nuts to the interior brackets, it looks like it could be removed with 8 bolts.

Sweet Set up mounting to the slats! I feel your pain, that had to be a nightmare to get nuts started and tightened!

I have a full aluminum color 6 piece slat kit I would be willing to get rid of at a good price if you are looking to purchase a Nebo and want to save some money? I love the rack, but am moving my RTT to a trailer and primarily use the jeep to haul kayaks so I quick fist my Thule bars on to my Nebo rails for that, no need for the Nebo slats anymore the way I am running my set up. Shoot me a text if interested 402-630-4408.

the good thing about the hdpe spacers is that the tent slides around really easily till I get it tight. You can see in that pic, it sits right over the rib. I just moved it to get the nut started. However once it is located, you can't get the wrench over the bolt without some gymnastics. I still need to trim them. Really nice that CVT includes a ratcheting wrench with the tent. It would be "less fun" without it.

Has anyone mounted an awning to the nebo rack yet? If so, How?

I asked TF directly and they said they knew of no awning that would work with it

I can think of a few ways to use Rhino Rack brackets, spacers, and t-bolts to mount awnings of the sides or back on the Nebo slats.

These brackets could mount right on to the back most Nebo slat to put an awning off the back. Or a bracket could be made if it needed to be extended a little to clear the rear of the rails. Off the side of the rack a spacer could raise the bracket up to clear the rail. However I dont see a way to side mount the awning and a RTT. L brackets could also be used on the back or side but the awning would have to be held up to clear the rails.

If somebody in the Wasilla or Anchorage area has a Nebo slat we could play around a little.

These light brackets could be used on the front or back slat on a Nebo.

I mounted FrontRunner's quick-release RTT mount to the slats and it works amazing. The RTT clears the side rails perfectly. I had to use Thule's large T-nut in the middle channel of the slat as the mounting point. Couldn't be happier with this solution.
