Bike + Kayak + Rooftop Tent? Probably can't be done, right?

I'm trying to figure out how to mount a Kayak, Bike, and a Rooftop Tent on my Tacoma.

I don't think it's possible. The only way I could think maybe would be to have a riser on the kayak so that it floats ABOVE the tent.

This is isn't going to be a small kayak so I need to make sure it's accommodated properly.

Would LOVE advice here because really not sure what I want to do.

Having the bike, kayak and tent would rock my world!

 

Hey Kevin,

Our TRUSS is a great platform for roof top tents. You can also add our BR Bike mounts to the sides to hold up to two bikes (one per side). From there, you could just strap your kayak to the tent using the integrated tie down points in our TRUSS Legs.

Consider your world rocked!

 

Just mount the kayaks on the side of the truck, where the door pulls are? Good lashing point.

 

I could do it pretty easy on my truck. My RTT is low on the bed, have bike trays on my prinsu

 

Use a bed rack. Put the tent on top, bike on the side (take off the front wheel) and the kayak in the bed with the gate down


Edit: or get a bed rack for the tent and a roof rack for the bike with the kayak still in the bed

 

Kayak on roof, low profile bars over bed for tent, trailer hitch mount for bike

 

Here's a strange thought - buy a trailer. Then you can carry all of that and more and never compromise your trucks suspension.

 

This ^^

 

Hitch mount for the bikes, RTT on a bed rack and kayak on a roof rack over the cab.

 

Before I had a roof rack, I just used the standard kayak foam blocks and put it right on the RTT. I strapped it to the bed rack.


After a roof rack, I still used the foam blocks.


But I only take a rigid kayak when I have a friend coming along. Otherwise, I pack my Oru kayak in the back seat or truck bed.
