I didn't order the RTT mounts - going to see if I can work a way to install regular cross bars that are multiuse (RTT, bikes, awning, etc...). I can always get the RTT mounts later on.

My thought was to just get it out of the way now and if I need other solutions for bikes and what not, I might be able to go off the RTT Mounts.

Reasonable course of action.

I think most stuff aside from a tent or awning would be too high on those mounts. Have some ideas for fixing a Yakima system into the perimeter holes.

have a neighbor who has a custom car shop and can fabricate some metal stuff if need be too.

Yeah, I noticed it sits a bit high, but we'll see how it is in person. It might be perfect...it might be hell. lol

Nick Ellis at ACE told me 3 weeks or so, last Thursday when I ordered.
Hopefully that will be my timeline as well. I ordered on Friday.

OK - I have mine on. Looks great. Photos soon.

But I have a question for the good folks here.

Do you think that the Yakima Overhaul HD system would be able to go on the top of the Upper Decker.

Here is the link to it: https://www.yakima.com/overhaul-hd-system

I think that, if you use the Tonneau Kit 1 to fit on top of the Upper Decker with the holes (https://www.yakima.com/tonneau-kit-1) and then put the Overhaul in there, it could work (as long as the bolt holes line up).

I might need to get different bolts to replace the ones that go in the rails, or I may not.

What do you think?
