I found these on Facebook. Hadn’t seen this set up previously.

Thats some major overhang off the back! Looks silly to me. Kinda like a car with a huge ass spoiler.
I put the overhang of my RTT over the cab and I think it looks much cleaner.
Just my opinion...

It's set up that way to have the new style of sagging in rear... :giggle:
That reminds me of how stupid it is seeing the younger generation with their pants hanging halfway off their ass or lower. I don't think they know that means where it started.:surprised:

He said if he moved it over the cab then he couldn’t open the soft top. Probably needs a taller rack.

It also does not seem safe to have that much of the RTT base unsupported. I cant imagine the manufacturer would sign off on that.

My wife and I have the same bed rack, or I assume we do as that looks like the JCR.

I raised it about 2.5-3.0 inches @ the top and that allowed me to put the tent over the cab by about 4-5-6 inches, this resulted in near zero overhang, maybe an inch at most when the tailgate is up.

I would recommend A) Raising the existing tent higher so you can go over the cab or B) Finding a new rack that is taller.

Good luck and have fun out there!
