Sherpa Rooftop Tent Mounts — The Strongest Link Between Your Rack and Your Rest
A rooftop tent is a significant investment in your overland comfort, and how you secure it to your vehicle is critical for safety and peace of mind. The Sherpa Rooftop Tent Mounts are engineered to provide a rock-solid, low-profile connection between your tent and your Sherpa "Peak Series" roof rack. Designed to replace the flimsy, universal brackets that come standard with most tents, these mounts offer a precision-fit solution that eliminates rack "creak" and ensures your tent stays exactly where you put it, even on the most technical washboard roads.
Proudly made in the USA (Colorado), these mounts are laser-cut from high-strength aluminum and finished in a durable black textured powder coat. While standard tent mounts often use thin steel plates that can bend or rust over time, Sherpa’s 1/4" thick aluminum construction is built to handle the heavy static loads of multiple occupants while remaining lightweight and completely corrosion-resistant. This is the "Adventure with Confidence" standard applied to your sleeping quarters.
Low-Profile Stability & Modular Fit
One of the biggest advantages of the Sherpa Tent Mounts is their low-profile design. By sitting closer to the crossbars than universal mounts, they help lower your vehicle's overall center of gravity and reduce wind drag. The slotted mounting holes provide maximum adjustability, allowing you to position your tent perfectly on the rack—whether you want it centered for weight distribution or shifted to one side to make room for an awning or recovery gear. The mounts utilize Sherpa’s T-slot modularity, sliding easily into the crossbar channels for a fast and secure setup.
Designed for Extreme Loads
Off-roading with a rooftop tent subjects your mounting hardware to constant vibration and stress. Sherpa Tent Mounts are specifically engineered to distribute these forces across a larger surface area of the crossbar, preventing damage to the rack extrusion. Whether you are running a lightweight hardshell or a massive 4-person soft-shell tent, these brackets provide the structural integrity required for both high-speed highway travel and slow-speed rock crawling. The kit comes with 100% stainless steel hardware to ensure that your mounting system remains maintenance-free for years to come.
Simple, Secure Installation
Installation is designed to be a "one and done" process. These mounts bolt directly to the bottom rails of your rooftop tent and then slide into the T-slots of your Sherpa crossbars. This eliminates the need to reach into tight gaps with a wrench, which is a common frustration with standard mounting kits. The mounts are sold as a set of four (4), providing all the necessary hardware to fully secure one rooftop tent to your rack system.
