Remove the tent. Keep the freedom.

No buddy call. No tools. No standing on a tire with your arm elbow-deep under the rack.

Your tent comes off in just a few minutes, goes back on in the same spot every time.

How It's Possible

The Slipstream uses a 3-step quick release system. Just use your hands to twist the knob, pull the pins, and slide open the mount. The alignment is set once during the initial install. After that, it's a drop-and-drive: the tent seats into the same position every time without measuring or adjusting.

No tools required after the first setup. 

Before You Order: Confirm Your Setup

Take two minutes to verify before you buy.

1. Check your clearance.
You need to fit your hand underneath the rack to operate the mount. Minimum 3.5 inches of space between the tent mounting rail and the rack.

Try the credit card test: if a card's length fits between your tent and vehicle (see image 15), you're clear. If it's tight, you may request wing nuts at checkout, just add a note to your order and we'll throw some in. 

Not compatible with Rhino Rack Pioneer platforms, Gobi roof racks, or Sherpa, Prinsu, or other low-profile racks. Won't work with risers. 

2. Check your tent.
Look at your tent's mounting rail. Match the geometry to Option A, B, or C in the product images. Use the tent picker to confirm your option.

3. Check your crossbar.

Fits rectangular cross bars:

| Dimension | Min | Max |
| Height | 0.75″ | 2.1″ |
| Width | 0.75″ | 3.3″ |

Have a wider cross bar? There's a Wide Bar Fit Kit for that.

Fits round tube cross bars: 1.1″ – 2.1″ outside diameter.

Product Key Features

• Quick-release and disconnect
• Low profile — no height added to the tent
• Compatible with most racks: round tubular, rectangular, and brand-specific crossbars
• Drop-and-drive install — tent alignment is set once with the fixed side of the mount
• No tools required after initial install
• Locking feature with 1/2″ hitch pins (sold separately)

Important: Slight variations in tent rails may require minor modifications for a proper fit. The parts are stainless steel — they won't rust if trimmed or ground down.
