How Far Do I Install the Swagman Roamer Roof Rack from the Edge of My Camper?

Published 05/27/2021

Question:

to install a rack on the top of a pop up I know you have to drill and the rack is permanent. So what goes on the inside and how far from the edge of the camper do you have to come in for the feet? Have any images from the inside looking at the ceiling for this rack?

After you drill into your camper to install the Swagman Roamer LT Roof Rack for Pop-Up Campers and Camper Shells # S80510, there are three things that will go underneath (on the inside) of the camper: the metal plate, a washer, and a nut.

As far as the distance for the feet from the end of the camper, the instruction manual recommends to get as close to the edges of the top as possible. I went ahead and attached a picture from the instruction manual that shows this. It is step #4.

Fortunately, we do have a photo of what the inside looks like on the installation. I went ahead and attached the picture to this question.
