Question:

Can I use the Napier 82000 suv tent with the swing arm of the exo extended? Is it possible to have the hitch swung outside the sleeve of the tent so that I can use the table and storage box?

Expert Reply:

Yes, you can use the Napier 82000 suv tent with the Yakima EXO Swing Away Camp Kitchen and Enclosed Cargo Carrier item # Y86AV. You will just need to mount your tent off center towards the drivers side so you have enough room for the swing arm to fully extend.

The Swing arm for all of the Yakima systems you were looking at item # Y34ZR, item # Y86AV and item # Y54ZR extends out 29" from the center of the hitch pin towards your passenger side. You will want to make sure you set your tent up within this.
