Is the load capacity of the Rhino-Rack of 220 lbs. the dynamic weight? My roof top tent weighs 175 lbs. and I weigh 175 lbs., not including my dogs and another person.

Yes Doug, the weight capacity of the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack for Factory Tracks # Y02-480B-NT is the dynamic weight capacity. When stopped the weight would be supported by the axles and will be much higher.

Hey Doug, how did things go once you loaded your roof top tent on the Rhino-Rack? It’d be great to hear if the setup handled the weight the way you expected. Your update could make it easier for the next person planning a similar setup.
