Looking for a way to load or unload your Rooftop Tent by yourself. This is how I do it. This took me about 12mins real time to unload. Mounting it is obviously in reverse of this.
I built this platform out of 2 - 10' long 2x4"s. It is 2' wide with support pieces. I have 2 heavy duty angled L brackets that 'connect' to my Front Runner roof rack. I lay a blanket down to prevent it from scratching the rack. These angled brackets keep the platform from pulling off of the rack. I have a giant U Bracket in the base. I connect an electric hoist to the U bracket and raise it up. I use the ladder as a support piece just to take stress off of the hoist cable and also keeps it from swinging. On my rack I have 1x3" wood pieces that sit on the slats. Once I pop the tent loose from the quick release mounts it slides on top of these pieces across the rack on to the platform. I then slowly push the tent down the platform. After I get it to a nice point, I lower the platform with the hoist and let gravity do the rest.

The tent is a CVT - Cascadia Vehicle Tent Mt Shasta.

The time-lapse video that was 12 secs originally but that was too quick, so I slowed it down to 25secs.
