THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS
Xtrusion Overland started supplying various brands that go hand in hand with our own products, to provide a complete service and help us grow. This includes products that are drop shipped. Please be advised that availability and lead times of those product are solely impacted by the third-party vendor's schedule. Many products are sold under an open inventory method, as the technology to sync inventories is limited, therefore please reach out if a specific product is needed by a specific date for us to double check with the supplier for you!
Any potential delay that occurs in the sourcing, processing, or drop shipment at the third party level will be communicated to the best of our ability to the customer.
ESTIMATED DATE | LEAD TIMES
The estimated lead time provided when you placed your order is JUST AN ESTIMATE. It is not a guarantee that the product will be shipped on that date. The estimated lead time gives you some sense of what the current times to source, cut, pack and ship takes. Many times the lead time can be shorter, but likewise it can extend, depending on factors such as previous demand and current supply. We manufacture many components in house, but extenuating circumstances such as down time for maintenance or unscheduled downtimes for repairs might impact dates as well as delays related to our sourced components. There is a constant flow of parts and shipments, and sometimes the visibility becomes a challenge to pinpoint exactly when your product will ship.
Feel free to check on your order at any time. Be aware that our customer service team may not be able to give you an exact date for completion but rest assured we are tracking your order and it will be built in the order that it was received.
Xtrusion Overland also reserves the right to cancel items from an order, offer an alternative substitution or issue refund accordingly when product is delayed at an unacceptable time frame or at the request of the customer.

THE PROBLEM
You're under the rack on one tire. Your shoulder is in a position it's not supposed to be in. You loosen the nut and the bolt head spins inside the tent rail.
The aluminum slider plate stripped.
It happens because the stock plates are soft aluminum. Repeated cycling deforms them. One over-torqued install does it instantly — the stainless hex head rotates through the aluminum ribs and now the plate can't hold the bolt anymore. The constraining feature is gone. The bolt spins free. You can't tighten it down. You can't loosen it off. You're stuck.
If you've ever stripped a slider, you know exactly what this feels like. The system isn't broken. The tent is fine. The mounts are fine. The cheap aluminum part in the middle of the stack failed.
THE SOLUTION
Replace the soft aluminum slider plates with 304 stainless steel laser-cut square washers. Add stainless steel M8 x 60 mm carriage bolts and flanged lock nuts. The system holds.
Kit includes:
- 304 stainless steel laser-cut square washers (the slider replacement)
- Stainless steel M8 x 60 mm carriage bolts
- Flanged lock nuts
The square neck of the carriage bolt nests inside the square hole of the laser-cut washer. The bolt can't spin. High-torque capacity. No more stripping.
The flanged lock nuts fix the second annoying problem — the loose flat washer that always drops out of your fingers right before you thread the nut on. The washer is built into the nut. One part instead of two.
What's not included: the metal mounting strap (flat bar). Re-use yours.
When to Buy This
If you remove or lock your roof top tent regularly, the stock aluminum plates are on borrowed time. Replace them before they strip — or replace them after, when you're trying to figure out how to get the tent off without cutting anything.
This upgraded hardware is included with The Slipstream quick-release mounts and The Gatekeeper locking mount.
