Roller System

A set of four (4) rollers to aid when installing or removing your TENT031 or other cumbersome items on/off your roof rack. Bolt two (2) rollers on the last slat of your rack. The combined slat for a Slimline II Kit or the last slat on a Slimsport Kit. The other two (2) rollers bolt towards the front of your rack. Place the rollers one (1) slat behind the installed TBMK020* sold separately. The rollers have an adjustable height of 53mm/2.1'' - 80mm/3.2'' from the top of the slat. When using the TBMK020, these rollers can accommodate tent tracks that are either flush with the base of the tent or up to 27mm high through their built in height adjustment. The rollers are unobtrusive and can be left on the rack with your TENT031. Made of high strength steel and finished in the same durable black powder-coating as the Front Runner racks.
Each roller has a HDPE outer sleave to prevent damage to high-value items.
The rollers can carry a load of 140kg/308lbs over all four (4) rollers.

NOTE: The Roller System will roll against your Roof Top Tent base.
If you own a tent other Front Runner's TENT031, ensure that it has a hard base that would support its weight on the roller.

Travel. Dream. Design. Build. Test. Evolve. Repeat.

Legend has it that Front Runner was conceived between a 1988 Land Cruiser 70 and a 1992 Mercedes G-Wagen in Botswana, around a campfire, near a majestic Baobab, amongst elephant tracks, by a handful of friends from South Africa with backgrounds in engineering, design, manufacturing and off-road racing. After suffering through numerous equipment failures on their expeditions around the world, they decided to take their shared passion for vehicle based adventure travel and dream up new, smart gear and build it stronger than… well, as they put it, “stronger than the elephants at the watering hole 1 klick over.”

And just like that, before the moon gave way to the sun, we were born.

With the gruelling African bush as a testing ground, we at Front Runner focused on a tough love approach to developing products. With both feet facing the future and little sentimentally for mediocre ideas of the past – common approaches to off-road vehicle product design were quickly jettisoned in favor of innovation, new materials, and superior manufacturing practices.

Today our products have a well deserved reputation (if we don’t say so ourselves) for quality, intelligent design, and durability. Our manufacturing facility just outside of Johannesburg, South Africa features in house laser cutting, bending and powder coating. Our CAD designed products by a team of engineers and built by skilled craftsman in our ISO-9001 : 2015 Certified factory.

Our roof racks, water tanks, tents, awnings, drawer systems and camping accessories are enjoyed, used and abused around the world by casual campers, the U.N., overlanders, NGOs, outdoor enthusiasts and extreme athletes.
