Jermack Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 Couldn't get the answer from the dealership or online chat w/ Ford. Does anyone know the Static Load Max for the TC? The Wagon shows 165 lbs, which must be the dynamic number... can't seem to find the max for a static load. We are planning on putting a rooftop tent on our TC, so I would love to know this number.

mrtn Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 If you use all 8 mount points you can load a lot on it. I have seen full size work platforms with detachable ladders mounted on TC/PSA/FCA vans. The longitudinal roof arches (not the middle) are designed to withstand rolling over so the load is not an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrm223 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 I've walked around on my roof a couple times when I didn't have a ladder handy and it really didn't buckle much at all under my weight (190lbs), which would be a localized point-load. I also didn't stand specifically on the cross-supports, either, but the open corrugated panel. So, I'd think if your rails have at least 4 connection points supporting the RTT, and of course those would be on the strongest part of the roof, it'll hold up to y'all's weight inside without any problem.
