Spirit Install Info

Man installing rooftop tent on 4 runner

At Spirit of 1876, we offer experienced installation services for racks, roof top tents and most bolt on accessories for your car or truck.  Our staff is experts in configuring solutions specific for you and your build, for all your adventures from road trips to overland adventures. 

Install Pricing & Timing

Installs run $165/hour. Time varies by job:

  • Racks: 1–2 hours
  • Awnings: typically 1 hour
  • Truck caps: up to 4–5 hours
  • Rooftop tents: 1–3 hours, depending on the rack and tent combination

We do our best to quote the time upfront, but occasionally we run into complications mid-install that can add time.

We recommend booking an appointment for all installs. We install most products purchased from us, and if you bought elsewhere, we can often still help — just ask. If your install requires wiring, we work with trusted 12-volt partners. We're also happy to recommend other shops or partners for jobs outside what we handle directly.

We also offer full build consults including suspension upgrades, bumpers, armor, wheels and tires, storage solutions, lights, power, cooking and more.  

If you’re just getting started and have questions regarding your specific build or needs, feel free to reach out. You’re also welcome to make an appointment here for an in-person meeting or schedule a call.  We understand there’s a lot of choices and our goal is to streamline and simplify the process. By carrying all the top brands we’re qualified to discuss pros and cons to all, so you can feel good about making the best decision to adventure with confidence!
