RTT Ladder Hits Bed Rack

[Randolph_Actual]

Hey all! I have an OVS TMON tent on top of an RCI 18" bed rack. I have always just entered the tent from the back without issue, but with the addition of a 270 awning, I now need enter the tent on the passenger side. Problem is- the ladder rubs against the bed rack and where is rubs is soon to occupy some rotopax. I need to come up with a way to extend where the ladder mounts to the tent or find another solution.

Anyone have an recommendations for a new ladder mount or DIY solution? I know there are some Australian mounts, but cost of shipping and wait time exclude those from being viable. Thanks!

here is a folding ladder at Lowes for $118 and if you look at one of the positions it folds into, you'll see an "L" shape where the top can extend out a bit to kick the ladder way from your vehicle

This is a great idea, thank you! I was looking at ladder alternatives but never considered something like this. You may have solved my problem!
