So I was just packing up the RTT to take a short trip this weekend and had this happen on my GFC SuperLite, same as described here: Torn strap on Superlite - https://forum.gofastcampers.com/t/torn-strap-on-superlite/10012

This seems a common enough problem that they came out with an external strap kit, now out of stock. I sent their support a message yesterday but no response yet. I don't suspect they'll be willing to do much given its been more than 2 years at this point and they already replaced the entire tent fabric once under warranty.

This was my temporary fix, just a maxtrax strap looped back on itself along with a g hook harvested from the previous failed tent fabric until I can come up with something more permanent. I'd be curious to know if anyone on here has seen a similar failure, and if so what your fix was.

Quick update - support just got back to me and they're going to send out a set of those external straps, I guess they've still got some stashed away. Will report back here once those get in and I have them installed
