Has anyone attempted to mount a Hannibal roof top tent to the factory LR3 roof rack? Just wanted to know if it can be done. Thanks!!!

Not sure. If you can compare the factory roof rack to a Thule crossbar system in length (width), crossbar shape and most importantly, strength, then yes probably.

I used a Thule something-50 crossbar, trimmed to fit within the rails of the Hannibal. Then I spliced bits from a Yakima rack system that look like U-bolt clamps that hold everything together.

Looks like this:
