Roof top tent with four OEM cross bars

The van came with two so it’s not strong enough for a roof top tent. Can I add two more OEM ones so share the weight? I can access OEM ones

What is the weight rating of the roof itself?

The roof can support weight of the car in the physical world. I’m not looking for OEM books advice here.

I am solving the weak point which are the OEM crossbars It’s either getting Thule crossbars or if possible adding 2 or more OEM crossbars for support a 180lbs tent with solar.
