Roof Racks

[Project YETI]

So the question is who runs them and what pros and cons do you have? I am torn between a Gobi Stealth rack or the new Backbone system by Rhino Rack with the Pioneer platform.

That Backbone looks interesting. I would also throw the new LoD into the mix.

LOD sliding roof rack...

 

[Project YETI]

I like the idea of the LOD Sliding rack but it seems like a lot of extra weight and bulk. Anyone on the Forum have experience with one?

Does the rhino rack have an option to work without a hardtop?

No MTG it doesn't that is probably the biggest downfall.

I still think the gobi stealth is the best looking rack. I don't know about function but on looks alone, gobi.

If I buy a roof rack it will be the lod slider!! Yup.

It wouldn't be difficult to fab it up to work on the cage. Not with the soft top though. The awning tent combo is interesting.

 

[JK LYF]

Interested as well. Wondering if it's difficult to wheel with while cargo is strapped to rack.

Why don't we just "fab" something up for a Yakima Warrior rack, make it work with the bikini top and call it a day? :idontknow:

Works for me. Pick your poison, barrel clamps that match your cage or some simple "L" brackets to make pseudo rain gutters.

Pick your poison…I'll drop if off and leave you my CC #. :cheesy:
