Exposed Racks Hardtop Roof Rack Reviews
Installed on a 2017 JKU , 4 door. Quick delivery, all parts included ,easy installation. Was concerned about the strength of the drip rail. Tied down 2 , 10 foot kayaks, side by side. Wasn't sure they would both fit , but still had several inches between them. The rack seemed well built and sturdy. No issues on a 30 mile trip. Was on windy roads at 60 MPH tops, so I'm not sure about highway speed, but all was secure and no wind noise. Looks pretty good too ! 5 stars so far, we'll see how it holds up
Questions
From the manufacturer instructions:
"IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE INSTALLER/USER TO DECIDE WHERE AND HOW MUCH WEIGHT
TO DISTRIBUTE IN ANY ONE LOCATION."
"WEIGHT CAPACITY IS LIMITED TO JEEP’S MAXIMUM STATIC AND DYNAMIC WEIGHT LIMITS. WHEN PUTTING LOAD ON THE ROOF TOP, TAKE CAUTION TO ALWAYS DISTRIBUTE THE WEIGHT AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. USE COMMON SENSE WHEN INSTALLING AND CARRYING LOADS."
