This turned out pretty cool -- I chose it among other options as it does not require additional drilling in order to install.

I have nothing on it yet, but I pretend to be a photographer and mounting my rather large mirrorless camera to the top seemed like a really good solution as well as other options the Molle provides.

The sunshade is an Alienshade and it works well installed atop the shelf and no issues with either running with Freedom Tops on or off.... or the in between part when you need to attach or remove them.

Highly recommend if you're drilling averse -- I did see options I may have preferred if I didn't mind drilling, but this is going to work perfect for me -- and I have some molle pouches on order for even more space.

Just an unsolicited review! Thanks.

Looks good. Interested in how this mounts. Does it fasten to the treaded holes in the ROP that the Mopar Grab Handles use?

So, my big secret here is I'm a total idiot about some of this -- like I don't know what ROP means, nor do I know what the Mopar Grab Handles use -- The only quirky part for me was on the rear, you had to remove the Freedom Top Latches and the Molle Shelf sits on the outside of those with the existing mounting hardware. For the sides, there are two large holes in the frame (where it might make sense to put some grab handles), but I don't believe they were threaded in any way. -- nevertheless, those are the holes used to mount the sides. The installation made use of bolts washers and nuts -- I would assume if I needed grab handles and those where the holes I needed them to occupy, this could co-exist with some trial and error.

Hope that helps -- if you go to the website,. you can download the pdf install.

Those large holes are meant for the soft top, they support the railing system, so things that use or cover those holes are incompatible.

i really like the rear setup- I’ll add this one day… I don’t know for the rear that I would have much use other than mymedic first aid kit.

The front I could see a really sweet radio setup!

This is one of the first interior mods we made when we got our JT. It has been great. My wife loves the fact she can put things above and they are not on the floor. Super high positives from us.
