Its about 2.5 to 3 inches above the hard top. Im considering ordering the jcr offroad roofrack to match the lines.
That’s why I ask. I have the JCR half roof rack and hoping it would match up height-wise.


If you order this and have other bed rails then the mopar ones, you will have to buy additional hardware. I have the builtright industries bed rail so the nut bar thats included will not work. Do not angle it like some youtubers did, go to homedepot and buy some 3/8 cone nuts. They are not expensive.
good heads-up for those that don’t and want this rack.

Is it possible to mount the kc gravity pro6 to the rack?

I wonder if im the only person that has spent a considerable amount of money on mods and have not touched the tires or suspension? …
No, you’re not. Same boat except I installed free Rubi Suspension take-offs and Rubi wheels/tires. So technically still stock suspension and tires.

figure I’ll upgrade as needed.

It measures 54 3/8” for rail to rail, so a 50” would fit. Would would need to make your own brackets.

I have yet to wound any lights to the rack because I don’t want to drill through the hardtop, and don’t want to run wires up to it externally. Still like the easy or top removal with no wires.

Well I finally installed the Tazer mini I bought back in October! Wow was that a bigger ordeal than it should have been. What a gong show trying to get those two plugs out!

Not by half. Over $2K in bumpers, $500 on tube doors, $300 on a cover, $200 on a tool box, Bed extender, lights,The shorty antenna... It all adds up!

So, not technically 'Today' (we've been getting a home remodel completed this week) but last Saturday, finally installed my HotHead Headliners.

Temp difference in the JTR is significant... sound deadening (sound assassin strips) is actually pretty impressive with the windows up. However, being that I tend to drive with windows down most of the time, in the summer... don't know how much it'll help for that ;)

I absolutely miss the dead pedal i had on my Wrangler, I almost pushed the buy button on the quadratech one a week or so ago. The only thing that held me back was the delay. Hearing that you got and like it though, and not being able to find anything else that looks as good makes me realize I should have just ordered it. I would be a week closer now to having it...
I’m about six weeks in… Just hoping the next update email is a tracking #.

Took off the silver accents to the grille and added black ones. Much easier mod than I had anticipated.

Looks really good. Did you remove and paint or did you buy black versions? Thanks

Well, I'm back home for the first time in a few weeks, so I finally got the chance to install my Tazer mini. Between the thread about it causing brake lockups, and everyone talking about how hard it is to work the plugs, I was a bit worried.
Maybe I just got lucky.
Maybe it's because I was once the designated "heater core mechanic" back when I was younger, skinnier, and more flexible.
Whatever the case, it only took about 20 seconds to install, and not much longer to configure. Longest part was waiting for the full reboot and 2 sleep cycles. So far it seems to be working fine, but I haven't left the driveway yet.

Stuck on these little mirrors from Amazon I’ve seen others post. Actually do provide a little extra visibility, way better than no mirrors at all. Figured for so cheap would be nice to have if I’m ever out and about and pull the doors without my Rugged Ridge Trail mirror with me.

Legally don’t need side mirrors here if you have the main rear view, but I found quickly I much prefer having them ha. Still really happy with the Rugged Ridge mirror, but these were just a cheap cool looking backup. Plus the way the vent spins around, can be totally hidden too.

Datin fabrification canopy cage. I also ordered the 270 degree awning mounts and handles for it. This rack is huge, in hindsight i might of went with a smaller cheaper rack but i wanted the option of getting a softopper if i wanted a full enclosure in the future. I intially wanted the RSI smartcap but having read that some people had quality and fitmint issues and the fact its a lot heavier, i decided on a bedrack instead.

Wow - that is huge. I bet you could use a Diamondback under that and still have it open most of the way. (Thats the Unicorn I am waiting for).
