Hi all,

I have a XXL James Baroud, and I am trying to get it mounted on my Gladiator. ssrgeof showed me the down 2 mob channel where the guy has a roof height rack with some standoffs (lift kit).




While I have found the rack, I haven't been able to find the standoffs to lift the tent over the cab.

I found the Fab Fours Overland Rack (https://www.quadratec.com/p/fab-fours/overland-rack-jeep-gladiator-jt) which looks like it may work, but there is a forum post here that says they may have rust issues and they are pretty expensive.

Are there any other racks which I should consider? Alternatively, are there any solution for standard cab height racks I should think about?

Thanks!

Leitner Racks - not cheap, but great quality and will get the rooftop tent above the cab. I have a Roofnest Condor XL and the Leitner Rack brings it over the cab.

I second Leitner. I had one before I moved to a GFC. Going with an open bed build, Leitner is the way to go.

Tuwa Pro rack. Sets up below at or above cab height. Not my Gladiator. But I have one on mine.

Another vote for Leitner. I have a Freespirit Odyssey RTT that extends over the cab.
