JCR Half Rack Installed

[Oscar Indy]

Thanks for the pic.
Looks like the tent portion is fairly even with the top, but the ladder may prevent me from being able to pull into the garage.

What is the height to the top of the rack from the ground?

Mine fit in the garage when I had the stock tires on but haven't tested it since putting the 35's on lol. But I bet it's too tall now. Mine BARELY fits with my soft top back but it's too close for me lol. The soft top clip handle hooks rub against the rubber seal at the top of my door opening so that's a little too close for me.

Is it possible to mount some kind of cross bar on the half rack so i could use some of existing rack accessories, ie roof box, ski holder, etc?

Looks great! I have the same rack and love it. I installed some lighting on mine last week that turned out nice. Hooked up to the factory AUX switch makes it so easy!

do you mind showing how you attached the rtt please? one bolt per corner or two? did you use the plate that usually comes with the RTT's? I have my JCR half rack arriving on the 13th and just looking to be as ready as possible.

thanks

This rack looks great!

The biggest issue i have with ALL the racks i've seen is.. how do you guys keep stuff in the bed, under the rack... DRY?!

Are there any racks/half racks that perhaps allow some sort of vinyl cover to go over it to still keep your stuff in the bed dry ? Very few, if any racks work with the trifold or soft tonneau covers.

@Maximus-3 said they're looking into making covers for their overlanding rack: Maximus-3 Gladiator Build [SEMA 2019].

That would be sweet once available. I'm so surprised there has been little ask or attention to this.

I installed the same Access tonneau cover that jcr show's on their website. not 100% but really good protection against the rain snow and dust. like i said not perfect but im super happy with the combo.

Installed a @JcrOffroad half rack today. Very nice quality and easy installation, now I need to get some accessories

Looks awesome! Question though, what are the exterior dimensions once installed? Curious about overhang with a rtt. Thanks in advance!

Are you able to see out of rear view mirror at all?

Ditto... Would prefer the half rack over the full-height but concerned about being able to see out the rear view mirror.

I have since switched to a Road Armor rack, but yes you can still see behind you as long as you don't have anything hanging below or on top of the rack. I now have a spare hanging from the rack, and have come to rely on the Tazer feature which turns the rear view camera on whenever I use my blinkers.

Great. Thanks!

Hopefully the links work. If not I’ll try again.
These are the newer upgraded ones from the ones I have.
