Does anyone know of a 1/2 or maybe 3/4 roof rack that will straddle the front and rear cabs?

I ditched my Sunrider and thought the JCR half rack I had laying around would work but it would need some serious modifying.

thanks for any ideas

Sherpa Equipment, their rack is a two piece that can be mounted together or separate and they have TSTN special as well for use with over the cab canopies

How is that rack for wind noise? My interior is loud enough but I need a rack to carry a starlink plus a Ham and GRMS antenna's

I didn't notice any increase in wind noise at all. Right now I just have four maxtraxs mounted. With two rotopax with water in them mounted directly over the sound bar, it did interfere with my satellite radio reception. The antenna is mounted on the sound bar and if you use SiriusXM a lot you may want to move the antenna first or just use your starlink.

Nope no SiriusXM I have about 4600 songs on the thumb drive.
Thanks, I saw the Sherpa Moonlight that would work but boy is it $$$. You have a side picture shoring yours..if its the 25" version? Their webpage just shown the longer versions.

I called Motobuilt but they say the half rack can't be used in front??
Could get the full size and cut it down..

Thanks GI Grandpa,
I will be ordering the moonlight rack. Did you reroute the XM? If so where did you put it. I’ve ordered what I need for a reroute however I was going to use the Maximus-3 bracket but that might not work so I might have to go under the cowl.

also would you be able to measure the height of the rack from the bottom of the drip rail to the base of where a case would be mounted? I’m trying not to go to much above my tent.

thanks again Sherpa wasn’t even in my radar.

Just looked at a new one...https://trailrax.com/products/trailrax-modular-roof-rack-for-the-jeep-gladiator?variant=43575578591399 seems better built , distributes the weight better and better price.
