Thanks. The switch/gauge/chuck panel pairs nicely with our on-board-air setup.
Dual Viair compressors, 2-gallon tank, and Maximus-3 mounting bracket/skid.
Can you elaborate on this? Where does the compress and tank mount?

Mounts under the truck.

Ahh. I see now. That pic, especially looking upside down was too much for my pee brain to process! Is the setup waterproof or water resistant then? I did see a vendor running an air tank fully underwater with remote breather advertising complete waterproof, was pretty cool.

I like what you've done there. Looking forward to seeing and learning more about your full rack system

We have yet to talk much about our OBA system. The dual 400 Viair pumps are water resistant when the filters are remotely located in a dry place. They fill a 2-gallon tank and then exit into multiple lines.
Great for airing up our 40" tires, and other air needs.

Love the bed rack. No way im drilling holes into my hard top to mount that rack tho. Ill look for a gutter mount
Thanks @billyjk7,
Maximus-3 makes some of the strongest and best designed rack solutions.

Drilling tends to scare a lot of people, but it's the only way to achieve the load capacity we provide. We have been drilling for years for years with zero issues.

A gutter mount is a much lower capacity. Personally I'd rather have a rack supported by hardened steel rather than fiberglass.

Be well and Jeep on.

The roof rack is sweet. Can the freedom panels still be removed independently from the hard top?

It would also be so easy to hook a hoist up to the roof rack and raise the top off the vehicle at the four corners.

(I never understood why they don’t make the hard tops with flush mounted D-Rings that you could just flip up and hook a hoist up to.)

On the rack, is there conduit to run the wires through if one wanted to add lights?

Do you have any pictures of the light wiring you did on your SEMA vehicle? I’d like to see how the wiring was ran once the wires are inside the roof. You’d have to have some quick disconnects for the roof to come off.

Yes with our roof rack the freedom panels remain removable.
And yes there are different provisions for running wires.

Really nice looking rack system!

Looking at the photo below it appears that the roof rack overhangs the existing freedom panels. Given this I don't think there would be any place to allow the Sunrider for Hardtop to fold into when it was open.
