Dynamic (road) weight rating is 200lbs. Static and jarring off-road weight limits are at your discretion.
Please note: vehicle will handle and wheel very differently with high loads on the roof. We recommend securing kayaks, canoes, and items that may generate resistance or lift at speed properly to the front and rear of the vehicle, not just the rack.
Rack Dimensions
51" wide x 72" long
2.5" above the tallest portion of the roof
We recommend using paint protection film under the front and rear fairings, where they contact the vehicle. This will prevent dirt and debris from scratching the paint over time.

Q Thomas • 12/09/2020, 8:18:09 PM I really like this roof rack design, but I own a WJ not an XJ. My question is will you guys ever offer a roof rack for the WJ. If not would I be able to custom order a narrowed down XJ rack from you? Thanks.
A 12/10/2020, 11:17:58 AM No sorry, we don't offer custom racks. WJ rack maybe in the future, but no idea on timeline.
Q max • 12/20/2020, 1:54:38 AM Is the roof rack compatible with a KC light bar?
A 12/23/2020, 5:13:09 PM We have not tested that, you probably couldn't run the fairing at all with the KC bar.
Q Zach • 12/29/2020, 9:48:03 PM You guys state that the dynamic (road) weight rating is 200lbs. Static and jarring off-road weight limits are at your discretion. What is the weight capacity for the rack when the vehicle is not moving? Would it be able to support a 150 - 190lb rooftop tent with two grown adults and a dog while stationary?
A 12/30/2020, 4:42:59 PM We haven't had any issues on our Jeep with that much stationary weight, but you need to be sure that your rain gutter pinch welds are in good shape.
Q Mitchel Ferguson • 01/04/2021, 10:58:34 PM What's the width and height of an individual cross bar? And how much space is roughly between the bottom of the cross bars and roof? I wanted to check if some Thule ski rack mounts can be mounted to the rack
A 01/07/2021, 1:01:36 PM Bars are 2 x 1" There is about an 1-2" of space under them depending on where you are mounting a rack.
Q Eric L Hansen • 01/13/2021, 10:14:00 PM What is the weight capacity? I'm looking for one I can sleep on with my wife under the stars.
A 01/15/2021, 4:50:14 PM We don't have an official weight capacity of the XJ's rain gutters, but we and our customers have used these racks with Roof Top Tents without issue.

by far the most attractive looking roof rack on the market, pretty easy to build and install. i had some trouble figuring out how to mount the rooftop tent to this, with it being a hardshell it sits very close to the rack but with the JCR RTT mounts and taking the front and back off of the roof rack i was able to mount it all by myself relatively easily. for the money and quality this roof rack is 100% worth it. its everything they say it is and more.

Great looking rack. I really like the low profile. My old rack was ten inches tall and this one is only 6. I ordered several accessories with it too - love the versatility.

Good hardware and quality. If anyone else is curious this will cleat the jcr gutter mount light bar mounts with no issues

This rack is perfect! Installation was a breeze, it’s perfect for my RTT! Love it!
Jesse (Ga) | July 11th, 2021
This is a great rack as the other reviews suggest! The only problem I had with the rack is on the older body style Xj’s the rear hatch hinges stick up about a 1/4 of an inch. This lead to the rear part of the rack to not sit flush and create noise while driving. This was not a major issue and all I had to do was notch the metal a bit in order to get everything to fit correctly but it is something to keep in mind.

Awesome roof rack and very light weight! Highly recommend for your XJ. Best rack out there!
Ray (Gilbert AZ) | December 24th, 2020
Wow... just as I expected, just wow. This is the only rack to buy for your XJ. I put it together by myself and got it on the XJ by myself. Super strong, lots of add-on options! Sits low, no wind noise, looks great, ETC ETC. Would I buy it again? HELL YA...My only complaint is the price, its over 200 more than a JL rack that is nearly the same.. I paid $819.00 (w/cutout) then it went down 85 dollars within 2 days!! Overall, happy...

The title says it all. Design, looks, strength, quality, functionality, you name it and this rack exceeds expectations. It is even quiet when driving down the highway. High quality and made in the U.S.A. I will definitely purchase from JCROffroad in the future.

I should probably save most of my comments for the Adventure Imports Blog Article, but....finally, FINALLY someone is building equipment as beautiful as XJ's themselves!
This rack goes together super easy, looks sleek and is quiet with the windows down at highway speeds!
My fatass walked around on it so I know it's a strong rack! ;)
Great work fellas!

Still waiting on a roof tent for mine, but I hear great things. There is zero wind noise or drag, my MPG has stayed the same. Fits amazon 42" rigid horse light bar perfectly. No light hits the hood at all. Same price as most "basket" style racks, just as strong but none of the drawbacks. Personally I think this rack looks better than basket racks on XJ's. Took about 2 hours to install. Overall great product.
