Here's a couple of shots of what it looks like...





The rear tilt bracket slips inbetween the bumper and body and mounts to the frame using two factory bolts....



I'll try to take a few more pics from underneath to show this better.

Hey Eddie, on a 4 door (I think Burnsville Offroad had it on one of its Jeeps) can you tell if the cargo basket be mounted more towards the back instead of up front (just the thought of bars over my head when driving w/o the freedom panels on is not so inticing)?

Yes, it can be mounted anywhere on the rails if you choose to use the standard Bushman Steel Rack but after talking at length to John Hancock, owner of KargoMaster, I can tell you that they will be making a longer basket for the 4-doors as well.

Don't know for sure but was told it would be similar to their TJ/LJ rack now and I believe that they are well under a grand for everything.

Wow!!! I think I'm gettin sensor overload. It's unbelievable the amount of new cool stuff. I guess the manufactuers are listening to our needs. Now lets get all of these goodies out there for sale.

Very nice, I just need one with a ladder. Photography is a big hobby of mine and I'd like to get up on the top for another angle for shoots. lol

WOL, does it look like there will be any way to mount other baskets to the rails? I have a very nice yet completely unusable Yakima Mega Warrior basket with all sorts of goodies for it, that I would like to mount on the JK.

I really really like how they designed the mounting points. The no drill option is highly underated in my book. I'm keeping my JK as "clean" as I can, not drilling any holes, etc. Just on the off chance that maybe I can trade for a Rubi down the road, and take all my goodies with me.
