Are these all bolt on with NO drilling involved? I'm not looking to drill holes in the body or top of my Jeep.

For my gobi It's not that bad. It's very tolerable and the wind deflector helps. Just turn up the volume higher on the radio lol

How much height does the wild boar rack and the garvin rack add? I would really like to get one in the future but I think I will be parking outside from now on if I do.

I spoke with a guy in Vegas with a Boar rack. I believe he said it added approx 5"s to the Jeep height at the A pillar.

I plan on ordering a Boar Fastback Rack when my trailer sells. It will be mounted lower on the Jeep, than designed. Easy mod, to fit just above my ORH top; probably save 3"s.

Did it install easy and fit tight? I've considered purchasing one for my rack. Wondering if it would rattle while on the trail.

Thank you for the kind words! and yup, they're the rock hard Gerry can holders, fit perfectly no modifications they just bolt right up to the XRC.
