I like that rack!!!

How do you like the Thule guttermount rack? Does it hold up well? Does it clip on well with the type of gutters we have on the hardtop? No drilling??? Last of all what was the cost???

Thanks,

This is from the post when I sold the rack.
300 Gutter Foot Pack (4) $135 original price
58" Load bars (2) $55 original price
XL Fairing $60 original price
Universal FlatTop 6 $130 original price - - - (holds 6 skis or 4 snowboards)
locks x 6 $56 original price
The rack mounted to the existing drip rails on the factory hard top. My only complaint, which is minor, is that the freedom panels creaked when rock crawling with the rack on. Regardless, the rack goes on and off quickly.

That's the exact same set up I have, but mine is a 2 door.

you guys with the gutter mounts get any water leakage? How about when at speed in the rain? Wondering how the bad the flex is on the freedom top at speed with racks.

No issues yet but I just had the gutter mount and cargo box on for only a week. No leaks, rattles or seal problems to report even took it at highway speeds a few times and no issues.

It never even occurred to me to get gutter mounts. I've been putting my boards in the back.
