Thule Luggage Carrier Option
Recently installed a Thule Rear Luggage Carrier to the back of my JK. I needed that extra cargo space for those long trips and did not want to install my Hard Top

I goota have that. Where did you get it?
How much did it cost?
How much football gear will it hold?
Does it add any extra weight to the tire carrier?
Are those 37's?
Will it open and close easily or is the spare in the way?
Oh, and what site did you use for the thumbnail view?

I purchased it on line I think it cost approx 700.00. It does swing open so I can get to the back of the truck. It's great for Football Tailgating and holds around 15 cases of Beer with Ice. It hooks up the the rear trailer Hitch which adds no weight to the tire carrier. It ways around 50 lbs unloaded

Actually the one I have is the thule Terrapin. The difference between the Terrapin and the 665c is that the Terrapin swings away to allow access to the rear of the truck. The 665c just folds down. The Terrapin was like 540.99 plus around 90 bucks for shipping ordered through the rackattack.com

After I posted I realized I was wrong because yours looks like it swings away.
Who painted it? I'd love to get one done detonator yellow for my 2-door. We can use all the space we can get...
