I did a site search and and posted in the modified forum and didn't see much, so I'm starting a new thread here. Looking for a full-size (covers all or most of the top) roof rack for a 2011 rubi unlimited. I like the kind that secure to the frame of the jeep, instead of the plastic top gutters or the kind that you have to drill into your top.

So far I've only found the Gobi rack, but I'm not spending $1400+ for something I won't use all that often. The smittybilt src is the right price, but too small. I want to be able to do a roof tent and sleep on it.

Thanks for any suggestions!

 

Kongo Kage
Body Armor Roof Rack
Garvin


Those are off the top of my head. Gobi seems to be gold standard. Body Armor is also sold under JC Whitney name. It is ok but is a bit bulky.

Do a search on here and you will see lots of pics.

 

I've got the Kargo Master Congo Cage and love it so far. With the full rack and cross bars you'll still be around 700 but that's a lot better than 1400. I know the gobi gets amazing reviews but the Congo Cage is not bad. I went that route because I already had the cross bars and adapter from a previous vehicle so I was only into the rack for $360 at 4wheel Parts. Here's a pic to show you my setup.

I absolutly love my gobi rack on my 2 door. I dont use it that often but love that it is there when i need it. Have also heard good things about the MBRP rack

 

Do you leave it on all the time or only when you use it?

 

GOBI Ranger rack on my JKU. I love it. If you want a rack you can sleep on, this is it.

 

I went Congo cage $364... And a range rover Garvin basket of Craigslist. Total about $650.

 

That looks sweet! I got lucky and found my GOBI rack used off Craigslist for wicked cheap.

 

Nice. Jeep looks sweet... I hunted for months before getting mine. If I could of scored a Gobi or Wildboar I would have... I gotta ask" wicked cheap".. I grew up in mass... Guessing you're originally from that area?
