Reader Question - Jeep Roof Rack

I enjoyed your article very much. I also noticed that you have a roof rack on the hardtop of your Jeep, could you please let me know the make and model of rack and how do you attach the rack to the fiberglass hardtop.

These are the two items I used – a regular THULE rack and an "artificial rain gutter" to mount it. It required drilling through the hardtop and using rubber sealant to ensure water tightness. Thus far, it’s been through some serious rain and carried quite a load. The Unlimited’s hardtop has some extra cross members running horizontally that I placed the rack against for added support.

You may also find this article helpful. It was written to describe how to build your own equipment rack to avoid spending hundreds of dollars. I have a GPS, a PA System, a CB and a Satellite Radio mounted on mine.
