Just to follow up, I won't know until Xmas but the crossbars showed up last night and they look good. For the price I found them for I think it's really really hard to complain! We'll likely cut them down narrower for the Jeep but I'll leave that decision up to my Dad once I give them to...

Found a used set of the crossbars in the first reply to my original post with keys and original packaging for $25 shipped! Done and they're on their way!

Yes, he doesn't need an actual rack per say. Just wants the crossbars so that he can strap some longer items up on top on occasion. Light lumber, 6'-8' aluminum a-frame ladder, stuff like that...

After I posted I found some detailed pictures of how they secure and didn't realize they were somewhat of a universal setup. That's totally fine for what my Dad wants to be able to use them for. In my searches before posting I saw lots of info on building your own and if it was my Jeep I...

What year is yours? All the reviews are talking about the '08+ Liberty, is there any difference that you know of? Just want to ensure these would work with an '07 before pulling the trigger.

That's pretty much EXACTLY what I'm looking for. I'd seen a few of them online but wanted to verify they would work as it's not my vehicle and I honestly am not even sure what the factory bars running front to back look like. That price range is perfect too for the budget. Was hoping to keep...

Hey everyone, I don't own a KJ but my parents do. They have an '07 and my Dad has mentioned a couple times how he wishes he had a rack of some sort up on the roof to be able to strap down a couple light pieces of lumber on occasion to haul. I'm not talking construction work status but like 5...

BTW, the finished project results in two mounting holes drilled in the plastic bumper and that's it visually as far as modifications go. Everything else is 100% completely hidden underneath the bumper and the light is mounted very solid and securely. Just mounting to the bumper it would likely...

Gyro, thanks again for those pictures above! Last week we pulled the bumper off the jeep... Well actually let me try to write out what we did, I was focused on just getting it mounted and done rather then taking pictures so all I have is the finished shot. This is off memory so forgive me...

My Dad just bought his KJ about a month ago. We test drove a CRD and both really liked it! A bit "dieselly" sounding at idle but man it was nice. Difference of $500 on the selling price kept the deal from happening though. I was bummed, it was super nice with some nice mods to it. My dad...

A lot of the picture links on that thread are broken and not showing for me but from the ones I can see that thing is RAD!!! The width honestly looks nicer then I mentally pictured/expected! BTW, I haven't said it but the whole "I love non traditional built rigs concept..." FYI I daily...

Awesome! Will be neat to see how it turns out! Really simple curiosity question... How do you plan on addressing the fenders and tire coverage or will this be more of a rock buggy type deal in the long run where tires way outside of the body work won't be of concern? Simply picturing what a...

LOL, the helium I use is pretty exotic and unfortunately isn't cheap! :happy175: I'm 100% all for people doing something like the OP wants and would love to see a legit attempt! Heck, I'd offer up any bit of advice I could for a legit build build even no matter what the platform is! I...

Oh man! Huge thanks for that picture with the bumper off! That sealed the deal! I just wanted to make sure there was something other then just a plastic bumper to mount off of. I'll check out that light bar also and then decide if I want to just make one myself or spend the money on that one...

Sounds easy enough... That's somewhat what I expected but not knowing at all what's hiding under the stock bumpers I wasn't sure if it would be as simple as that. I'm definitely not afraid to cut out some plate and weld in something to support it, just wanted to make sure something was under...
