i always search for roof rack photos on here and on the LOST site, but can never find as many as i want. i cant decide which rack i want, so post up all your racks! (haha racks ;) )

it would be cool if they made this a sticky. but if there is already a thread like this, go ahead and delete it.

icon996.gif Pictures can be deceiving. It's just the shadowing and reflection.

I'd show mine buy Grey has the exact setup that I do. It looks like from the picture that he has longer cross bars than I do. I can't remember the length but I've got the shortest that Yakima makes, I believe.

You know they should be standard, but DC likes to cut costs, just two days ago they were ******** about how japanese makers make way too much profit with the currency exchange and with lower costs to make the cars. DC/FORD/GM were whining to Bush just the other day..

Not exactly trail-ready, but makes the liberty more useful when doing longer trips with two small kidlets. Its a mopar carrier mounted on standard mopar rails.

I had it on top of a Durango and in the pickup bed of a Titan and did not notice any noise from it but my kids and the DVD are kinda loud and may have drowned out any lite whistle or humm. Have not tried the KJ but I'm assuming it will be roughly the same.

Very little noise. And very little noticable loss in mpg too. When I first got it, I figured I'd hate driving with it, but in reality most of the time, if I'm not pulling into a parking garage, I forget its there. I'm totally happy with it.

i decided im gonna get the yakima loadwarrior roof rack frm rackattack. but will it include everything needed to install it? will it bolt right up to my stock 02 roof rack with no cross bars? or do i need to buy cross bars, attack THOSE to my stock rack, then mount the loadwarrior to that?

i have an 02 renegade. but i dont have the renegade rack, just a standard rack. heres a pic

I bought my crossbar system through them. They are great to deal with. I think you need crossbars for what your getting. Give them a call.

well today i was at wendys, and saw like an 06 liberty, dark blue, renegade, nice silver factory roof rails, and the mopar basket, and the mopar taillight guards in black, looked niiiiiiiiice. now i cant decide between the yakima or mopar one, dammit lol. the mopar one doesnt need cross bars, so thats a plus. plus i can get it cheap cuz my nighbor is retired from chrysler and can get it cheap. hmmmmmm

Looks great. I have the same racks.

I think I'm going to mount my cargo box up there this weekend as a dry run if I get a chance.
