what size are the crossbars?
1" in diameter. Thanks for your inquiry.
Hi there, I'm looking to make an upgrade to my 2002 Wrangler and buy a roof rack, and the price point of this Smittybilt is very appealing. I have seen this model on other websites and noticed that the static weight capacity was listed as 300 pounds elsewhere for this same model. I'm trying to fit my Tepui rooftop tent as well as two people on this roof rack, all in all about 400 pounds of static weight. I wanted to clarify that the SWC is actually 700 pounds, and that this would work just fine for my needs. Thank you!
It is a maximum of up to 300 pounds of evenly distributed cargo. It is not safe to run for more weight than that, unfortunately. Thanks for your inquiry.
Can I install this if I have a snorkel intake or would it get in the way?
Racks with front supports that attach at the windshield hinges will have interference points with snorkels unless some modifications are made. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Is it possible to use this if the jeep has a body lift. I see that it attaches to the body and the frame so if those things are separated by say 3", then there will need to be an extension or longer rear down pipe option. Brian D
The rack comes with body lift spacers for up to 3", so you should be okay. Thanks for your inquiry.
do I have to have the original bumper or will an aftermarket bumper allow this to work
Compatible bumpers must Not wrap around the corner of the Jeep where the rack mount attaches to the frame. So, it is compatible with the original bumper and most aftermarket bumpers.
2002 wrangler sport - need to remove rear bumper to install ??
No, you would have remove the end caps and would not be able to reinstall them.
can any basket fit on a smittybilt roof rack or only compatible with other smittybilt products?
The cross bars are designed for use with almost all aftermarket accessories (Thule, Yakima, etc)
I am looking at paring this with the smittybilt roof top tent. is it compatible with the tents?
Yes, this rack is compatible with the Smittybilt roof rack tent.
