Reviews for Mopar 82215387AB Removable Roof Rack Kit for 18-24 Jeep Wrangler JL & Gladiator JT with Factory Hardtop
easy installation and quite on the road
Performs as expected
So this roof rack kit is great as long as you order some locks to keep the covers from flying off. I ordered the Yakima corelocks and now everything looks amazing and no chance of cover flying off. I get lots of compliments on the look. I also went ahead ordered the carrier basket and kayak mount as they both can fix up on the rack at the same time.
I use the roof rack quite often so this a definite need.
Did not want to drill my roof, but did want some modularity. these whistle a bit but you can google some tricks to reduce it. Until you mount something to them of course. I had concerns about weight, however I have mounted an upright kayak carrier on DS and the Mopar Basket on PS with the Thule/Mopar Flat kayak mount on top of the Basket. I have put a combined with of about 150 pounds between two kayaks and folding chairs/outdoor screen tent and kayak paddles in the basket on my JT Gladiator roof. placed each bar at the extreme end of the gutter on the real section of roof. This has held up for thousands miles (at once) of highway speed driving and a couple hundred miles of fire roads in the North Maine Woods, no problem. Very happy with them.
Great looking racks! Easy install. Other reviews are right. They do whistle pretty good at highway speeds.
These fit Great. Haven't heard a Whistle or Noise.
As for the Locks, I had 4 Yakima SKS Core Lock's from my Subaru WRX Rail Project and they fit perfectly. Both Racks/Cars have the same Key now!
Fast Install, No time at all, even in 110 Degree Texas Heat.
Does the trick but whistles at >45mph
Works well but the plastic “locks” are garbage!
These cross bars are very easy to install, even for a novice like me. They are black and look great on the hard top. I have yet to use them, but they feel like they will easily accommodate my 50 lbs kayak. I will be using them in conjunction with a T-Loader for the kayak. I do not give them 5 stars because they whistle like crazy. Usually, this can be fixed with tape, but it would have been nice if I did not have to do this extra step.
