Wind boar Square back roof rack under $500
I am looking for a way to add cargo capability to my jku. I found a Wildboar roof rack used for under $500. First is this a good price and second does anyone have recomendations for use with a soft top?

It's a body mount rack so it would be fine on your soft top but you should check what generation it is...I believe the first gen's weren't hinged like the new ones so not sure how that would function when putting your soft top up/down. If it's one of the newer ones i'd hop on it for sure - great price.

It is the newer design. I think it is a 2010. It flips open to the side and has the awning cover. I just wondered if it would cause top flutter and how bad it will effect the MPG.

Sweet deal. I can't answer the top flutter question but I used to have a rack on my '09 and it didn't noticeably affect the MPG. Carrying a full load of cargo is another story though...that was noticeable
