Thanks mate!

Great recovery!

So does AEV make a 2-door roof rack now?
Haha, yeah Jeeps don't need recoveries ^^

Thats an Out4x4 Roof Rack System, fabricated in Australia. I think Rhino Rack took them over, since they released identical product and the Out4x4 Website went offiline

Thanks for the heads up! Turns out there's 3 Rhino Rack dealers in all of northern california. I've been waiting for a solid 2-door rack and have been waiting for AEV to make a 2-door version of their 4-door. Now I don't have to wait!

What's the weight capacity for the platform you have? Attachment is through the hardtop that attaches to metal brackets framing the inside of the window correct?

Thanks again in advance!

Correct, it has an inner framing which is holding the rack from inside the hard top. Holds up to 100kg when moving and more if stand still. A big bonus for me was, you can take the Hard top of with the roof rack with no more effort then a stock hard top. It bolts into stock locations.

As far I know Rhino didn't release the 2 door version yet. From what I have heard it should be out by end of the Year.

Agreed! Good job with the quick thinking. So many would have turned driver and locked up in the moment!

Yes! Exactly what I've been waiting for. All the other units make it a pain to remove the hardtop. Thanks for the input/help mate!
