JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Prolly 10 minutes as long as you have 2 people and a place to keep the rack in its assembled state.

OK...after a couple weeks with the Kargo Master, I'm re-thinking the idea of drilling into my roof. Those of you with the rails installed on the roof, how much weight can it hold, and have you had any problems with leaking or cracking? I'm just worried about the possibility of wind grabbing my snowboard and yanking the whole rack off the top.

bump...
I called Jeep yesterday, and they wouldn't even give me a load limit for the hard top. Any observations from those who have been brave enough to drill holes???

I used the lowriders to attach the crossbars, and then the basket will go on top of that. Like I said though, it will sit up waaaaay too high. There's no way to attach the basket directly to the Kargo Master. Even if I could, it would still sit up too high.

Even if I could just attach the Mega Warrior by itself on top of the Congo cage, it would still be too tall, and my JK isn't all that tall. I only have about 2.5" of lift, and 33" tires.
