Warrior Safari Sports Rack and Mirror Brackets
This weekend I installed my sports rack and mirror relocation brackets. Overall I am real happy with the products. The rack has 4 brackets on the front for lights and 2 on the back (I'm thinking those also might serve as a a good Hi-Lift mounting point). It took me about 5 to 6 hours to install everything by myself.
I bonded 40 mil pvc to the back of all the mounting brackets to avoid any metal to metal contact.
The mirror brackets do vibrate a little at speed and they can be left on with the doors on but the mirrors need to be moved back to the doors because they hit the window frame when the door is open.
Now I need to measure and see when I install my 2" lift if I'll still be able to get out of the garage.

The rack doesn't fold back but there is enough room between the rack and the top that I had no problem getting the freedom panels off and the back of the hard top looks like it should be able to slide backwards then come off without a problem, I haven't tried it yet. I don't have a soft top but if they work like the ones I have had on previous Jeeps the regular soft top shouldn't be a problem but there isn't room to flip the sunruner top back.

Sweet..finally some installed pics of these. THank you. Could I get another pic from the front and a little closer in of that mirror mount. I'm still thinking on purchasing it but am not sold yet.

looks good!
Finally, some decent pictures of that rack. Awesome install job .
How hard is it to remove the basket from the light bars? I know they designed the whole thing to just come off by pulling 4 pins, but if i got one, i'd be using the front light bar more than anything, and the basket would be for the long trips. So i was just wondering how much of a pain it is to take just the basket off?

I will try and get you those pics but my wife might have taken our camera with her to the Jersey shore and she won't be back for a couple of days. If she didn't I'll get them tonight.
