Default Jeep JK exo frame

Hi all,

We are new to the Jeep and would appreciate some help with identifying the brand for this exo frame. It looks closest to the Rockhard 4x4, but not finding the exact one. We need to know so we can add the frame bracing over the roof top with the goal of adding a tent. We would also appreciate knowing the brand for the lights if anyone knows that as well.

Thanks in advance for the information, Karen

It looks pretty similar to a Kargo Master roof rack, they've got that stylized step over the cowl that not everyone tends to do. Welcome to the forum, be sure to show us when you get it all put together and get out camping with it- there are some folks here that would love that tidbit of inspiration to get out.

Do y'all have more info on the Recon? It looks decked out and ready to hit the dirt. I know it's Gobi colored and obviously a 2017 rubi Recon, but what else has been done to it to bring it up to where it is now?

It is the Recon package and came with the lights, Warn winch, rack, and some interior upgrades. It has been trailing a couple of times to see what it could do and where it needed some improvements to start. We just upgraded the rims and tires with 35” 12.5 R17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on Black Rhino Arsenal. The Recon has about a 1.5 lift over the standard Rubicon per the information we learned, but we still plan to do somewhere between 2-3 inch lift. We still doing the research for the best system/package.

We are also looking at upgrading the lighting system, just not sure to scrap what is there and going with something known if we cannot figure out what the lights are.

Thanks again on the rack infor! It is the Kargo Master for sure. We were able to pull the information up on it. It is officially called Kargo Master Congo Pro Rack. We were able to find the cross bars for it and they were only $94. So awesome for knowing what to do and able to get the rest of what we need for getting it ready.
