have any of you seen this roof rack and know where i can get it?
i found this picture on Quadratec advertising the Yakima LoadWarrior Gear Basket...but it's not the basket that i want at this point...i just want a way to mount a simple (ae. "cheap") rack onto the factory roll cage.

thanks for the help, y'all!

Load Warrior sounds like the name of a low budget porn. It def doesn't fit the jeep, but I would like to know where to get those mounts.

Did you try looking at the Yakima website? I'm pretty sure those are Yakima mounts with Yakima crossbars.

check out prolineracks .cum they might have something that works..

I believe it says they will not fit on a JK. The only thing that looks like will fit on a JK are these

I would be curious to know how strong it would be mounted to the hard top though.

It wouldn't take much to mount four small pieces of track to the JK sport cage under the padding. You could then put four slits in the sport cage cover and mount the bases from either a Thule or Yakima system through the slits to the track. Hope that description makes sense.

if ya wanna mount it to the roll cage and not bother having the top on then why not just use those 2 holes that are in the crossmember that has the speakers?
that way it could be held down as solid as ever.

and hell i could whip up something like that easy

yeah, i checked out the yakima website. they really don't have anything specified to fit the sport cage from what i could see :( matbe i just don't know what to call the mounts, and therefore don't know what to search for...

thanks for the site! i just looked there but didn't really find anything that said it was meant to be mounted on the roll cage...

i see what you're saying, but really what i'm looking for is something a little more temporary just to top-load some stuff during the few times per year that the hard top actually comes off

that actually sounds like a good idea! i'm no good at welding or metal work, but that does sound like something that is do-able with the right tools. hmm...i guess i just need to get my hands on a cheap rack and a dude who can work with steel to start figuring out what the design will be like

thanks for all the suggestions!!

In the picture you provided those are the "universal" mounts that have a rubber strap that wraps around a bar (any bar within a certain diameter). The rubber wraps around the bar and then kind of clips to itself and then you tighten a bolt that in turns tights the strap around the bar. I had a set of the thule versions on my tahoe's factory rack. I think the prduct # was 450 (I am probably wrong) but I don't know if this will help you or just confuse the situation more...
