Default Roof rack with snorkel

Does anybody have first hand knowledge what roof racks will work with an AEV snorkel? JK is a 2 door and making trips with my 3.5 yr old is requiring more space than I have inside the Jeep. Thanks!

With my aev snorkel you cant have a roof rack the mounts to the side windshield bolts. I believe some racks mount to the front windshield bolts. That will likely work for you. Or go with a top mount rack, but you likely will have to drill into the roof.

I have been researching the same question. It seems that a lot of people are running the AEV snorkel with various racks. It would be nice to get some user feedback on what works, what works but requires modification, and what doesn't work at all.

MBRP would work but requires drilling into the hard top.

It looks like Kargo Master should work as it mounts to the front of the windshield hinges, but i'd love someone to confirm that.
