Surco safari rack
How much extra height is there? Thanks for the pics . Your JK looks great. I'm thinking of getting it but want to make sure that I can get it in the garage. Can you get Kayaks on top?

Yeah, my rack does sit pretty high.
IronDynaRider, it is 9 1/2 inches from top of roof to the top rail on the rack.
I got mine from Quadratec.
Sorry for taking so long, never saw the new post!

This rack is perfect for me, however it sits pretty high. Does any one know if its possible to mount the basket below the load bars? below is a crude sketch of what I am talking about.

Hey! That's my jeep!!! At least you remembered to edit the photo.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure your plan won't work. The arms that mount to the crossmembers begin their downward turn before the outermost mounting points on the basket. Therefore you'd only be able to attach the basket at one spot on each of the two crossmembers. IMO, that wouldn't be near sturdy enough. Maybe with enough fab work and a bit of aluminum welding you could make it work.
Here's some more pics that I have of the rack.
