Default Garvin Track Rack
I just installed the Garvin Track Rack that I purchased online and thought I would post some close up photos. The instructions were easy to follow and it took me about three hours by myself to install. Feels sturdy, looks great, but keep in mind it will add some wind noise. Using my bluetooth/MyGig on windy days can be a bit of a challenge - callers on the other end have said it's "loud".









If you have any questions just let me know! I'll also get a shot of what it looks like inside the hardtop and add it to the thread later.

Are you running a wind dam type deal? Anything to blow the win over the rack when empty?

I do not have a wind deflector on it at the moment. I wasn't sure if I should spend the $130 on the one offered by Garvin or just build one myself.

I'm thinking of gettting this rack. Do you have any pictures of the mounts from the inside of the jeep?
