Default is this roof rack for 2 door or 4 door?

Hoping someone can answer this because the company apparently can't. Its one of the N-Dure/Garage pro roof racks. Anyone who's assembled a roof rack or has one able to verify is this has all the parts for a 2 door or 4 door? Thanks in advance

Without measurements it's hard to tell. Can't the mfgr tell you? Make sure whatever you do will fit under your garage door track. I almost put one on then measured and spent my money for new seats instead.

it's thru eBay and no part number:/ they told me there is no way they can find out lol. crazy, not sure how they expect to sell it or why they keep spending the money to list it. Ill try emailing n-dure if I can and see where I can get.
it's the same ones jcwhitney sells and from what I've read, they are clueless at answering this question as well.

Dang the people are retarded. Got the roof rack in today and not only was it for a 2 door, it was box 1 of 2. Box 2 of the wrong rack wasn't even shipped.
stay away from discountautoparts on eBay. Bunch of morons. 2 of my emails asking them if it was for a 2 door or 4 door they replied "I dunno" basically. The other 2 replies confirmed that listing was for a 4 door. When I paid for it, I again emailed them and reminded them to send the 4 door so they don't waste money shipping. Aghhh ! seems pretty obvious to me what it is right???!

Default I hope this thread is still alive....

Are there any dimensional changes between an 11' vs 12' unlimited? JCW says this is for 07-11 but I have a feeling it will fit all JK's as I think their measurements are the same exterior wise. Ready to pull the trigger on the REPJ520101 and hope they remember to ship the second box. Thanks guys..

Id look for pics online of this or someone who bought this rack and has it on. I had it on for 1 day and sold it last year. The rack stuck up way too high above my jeep and looked stupid. And the noise the front cross rail across the windshield was unbearable

I've got about a week of research so far into this rack and have yet to find anyone using it on a 12' or later unlimited. It's hard to just take a leap of faith when you hear of the shipping horror stories (sending this thing back will cost about the same as purchasing it). I do take your opinion of the rack to consideration though as my garage door is fairly low. I know to well of the "you get what you pay for" but when it comes to tubular steel, it just seems like a very good deal.

U plan on using it with hardtop or soft? Hardtop it wouldn't stick out as far I'm sure and prob not look as bad. When they messed up on shipping with me, I somehow ended up with half a rack extra. Basically the rear 2 door kit lol. I wasn't going to pay to ship it back and figured I could use the tubular steel for a project in the future lol Another problem was my rear aftermarket bumper. The rear frame mounts use the same holes as my bumper and the rack wouldn't work with my bumper. I had to do the body mount method and drill into my rear body near the taillights. Sucks cause since I sold it a day later, I was left with 2 holes in the rear corners in each side.
I know its steel but this rack is extremely heavy too
