Default MBRP Roof Rack Cage - CAD Drawings!
We have been working on getting our new cage ready for MOAB and I wanted to give everyone an idea of what our designers have been working on! You will find a bunch of the CAD drawings below. We will have the first production cage installed on our Jeep in time for MOAB and can't wait to load up all our gear!

Let me know what you guys think...

very nice looking. Can you still mount the lights and everything with that cage on?

It looks very simple to install, the rack. I imagine that was considered during the design process.

That looks absolutely GREAT, but

I don't want that additional "cage" on top the original rack

Please tell me when I can expect the shipment, of my rack, I sent you an email

Lights can be mounted to the front and back of the cage, or to the rack itself when the cage is removed. There are additional holes drilled in the front of the cage which can be used to mounting just about anything!

Install is very simple. Our designers have worked hard to make sure this is something you can install with minimal technical experience and basic hand tools.

JIMBO,

I haven't forgotten about you! I have been waiting for an update from the production manager... I assure you that we will be shipping one of the very first production racks to you! I will have an update from the production team very shortly.

OK, I just put 1500 miles on the JK and I wondered what had happened in the last two weeks

My hiwy mileage has dropped about 1mpg since my additions in the last couple months and I suppose this rack will drop it another %mpg, but I can't wait to install it, then I can finish my JK hardtop, internal insulation, she's pretty quiet so far anyway

Looking forward to your info/shipping--thanx, Steve

P.S.

This cage is going to be an option you can think about. It will not be included with our rack system but will be available sometime after MOAB!

Your rack was sent out for coating today!
