Most Popular Swagman for 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited

Ordering was very easy and I really like the fact that I had reviews from others "with pictures". That helped me tremendously. The items came within 2 days (WOW). I didn't expect that. They are exactly like show and I will be installing them today. I don't expect any problems. (update after installation) I have now installed and I would have given a rating of Excellent, but I did not because of 1 problem I had. The screws that come with the product are soooo cheap that they all began to strip out as I installed them. And yes I was using the right Phillips head bit and I even had my drill set to stop if it hit resistance. The Phillips head has very small cross threads. If you look at the pics you'll see what I mean. This Phillips head is too small of threads for a larger 2" screw like this. As such, I ended up having to spend $20 on a screw extraction product (Grabit drill extraction) to get 1 of them out. I since replaced all these crappy screws with ones with better heads that are made of actual metal, not paper-mache that looks like metal. By the way, the Grabit screw extraction tool works great... Now that they're up, they look great and do perform exactly like I expected. I would definitely recommend these...

Good product, easy to install though as one reviewer mentioned, the heads of the phillips head screws easily strip out and I did so, even when forewarned. The only improvement would be if the angles were adjustable to better fit individual boats. Never-the-less the brackets are working great.

Carrier broke on second trip to coast.

Works well for me. As other reviews have mentioned, the rubber pad is quite grippy which makes it hard to slide a boat once it is on the racks. However, that grippiness also means the boat stays put and it doesn't take much strap tension to lock things in place. This rack eliminates any concerns of the boat twisting from wind even without bow or stern lines.
