Great product. Great quality. Instructions not real clear, so took me a couple of hours to assemble. Then another 15-20 minutes to secure to roof racks. I was working alone, extra hands would have helped. But extremely happy with quality and looks of product. We have lots of family that visit us, so I plan to carry luggage on the rack to free up space inside the vehicle on trips to and from the airport.

Love it! It's big enough to fit a bike carrier and a cargo bag on top of my MINI. Easy to assemble and install, solid construction. Great value for your money. If I have a gripe it's that the wind fairing on the front is VERY thin/fragile. I caught it with my bike tire when loading one day and the corner snapped right off like nothing. It's only about $XXX for the replacement.

I am very pleased with the quality for the price.Just the right size for my 2017 Chevy Trax.the "U" bolts that are used to clamp the basket to the roof cross bars were a bit long so I cut them shorter & installed rubber caps on top of each stud. This keeps the studs from damaging items in the bssket.See pictures.

Greetings, I am giving these items 3? Because I was offered alternative products that did not fit together. Originally, I intended to purchase a roof rack cargo basket type and a spare tire holder from Yakima manufacturer that go well together, but one of them wasn’t in stock. So, after 3 weeks waiting time, I was offered alternative items via etrailer website, and I accepted them…after all, they are the experts. I got the recommended items through UPS, then I assembled them by myself. The roof rack cargo basket fit well on my car, but the spare tire holder was not compatible with the roof rack cargo basket. They couldn’t be assembled together. I submitted my claim to return the spare tire holder. Now, I have not achieved my goal to carry my spare tire. Understanding the needs and expectations of your customers is critical to maximize customer satisfaction. I am sure both products are good, but they are not compatible together, even though they were manufactured by the same company. Distributors should know better! I returned one item and I hope to be refunded.

Great product. Easily puts together and I was able to install on our 2016 Toyota Highlander OEM roof rails with no problems. The mounting brackets slide to make for a easy fit. Have taken it on two long road trips with zero issues last summer one to the montains and one to the beach. Was able to fit our jogging stroller on in the basket. Had some heavy rain on one trip and seen no signs of water getting into the rails as that was a concern of mine when researching the different racks. The high sides allowed for easy tie downs for the weather bag we put the stroller in. Seemed to add a little road noise with nothing in it but that is to be expected when hauling things on the roof but the wind deflector seemed to keep the noise down. Easy to put on and off with a single person able to lift it. Great product, great fit for the car. Plan on using it for some more upcoming trips.

I love the rack and the extended length is great on my Sequoia. I am disappointed with the finish on it as the connector plates are already showing signs of rust….. I like it enough that I’m going to repaint it with something more suited to our climate…

The rack and extension arrived in sturdy boxes, well packed and no damage in shipping. The parts fit together easily. The welds left something to be desired, which is why I gave it only 4 stars. As a precaution against corrosion,I got some plasti-dip, which is a rubberized vinyl sealant and sealed all the places where moisture could get into the various tubes of the rack. I was satisfied with the quality of the powder coating on all the parts. The mounting system to the roof rack is interesting and appears well-designed. The assembly and installation instructions are OK, but could have been written better. For example, there is an extra tightening knob for the U-bolts, but no description if it is there as a spare.

We were very happy with our Thule roof rack. The low profile design works well and does not have too much wind noise compared to others I’ve had. It’s held up very well also through the seasons.

Excellent choice, super dynamic for its size. Owned it for a year now. I’ve put it on two cars, and I’ve used it several times. It’s gotten our family to and from the campsite and moving a few times. If wanted during the seasons, you can easily take it off by using the available key.

Awesome product. Assembly was straightforward but did take a bit of time. Installation and removal of the rack are a breeze. Very happy with the service from etrailer.com. Incredible amount of product information on the site that allowed me to make an informed decision, and shipping was fast and free.

The Yakima OffGrid medium rack arrived yesterday at about 10:30 a.m. It was fully unpacked/assembled/installed by about 11:45. etrailer did a fine job of communicating/pricing/delivering and supporting this good product. I've been using Yakima products (and others) for biking, paddling, fishing etc. for about 45 years. This rack is a serious solution to a variety of uses of a roof rack. I will be able to use it on various vehicles and for a number of applications (sports, chores,travel etc.) It has more flexibility than most racks and I can't imagine a more durable, quality design. My particular needs, being in my "Dotage", are met by the ability to remove the cross bars and fairing for an open platform, or keep them on and custom fit to a spare tire, or bike rack, kayak rack etc. The attaching mechanisms drew my attention. I put this on the car with solo and with caution using a protective mat. It is very manageable and easy to fit. These mechanisms for tightening down on the crossbars bring the added value (and cost) to folks like me that don't want to spend a lot of time and effort installing a rooftop rack. I wanted secure, solid attachment with simplicity. The OffGrid delivers! No pain killers needed after the install! This "Medium" OffGrid is more than adequate for my initial uses. The internal and external dimensions are pretty much ideal for this 2017 Sienna. A full size spare tire will fit just right. A nice fit for a canoe as well. I admit to scouring the internet and considering dozens of products from baskets to platforms and this OffGrid showed a lot of promise. Its versatility and ruggedness competes with the best designs at about half the price of many. My thoughts included the extension bracket, but the medium OffGrid really does meet most of my expectations and needs for various applications. Now, to the matter of noise. There is wind noise. However, for me, it simply blends into the symphony of white noise that comes with highway travel (and the ringing in my ears) :)......Of all the racks, bikes, canoes,kayaks ladders, lumber, etc., etc. that I have carried on car tops, the wind sounds of this carrier are negligible. The fairing is a nice, well thought out feature that works well. So, my five star rating is for both the product and the vendor. Once again "eTrailer" has proven themselves to be one of the best sources of such products nationwide. Their product information efforts are an industry leader and they deserve credit for providing extremely helpful product reviews and explanations. That's what got me to choose them on this purchase. Those of us well into our "Dotage" appreciate learning all we can!

Well done Yakima and etrailer. Great product and great service. The product is well made (in Taiwan....not China) and the parts and instruction video made it relatively" easy to install. Two people helps to install it more readily. The wind diffuser in the front greatly reduces wind noise. All in all very happy and glad I bought through etrailer. Service was excellent and delivery prompt.

Curt Roof Basket Review - 2017 Jeep Cherokee
Today on our 2017 Jeep Cherokee we're doing a test fit of the Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket. This is 41 1/2 inches long by 37 inches wide by four inches deep and has a 150 pound weight capacity. Although it does have that high weight capacity, you do want to check your vehicle's owner's manual to make sure it can withstand that much weight. The part number for this is C18115. Now we already have all four of our spacers in place. We have three out of four of them secured down.

We already have three of our four mounts secured down. We're going to show you how we do our back passenger's side one here. We've got our spacers and brackets in place. We have out first bracket, which is going to be a plastic one, that goes underneath the railing of our backset and over the top of our crossbars.

Jeep Cherokee Cargo Carriers Questions
- You will need a roof rack with crossbars in order to mount the Thule Roof Cargo Basket # TH859XT on your 2019 Jeep Cherokee. I would be happy to recommend the correct roof rack system for your Jeep if you can let me know if if it has raised side rails that run front to back, flush mounted rails that run front to back, or a naked roof (no rails at all).
view full answer... - The Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket - 47" Long x 35" Wide - 165 lbs # RMCB is designed to fit on crossbars with a maximum size of 3-1/2" wide x 1-1/2" tall, so you'll want to confirm that the roof rack crossbars on your 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk are no larger than that. The good news is that these are designed to fit on most crossbars, so it's likely that these should fit but I do recommend measuring to confirm.
If you don't already have factory roof rack crossbars...
view full answer... - Since your 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Upland Edition has the raised rails then all you will need is the Surco Safari Rack 5.0 Rooftop Cargo Basket item # SPS4560-1101. The included adapter kit will work if you can slide your fingers or hand beneath the rails on the side of your Cherokee.
view full answer... - Let's start with the roof rack for your 2017 Jeep Cherokee.
Both the Rhino-Rack Vortex StealthBar and Aero Crossbar Systems are excellent choices and are confirmed to fit your Jeep as long as its roof has the factory installed rails that run front to back. I do recommend going with the StealthBar Roof Rack # JA7972. This is going to provide an extremely sleek system with an OEM appearance due to the integrated feet that will attach directly to the factory side rails. Once installed,...
view full answer... - I checked with Surco and they actually recommend the 50 inch long by 45 inch wide Safari Rack # SPS4550-1101. With this set up the basket will actually attach to the side rails of the vehicle, not the crossbars, and you may even have to remove the crossbars to mount the basket if they end up interfering with the installation.
Basket # SPS5060-1101 would not be a fit because it is too wide to mount to the vehicle properly.
view full answer... - Thank you for the photo of your 2016 Jeep Cherokee that has factory-installed raised side rails on its roof. To use the Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket # RMCB02 on your Cherokee you'll need a roof rack like their aerodynamic Vortex Aero rack, made of parts # RRVA126B-2 and # RRSX100. This rack will be quieter than other types thanks to its elliptical-shaped bars that reduce wind turbulence. Their black finish will also complement the Jeep's appearance. An installation...
view full answer... - The LoadWarriers will not work, but I have good news. The Thule # TH859XT has a custom lock in the part # TH450400. These metal lock cores replace the plastic locks on the Roof Basket. These locks secure the cover to the hardware that attaches the rack to the crossbars so that the hardware cannot be accessed. These locks deter theft.
view full answer... - I have a great alternative for you. While your 2016 Jeep Cherokee has enough roof length and crossbar spread for you to mount the Kuat Vagabond X Roof Cargo Basket and 2 Bike Carrier - Steel - 73" x 41" - 160 lbs VX201-VX202 (with the extension), you will not be able to fully open the rear hatch of your vehicle while the Vegabond X is mounted due to the 73-inch length of the basket.
With that being said, if you have a 2016 Jeep Cherokee with a bare roof along with your Mopar...
view full answer... - We have one option for a cargo basket that attaches to the side rails of the roof of a vehicle and does not require crossbars. The Surco part # SPS4550-1101 can attach to just the raised side rails of a vehicle like you are looking to do.
view full answer... - I confirmed with Thule that the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 49" x 40" x 6" - 150 lbs # TH859XT will fit your 2015 Jeep Cherokee's factory crossbars with no additional hardware needed. The basket comes with universal mounting hardware.
view full answer... - In order to install a roof basket on a 2015 Jeep Cherokee you will indeed need to install a set of crossbars, the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbar System part # RRVA126B-2 and part # RRSX100 is a great option weighing around 15 lbs total. These can then be used with the Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket part # RMCB02 which weighs around 40 lbs.
view full answer... - First let's start with a roof rack for your 2015 Jeep Cherokee with raised siderails.
For that you would want the Rhino Rack that consists of part numbers # RRVA126B-2 and # RRSX005.
Then for a cargo basket the Thule Canyon XT # TH859XT.
view full answer... - According to Yakima, the only roof mount cargo box that has been confirmed to fit the factory roof rack of your 2014 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk is the LoadWarrior Cargo Basket, # Y07070. This cargo basket has several accessories available for you.
The Stretch Net, # Y07072, would be great to secure any cargo in the basket. You can also choose the Spare Tire Carrier, # Y07076, Locking Mounting Brackets, # Y07064, and the Driving/Off-road Light Mounting Bracket, # Y07075.

view full answer... - Before installing a roof cargo basket, you'll need a roof rack with crossbars. If your Cherokee has side rails, you can add crossbars using the SportRack # SR1098. If your Cherokee has a bare roof, you can add a roof rack using the following parts:
Rhino Rack 2500 Series Crossbar, part # RRVA137B-2
Leg Kit, part # RRRLKVA
Vehicle specific clamp kit, part # DK398
The Rhino-Rack # RMCB Cargo Basket would be an excellent choice, and would be compatible with either rack configuration...
view full answer... - If the crossbar spread of your Thule roof rack has a crossbar spread (distance from front bar to rear bar, measured center to center) is between 20" and 37 inches then the Thule # TH859XT Roof Mounted Cargo Basket would be an excellent choice.
The clamps that attach the basket are indeed compatible with Thule square crossbars.
view full answer... - The SportRack cargo basket # SR9035 is designed to fit on crossbars up to 3-1/2 inches wide. The Thule AeroBlade bars such as # TH7501, are 3-1/8 inches wide. So the basket mounting hardware is wide enough to fit around the Thule AeroBlade bars.
view full answer... - The Thule Cargo Basket part # TH859XT with the extension part # TH8591XT will fit your 2014 Jeep Cherokee with factory crossbars. I attached a review video that shows the basket being used on a 2014 Cherokee just like yours. The extension section would work just fine and realistically would just make the basket 20 inches longer. The total length would be 69 inches so you can measure that length on your roof. You can also buy these two together as part # TH859XT-8591XT.
view full answer... - Surco offers their rooftop cargo baskets in many sizes, including the 45 x 60-inch size, which is part # SPS4560-1101. This basket fits on raised factory roof side rails that run front to back. You can see an example installation using the video link included for you.
This Surco basket offers a 250-lb weight rating but you'll want to check your Jeep manual to confirm the vehicle's own roof weight capacity. The lower of the two will determine your actual load rating. Keep in...
view full answer... - The Thule Roof Cargo Carrier # TH859XT that you referenced is designed to fit crossbars that are spaced apart between 20 inches and 37 inches. If you have factory crossbars on your 2001 Jeep Cherokee and they are spaced in that range of spread, then this basket would work well.
If you have a wider crossbar spread the Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07080-82 can fit spreads of up to 60 inches.
view full answer... - My Surco contact confirmed that the Surco Safari Rack # SPS4550-1101 that you referenced will fit your 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport with the factory roof rails.
Before you load any cargo, please check your owners manual to verify your roof weight capacity and be sure to add the weight of the cargo basket in your total.
To tie down your cargo you may be interested in an assortment of bungee cords. I would recommend 4-6 each of: # EM06664 19" and # EM06656 24" and 2-3...

What our customers are saying:
