Most Popular Storage Rack for Jeep

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.

Both the kayak and paddle board racks worked great. Easy to install and very sturdy. I added two 3’pieces of conduit to the paddle board rack to be able to store my canoe. Worked great. Excellent product and service. Thanks

These J hooks are sturdy and well designed. I use the hooks to store Kayak's on a dock as shown in the pictures. These would work with any size kayak- I have a 17' and 14' yak stored on the hooks. Everything you need to install is included.

This rack works perfectly for storing a car roof top carrier box. The rack is very sturdy and installed easily on our concrete block wall (utilized concrete screw anchors that were not included).

This rhino rack works extremely well for our Yakima box. It’s off the floor and safely stored! The brackets are very sturdy and the padding provides cushion so the box isn’t damaged. Great product!

Worked great to hold both our kayaks!

Easy installation, great space-saving option to store 2 kayaks. I installed them outdoor, time will tell how well or how long the straps can hold up against the elements, but I think they well worth a try.

Overall I give this Thule Multilift Cargo Lift a five star rating; however installing this device takes some effort and skill. Maybe more effort and skill than the typical DYI'er can provide. The instructions provided do not have any words or dimensions, only pictures. Other than following the routing of the rope through the pullies it didn't provide me any benefit. Also, my system did not come with any screws or bolts. For me that was not a big deal as I have plenty of hardware I can use. There is one center bracket and four pullies to install. The spacing does not line up with typical dimensions so I had to improvise to get the Multilift installed. My garage ceiling has joist spacing that is 16" on center. That is typical, although some may have 24" on center spacing. Either way the spacing for the screws to secure the various components does not match. I guess you could use toggle bolts to hold the components to the ceiling sheetrock but I didn't trust that idea. What I did was to span my ceiling joists with 1"x4" wood and then attach the components to them. The kit comes with a template so getting the actual components set up on the 1"x4" wood strips was simple enough. Once all the components are installed then the rope is routed through the pullies. As you can see in the pictures I had a close clearance between the roof box and my roll-up garage door. I think it is about 2". Since I don't have a tall roll-up garage door I cannot drive my car in or out with the roof box installed. That didn't matter to me since my only goal was to store the roof box out of harms way. My last comment is that it takes two people to lift the roof box up and get the Multilift ropes in place. I tried to do it by myself but that did not work. I do like this Thule Multilift but it took some effort to install it. I really like the way it is raised and lowered by turning a mechanism with a handle. There is a less expensive lift sold on the internet but it did not use as many pullies to raise and lower the roof box and it relied on a rope to lift and lower it.

For our 3 grandkids we needed a way to carry camping stuff. This works great. It opens from either side, key locked on both. We have hung it from the garage ceiling for easy installation. All the stuff fits well.
