Mounting Location And Compatibility For Non E Group Roof Racks 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee

Question:

I have a 2012 Jeep Cherokee with non-E-Group rails. It looks as if what I am finding for roof racks only attach to naked roof. Is there a rack that will attach to my factory roof racks?

I do have a solution available for you however, the factory side rails on the non E group package of your 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee will not allow you to attach crossbar feet to them. You will not have to uninstall the factory rails to use one of our systems such as the Thule WingBar System which is composed of part # TH711500, part # TH480R, and part # THKIT1656. This system has aero shaped cross bars which are both wind resistant and less noisy than other bar shapes. It also comes with a lifetime warranty.
