Expert Reply:
For mounting a heavy duty crossbar setup on your 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited JK, I recommend the following components:
- Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty Roof Rack Crossbars - Black - 59" # RB1500B-2
- Rhino-Rack Quick Mount Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - RTC and RT Roof Rack Tracks # RRRLT600
- Rhino-Rack Backbone Roof Rack Mounting System # RRRJLB1
- Rubber Bases for Rhino-Rack RRRLT600 Quick Mount Legs # RRQMFK06
- Roof Rack Leg Spacer Blocks for Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty Crossbars - 5 mm Thick # RRQMHD05-2
The great thing about using this Rhino-Rack HD system is that the bars come with lightweight, extruded, structural-grade aluminum for increased strength and durability. Also, with using the Backbone, you gain more weight capacity on your roof than other models that attach directly to the hard top. With this particular system, you get 175 pounds of maximum weight capacity. As with all roof racks, I recommend checking with your owner's manual to make sure your Wrangler can handle that much weight.
