I recommend using aero style crossbars on a 2023 Jeer Wrangler. The Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbar System part # RRVA150B-2, part # RRVA-FK1-2, and part # RRRL110S5-2 in particular. The aero style bars are most versatile with rooftop accessories and they will be the quietest. They can also be used for lumber but for this I do also recommend the Load Stops for Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars part # RRRLH2.

I don't recommend the Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty Roof Rack Crossbars since they don't work well with a lot of rooftop mounted accessories and the increased weight capacity won't be able to be utilized on this vehicle anyhow.

Hi Nathan, The Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Legs #RRRL110S5-2 are a fit for the gutters on your 2023 Jeep Wrangler, but they are only 4-5/16" tall so you'd likely run into clearance issues with the sky top. To confirm you can measure up 4-5/16"…
