Expert Reply:
So there are two options for a roof rack for your 2016 Jeep Wrangler with a 3-piece hard top, and both are going to involve drilling into your roof so it will be a permanent application. One is from Rhino-Rack and the other from Yakima, with the difference being the Backbone support system from the Rhino-Rack being sturdier overall than the Yakima's simple footpads. So I'd go with the Rhino-Rack, but either system will work, and here are the needed parts for you:
Yakima
- Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00426
- SkyLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y53TR
- Landing Pad 6 # Y00226
- (Optional) Yakima Same Key System (SKS) Lock Cores # Y07204
Rhino-Rack
- Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA150B-2
- Rhino-Rack Quick Mount Legs # RRRLT600
- Rubber Bases for Rhino-Rack RRRLT600 Quick Mount Legs # RRQMFK06
- Rhino-Rack Backbone Roof Rack Mounting System # RRRJKB2
