Is there a roof rack for 2016 Jeep Patriot with factory flush rails?

Question:

Hi. I have a 2016 Jeep Patriot with factory installed flush rails. Do yall have any roof rack options that dont require factory installed raised rails? Everything Ive seen on here requires factory installed raised rails. Other sites seem to have the same requirements. Almost seems like Im out of luck with the flush rails. Thanks for any assistance.

I have a solution for you, but unfortunately you are correct in saying there are not any custom-fit roof racks to fit flush rails on a 2016 Jeep Patriot. I recommend going with the SeaSucker Ridge Ready Monkey Bars Roof Rack # SEA46VR which is pretty much your only good solution.

This universal setup gives your roof 2 round bars that are 48" long, ideal for a variety of accessories and add-ons. The weight limit is 150 pounds, but make sure you also don't exceed the limit of your Jeep's roof! I attached a helpful video that demonstrates this system.
