What is Weight Capacity for Front Runner Slimline II FR45FV

Updated 09/26/2025 | Published 04/18/2025

Question:

I was looking at the front runner roof rack FR45FV for my 2015 wrangler jku. Was wondering what are the weight ratings? On and off road and static. Primarily want it for a roughly 190lb rtt, 270 degree awning and while camping 2 adults. Thanks

Hey Scott, at this time Frontrunner only offers a static weight capacity for the Slimline II part # FR45FV as 660 lbs. Which means if you had a tent mounted to it you'd have a capacity of 660 lbs for the weight of the tent and the people in it.

That being said with that much static capacity your awning weight should be no problem at all.

Hey Scott, did the Slimline II rack work out for your tent and awning setup? I'm asking because your experience could really help others with similar camping needs.
