Question:

I have a 2022 Jeep Gladiator. I have a removable plastic rooftop with rain gutters. Can the Yakima Roof Rack still be installed on this type of roof system?

Expert Reply:

It sure can Tammy! The Yakima Roof Rack for Rain Gutters item # Y29YD is exactly what you need for your Gladiator. The included towers are going to connect directly to the rain gutters. The two 58" long x 1-1/8" diameter round crossbars will allow you to attach all kinds of accessories.

I attached a picture below of the Yakima item # Y29YD installed on a Jeep Gladiator so you'll know what they look like when installed.

I recommend using the Yakima Same Key System (SKS) Lock Cores item # Y07204 to secure the rack to your Jeep's roof and protect the investment you made.

What do you plan on using your new roof rack for?

I am planning on transporting two canoes that are each 30 inches wide and 12 feet long.

@Tammy The Yakima Roof Rack item # Y29YD will be great for that! The Yakima JayLow Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs item # Y92MX would work great for your setup.
