Don't get me wrong, I'm glad someone is competing, but I'm confused as to why this would be any better than the Mopar version. You're still stuck with proprietary (and expensive) hardware, limited tie down entry points (only the ends), and the heavy initial expense. At least it looks nice, I guess.
@@northridgenation It's your ride not mine but it's still a dumb idea to use any sort of power drill with a tap. Honestly, makes me question your company's credibility.
@@northridgenation In some applications sure, a drill is the right tool but not in this case. Your going to have someone mess up their new truck going this route when hand tools are much more appropriate for the task. But sure, you're right, a drill can be used. You won the internet today at the cost of at least one customer.
These look amazing and no doubt stronger than OEM. However, $350 seems a little steep for some painted extruded aluminum and four mounts...
The Uintas Bed Rail system is nicer and less expensive than the OE Mopar bed rails.
what's size the tap socket
Nice, I wonder if the low profile.13/16" height extrusion might not require the notches
If you try it and it works, let us know.

Not everyone gets the OE rail system on their new JT.
This is just another option that is less $$$ than the OE kit and you can order extra hooks too.
@@northridgenation you can get hooks at home depot and lowes for 2 bucks. Depending on size. And get turning knobs
Do all the oem mopar accessories work with this rail system?
Yes, they should be compatible.
Will the Teraflex hooks work with the Mopar rails?
Haven't tried that yet. Will check into it.
Just found out they do from Teraflexes site.
no nutserts?
No, they screw right into the factory threaded holes.
Vocês vendem para o Brasil?

Will other accessories designed to work with the trail rail system also work with this?
Good question.
Which accessories are you thinking of?
@@northridgenation I was looking at the fab fours overland rack, or another rack similar to that.
@@brandonfoltiny3943 That rack bolts in underneath the rail system, so it should work fine.
Does this fit for Jeep gladiator 2023?
Yes!
Do they work with molle panels?
Yes they do.
Never use a power drill with a tap, that's a quick way to FUBAR your threads!
That's why you spin the tap in by hand the first few threads to make sure you are engaged.

@@nickpantano3462 Using a tap with a drill is common, scary for some, but not if you do it right.
They even make drill bits with taps built right in.

@@nickpantano3462 🤣
Once again, another product way overpriced. 50 bucks at home depot and make your own.
What would you use for the tie down points themselves? I've seen people make rails from the hardware store metal rails before.
made in China
Made in Taiwan.
