i have had mine for a few weeks now, and eventhough it was not easy to put together, I love it! it holds so much and enables the jeep to store and hold more than it ever has. I have taken a minor road trip and had more than enough room for 2 people, recovery gear, coolers, and even more. this is, without a doubt the best purchase i have made for my jeep.
Ok Dennis!!! I got this rack, complete with the sides. I do not know how many times you did this to make it look easy - it wasnt. I struggled with the rails and then getting it into the jeep. It is well made, and im sure i will love it after i let the hate fade away. The instructions that came with it sucked! Your video is where i learned to put it together, so thank you for the video.!
So grateful for this video, I could have never done it without it.! Instructions are very detailed but this is so much more helpful. Thanks for taking the time to do it! And yes, I put this together all by myself! ;)
I have had mine almost a month now and I love it! It's one of those things you don't know you need until you have it. Don't know how I got by with out it.
On soft tops: The storage rack utilizes factory sport bar mounting holes. These holes are used by the factory soft top support brackets on jeep equipped with a factory soft top. This prevents the ability to install the storage rack for factory soft top applications. Aftermarket non fast back soft tops that do no utilize these mounting holes will accommodate the storage rack.
This video was SUPER helpful. Thank you. I was really confused. This thing has WAY too many pieces to assemble at the price is at, it should comeb assembled. That said. It's awesome
So most the time is putting the box together? rest seems ok. Adjustable is nice, you guys are the best. So no issue with soft top locations for quik disconnects etc.?
always for the JKU... JK, Owners are lacking storage space.... I love my 12 JK Rubicon, but storage is always a struggle.... Question, is there a heavy duty exterior rack that can be bolted directly to the JK 2 dr hardtop?
Sorry, Unfortunately this rack will not fit the 2 door. The brackets is made to bolt to the 4 door roll cage in per-existing bolt locations. The 2 door roll cage is different and the brackets included will not work on a 2 door roll cage.
TeraFlexSuspensions Thank you for your quick response. BTW, Just wanted to say, I love your products. My 3” short arm lift makes my JK ride much better than stock.
+Nick Bussell It's not designed to work with the soft top, but it could. The only thing that prevents it from working with the soft top is that the two holes in the cage where it bolts up are used with the soft top. So it could be worked around, Maybe in the future we will have a way to make that work.

At 3:38 you say to slide in two T Nuts into the long rail. After I was finished I didn't need those. Only need them on the short rails.

It looks to be durable without being heavy. Good design.

I just installed mine today. I will have to do a little modification to make it work with my reclining back seats.

I like the rack, however this item should be already assembled in a box ready to go for the price.
Well done Denis! You've found your calling. Now how about a set of those alpine flex arms for my Jeep?
I know this is old, but where did you get those storage bins? Does Teraflex offer them?
Well i just found what im saving up for next!!

This mounts in the same location as the soft top, sorry you can use both at the same time.
this needs a 2 door compatible mounting option please!
+Aaron Shegrud It's currently in the works!
+TeraFlexSuspensions
+TeraFlexSuspensions ETA? ;)
2 years later. Still no 2 door option.
are there any specs for how much weight this can hold like a few jerry cans or water jugs?
cant work with oem soft top right? cant is be adjusted away?

+James Carr Not that we are aware of, we are working on coming out with options for the 2 doors, it's just a little trickier.
Great... I'm a subscriber and am patiently waiting... keep up the great videos
you know how you guys made the 4 inch long arm install video? you should do one for your 6 inch long arm
+Anthony Deluise You can do most of it the same, only difference is the flipped drag link in the front on the 6"
Did anyone figure out if this will fit a 2 door JK if the rear seat has been removed. I removed my rear seat and could use this.
will it clear a smittybuilt vault?
I’ve removed the rear seats on my 2017 Sport 2 Door. Will this allow the rack to fit? 🤞🏼🤞🏼

@@rael6_4wd Our pleasure. So glad to hear it! Thanks for the support.
does it not work with a soft top?

I would pay $50 extra to have Dennis assemble mine before shipping....
It looks nice but to much work. I got one a lot less expensive and it took me 10 minutes to installed. Teraflex is great products but to many steps
