In need of some gear setup/storage recommendations.
Looking to get into some camping and short (3-4 day) overland trips this summer with the TJ. My 2 dogs take up the backseat, so I am pretty limited on storage inside.
I'm thinking about getting a roof/safari rack for gear storage. I'm not too worried about overhead clearance for the trails I use. I don't see too many TJ's setup with gear overhead, just RTT's (which I won't be using). I don't really like the look of the Smittybilt style tubes that connect to the frame, but it doesn't look like the Kargo Congo cage style that connect behind the rear tail lights is made anymore. I'm also concerned about not being able to put the soft top up and down with the rack permanently installed.
I was thinking about trying to mount a rear rack on my MorRyde tailgate setup. It would give me a little extra room for some light stuff with overloading the tailgate hopefully.
Any thoughts or recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks
