The Yakima rack on mine in the pic above attach to tracks bolted through the hard top running the length.I did not mean to imply I was going to sit the canoe directly on the hardtop. I wanted to know of a cargo system that could be attached to the roof, that would distribute the weight - is that a possibility?
I built me a roof rackI have a 12 foot long canoe, weighs 50 lbs, that I would like to know if it's possible to carry it on top of my 97 TJ hardtop?
Any ideas, or can someone direct me to a post where some one has posted doing it.
Nice job I like the rack. How do you have it mounted in the rear?
It is mounted to heavy duty brackets inside the tub and runs down to the frame on both sides from there. The rack will handle just about anything you would want to put up on top. It is solid. I wanted to keep it clean looking and not sticking out from the side of the Jeep. (like you see many others)Nice job I like the rack. How do you have it mounted in the rear?
