ARS is the only rack that features a "load bearing" front hoop without the need for additional support; this strength is the bedrock that allows our rack systems to withstand fore and aft thrust, side load forces, and prevents horizontal wracking (the twisting/flexing out of a rigid or supportive state). The front hoop columns are attached with 3/16" steel pier-plates that connect to 16 strong mounting points along with 2 additional fasteners at the front assembly of the Jeep body, then the pier plates are discretely covered with the factory cowl for a clean OE look.
The rear hoop columns are attached with our 3/16" steel base anchors and flexural footings, that create an understructure connecting the frame of the Jeep to the hoop for the strongest attachment point. The flexural footings coupled to our 2” OD steel support columns through 2-part urethane bushings, providing flexural rigidity between the frame and body mounts that allow the front and rear foundations to work in unison to support the cargo structure.
Roof trusses are made from strong 2” OD steel tube and are attached with CNC billet clamps to the fore and aft hoop columns. The roof trusses have been engineered with forward slopes to reduce outward forces on the front body mounted hoop columns; the rear facing billet clamps attach directly to the frame mounted rear hoop columns, where any thrust forces are dealt with utilizing our base anchored/flexural footings.
The roof trusses are positioned low, as bowing is not an issue with the colossal strength, ensuring the lowest center of gravity possible when at capacity. The JL ARS Rack will support up to 350lbs of dynamic weight and over 850lbs quasi static loads.
The Included Stealth platform is compiled of Aluminum cargo platforms mount flush between Rocklander roof trusses. These light, sturdy, and virtually out of sight from the side-view pieces allow cargo to be mounted directly to and securely fastened. The lo-profile platforms get cargo low to lessen the effect of the extra weight on your Jeep and do not limit your loads to the constraints of sidewalls or basket enclosures. These platforms are strong enough to walk on when fastened.
Note: Adding racks and/or accessories to the exterior of your vehicle may increase wind noise especially on models with soft-tops, sky-tops, etc.
Note: Does NOT fit on a JL 4XE due to the recharge port location.
Note: Does NOT fit on a JL 392 due to a taller cowl/hood.
Note: The front hoop kat-walk (R75080) is sold separately.
