Here at Rack Attack, one question remains constant: “Can I get a rack atop my new Liberty with the sliding roof?” The answer is: absolutely. Now the Jeep will be able to carry an extra 130lbs of cargo atop the roof, and the crossbars may be attached and removed in under one minute. This will allow you to take your kayaks, your bikes, cargo container or whatever-else-you-think-of to your destination, all while enjoying the open air feeling the Liberty Skyslider roof can provide!
Equipment used in this application consists of:
Thule 430R Rapid Tracker Foot Pack
Thule RB47″ Aluminum Load Bars
4 – Pack of Thule Locking Cores (Never forget your locks!)
This was the perfect solution for our client who had already purchased a Thule cargo container, and bought a vehicle that Jeep does not offer a rack for! Not only does this Thule system feature removeable crossbars, but being track-based, it allows you to spread your bars up to 40″ apart for long loads, or bring them in close together to perfectly fit your skiis and snowboard bindings into your snow-sport racks. If you find yourself in a similar (and very common) situation with your new Jeep, give us a call (888.399.RACK) or stop on in!
