Hooke Road Overlanding Roof Rack for 2018-2025 Jeep Wrangler JL 2/4 Doors & Gladiator JT, Steel Cargo Basket for Jeep Hard Top Only

I just received this and installed it and it was a breeze. I am very happy with the build of the rack and the design. I added the side Molle racks as well and I am looking forward to taking this on some trails.

The media could not be loaded. Great roof rack for the Jeep Gladiator.Fairly easy to assemble and install. It ls not the lightest rack on the market but well constructed. Have someone help you lift it on top of your jeep.I was impressed on how well it was packaged. I had no issues at all.I also like all the points that wratchet straps can be connected for odd sized items you may need to carry on top of your rig.I am very happy with this rack so far.

Perfect fit! Not only looks good but very well engineered. Have a buddy help you heft it on to the roof as it is not only on the heavy side, but got a bit awkward when my 65 year old dad-bod tried to do it himself. For the record the instructions do suggest a 2 person lift.

Came missing one long screw and another long screw is defective. Manufacturer still has yet to respond to my email (via their website customer service). One of the rubber covers was also defective in size— too big— which causes it to fall off, which then scratched up my car paint. Yeah, I’m stoked about that. Especially since I have to cough up another $70 to touch-up all the damages that this POS rack caused.The biggest issue I have is the clamps that hold the rack in place are poorly measured. It overlaps the door frame, preventing the door from opening. I had to remove the (properly fitting rubber covers) and apply clear vinyl protective tape where the latches meet the car paint. This gave it enough room to allow my doors to open with very minimal friction, if any. But yes, ANOTHER additional cost for this roof rack.Simply the frustration of trying to send this massive parcel back to the silent manufacturer is a headache in itself. I’m still debating if it’s worth returning— my car is already damaged and I’ve spent additional money just to make this product acceptable.In the meantime, I’m still trying to find the right screws/bolts for two empty spots.It performs, but have yet to see how well when attaching bulky and heavy items. but other than that… it’s on my jeep. It is a little noisy, but not enough to be frustrated. This newer design has open areas for the air to flow versus its previous design.

Looks great and very well built, it was just very heavy to put it on top and I WISH IT CAME WITH THE LITTLE SCREWDRIVER because I had a really HARD time to find the one that for it, I had to go to Lowes and try different ones. This is not an easy task for a girl, as for help. After all that it really looks good on my jeep and feels super strong.

I am a woman of 163 inches tall and I was able to lift this by myself and put it on top of my Jeep. All the videos that are attached to this product I followed them step-by-step and I have not had a problem with this product shifting moving or anything while on top of the Jeep. It is very secure. I think I’m gonna buy a third leg so I can add a rooftop tent. All in all this product is a five out of five stars.

Box was not damaged but product came damaged with powder coat missing. Decided to avert from usual brand to try a new brand and for the price point I am on the fence. If the box would have been damaged then I would not be as harsh. Unfortunately I do not have time to return and by a different one as I have a short turn around. Hopefully the other Hooke Road products that were ordered with this do not disappoint.It seems to be only one side that is damaged and I may see if just the damaged sections can be ordered and replaced. Have not received an answer back.

Although the reviews are mixed, I found this roof rack to be very well made and it fit perfect. I put this on a 2019 JL Wrangler 4 door. The doors open as they should and the "T" tops can still be removed. The rack and mounts don't rattle, and the wind noise is not excessive. The rack is large enough for a hi-lift jack, shovel, axe, traction boards, tow strap, and other miscellaneous off-road crap. The only down side, if it is indeed a down side, is that you can't reach into the rack to retrieve gear without standing on the door step or rear seat. After installing the rack I ordered a tire step from Amazon to make retrieving gear easier. This rack weights over 60 pounds and is awkward to install without help. Luckily I had an overhead hoist in my shop and was able to position the rack without too much difficulty. I'm not a big fan of the hex head bolts used in the assembly of the rack and mounts, but it is what it is. I would purchase this product again.
