The Rocklander Front Hoop comes with industrial-grade, corrosion-resistant hardware, is finished in our signature black textured powder coat to protect it against the elements, and has convenient integrated 1" tube handles for additional safety that provide easier access to the Kat Walk accessory and the roof rack.
The Rocklander Roof Trusses are made of strong 2" diameter steel tube and have engineered front bends creating a stronger and sturdier support when out on the trails or on the road. The roof trusses have a low-profile design that keeps the rack's center of gravity as low as possible when loaded. The rack supports 350 lbs (dynamic) and allows for a load capacity of 850 lbs (static).
The trusses are equipped with CNC steel billet clamps that are secured to the front and rear hoop mounts with corrosion-resistant hardware. The trusses are finished in a durable black textured powder coat to protect them against the elements and to keep them looking good.
The rear hoop mount is a three-piece design and is made of strong 2" diameter steel tube and the billet ends are secured with industrial-grade, corrosion-resistant hardware. The rear hoop is finished in black textured powder coat to protect the hoop from the elements and uses a noise vibration dampening, two-piece hi-durometer urethane bushing to prevent squeaks and rattling when out on the trail.
The Rocklander Rear Hoop comes with the Rocklander Hard Top Rear Adapter Bracket. The adapter bracket is made of 3/16" hot-rolled steel, raises the rear hoop and roof trusses to clear the factory hard top with no contact, and allows enough room to remove the Freedom Top without having to remove the rack system.
The rear mounting brackets for the JK rear hoop mount to factory locations at the frame and do not require any drilling or body modifications. The rear frame brackets are CAD-formed, laser-cut, and made of 1/4" hot-rolled steel with an added gusset providing incredible strength and stability for the rack system.
Note: The Rocklander Rear Hoop is designed for a low profile, close fitment to the factory hard top. Factory soft top applications require the rear adapter bracket (R55029) for proper clearance.
Note: The Mod-Rack Stealth Kit (R55061) is sold separately.
Note: The front hoop Kat Walk (R60255) is sold separately.
Note: The Rocklander Rack System is not compatible with the AEV rear bumpers.
