Important notes before you order
- Drilling required.
- If equipped with a factory snorkel, removal of the upper elbow is required to allow clearance of the cargo rack.
- Warning this rack allows a load to be carried at an elevated level over the vehicle.
- Carrying an elevated load can cause the vehicle to become top heavy and easier to roll.
- Use caution when carrying an elevated load.
- Seatbelts and shoulder harnesses should be worn at all times.
- Avoid situations where a rollover may occur.
- Be sure contents carried on the rack are secure and will not shift during travel.
