GOBI Stealth Rack Arrived and Installed (Pics)

[YaThatAintRight]

interested to know the height of the Jeep after installing the Mopar 2" lift - are you running 35s? kinda looks like...

I'll measure after I install the lift. They are actually 37s!

Are you going to put lights on your Gobi Rack?

Amazing setup. Well done, sir.

It's crazy how much more your rear tires are tucked compared to mine, and I have the "larger" 37" STT Pros. Maybe you have more weight in the cargo area or something. How bad is your rubbing right now with no lift?

I just took mine off but I was 2-3 inches shorter then 7feet with a Rk 2.5 and milestar 37’s

There is a very slight whistle at highway speed. It doesn't really bother me, but I'm going to try a few minor tweaks to see if I can't get rid of it

Have carried any heavy gear atop yours yet. Another thread we have going about Gobi installed, that OP developed bent parts after using his RTT. I haven’t carried any gear on mine (only just installed rack in last month)-but his issue has me worried. He also mentioned having to use red loctite in all nuts/bolts

Thanks for sharing, also looking to get a gobi rack. Was also going to try and integrate my backbone rack system that can handle 300/900lbs to help support the rack.

Anyone have a picture of the rack with the soft top in the Safari setup?

How difficult is it to remove the rack? I have a soft top and would prefer to not have it on unless I was going on a trip. Leaving the front part on would be fine if that is an option,

You can pull the back part off pretty easy
Alittle more invasive to pull the front off

You could just leave the front part on? Especially if you put lights on it.

Yes
I actually think they sell just the front or they did for jk’s

900 pounds sounds awfully heavy. Even if you figure a way to support that much weight, i would think it’s going to make your Jeep very susceptible to rollover.

Probably that load rating is doable when stopped (roof tent?), but I totally agree with not loading three upright pianos and driving around lol
