Not trying to pick a fight or anything... You mean that you never had to do hard braking in your life to avoid a moron in a parking lot, at a crossroad or anything?
in any case, it’s illegal here in Quebec to have unthetered dogs in the back seat let alone in the bed of a truck. and I...
Thank you! My Jeep is a lease, and although I'm willing to spend the money on the rack and lose some $ when I resell it used, I would like to avoid to change the soft top too...
Gents, for those who run a Gobi or a LoD rack with a soft top...
I’m worried about wear and tear on the soft top as some have commented on rubbing at speed when the roof »puffs » up... the clearance seems to be really tight when you consider the fabric puffing up by at least 1.5 to 2 in...
Ressussitating this thread... for those running that rack with soft top, any wear and tear from the top rubbing on the transverse bars at speed, when the roof puffs up?

Another question: when wheeling or just driving around top down, do you go for a one-piece bikini top, or a two piece which would allow to protect the dogs while giving the option of the hooomans getting direct sun in the front?
I repurposed construction fall arresters with 6ft leads each which stop a quick movement like a collision or a dog trying to jump off the Jeep in about 3 in. hooked to a harness. it both allows movement within the JLU rear seats down area, and since it is attached to the sport bar and since it...
This is second-hand data, but people I met on the trail told me that it can b difficult on dogs as they don't anticipate movement like we do, therefore they do get thrown about quite a bit, especially dogs that tend to stay up. My Bernese lie down when it gets too rowdy during normal driving...
Solution installed and tested. dogs barely take more than 18 - 20 in of leash. I need to create a better sport bar mount, probably using a home made metal clamp in order to keep the winders higher and removing the extra inches added by the motorcycle tie-downs. After a few rides, the...
