HI Wilcagle,

I'm looking for the same too. So far, I found Gobi Stealth and LOD. the Gobi rack has a hinge on the back mounts which allows to tilt back the whole rack and fold the soft top down. The LOD rack has a side sliding platform to clear the top and fold it.

However, my research seems to show that the soft top may rub on the rack at speed, when it "blows up". So far, I never got any response from anybody if this is a true issue or not. The last thing you want is to invest on $2,000 worth of rack only to have premature wear on the top!

My thoughts exactly. Looks like manufacturers have yet to produce something specifically designed for these vehicles. Hoping something will come out soon. Appreciate your response.

I wrote to Gobi today, telling them about my concerns. We'll see if they reply. I will do the same thing with LOD.
