No irvs351 mine don't look like that, Jeep seem to make it up as they go along, this happens to wheels, bumpers and now roof racks right throughout the WH range - what year is the Hemi?
Mine sit a lot closer to the roof in the way they mount and are a real bugger to mount a basket onto, yours will be a breeze, spread them as far apart as you can and you'll be able to put a 1600mm X 1200MM Rhino basket on easily.
When you have your basket on the roof lift up the rear door and make sure you have clearance before adding the U-bolts.
The front of the rack should finish about half way along the sunroof - a small price to pay, my sunroof has been open twice in the last six months - to lubricate it!
The other option is to get the small one (1200x900) like I did and then sold it again to get the bigger rack, check it out on some of the roof basket /roof rack websites.
Chumby sounds good mate, can it fit a Rhino roof bag? They're a great asset to keep things dry and hidden from view!
