Let me know how you go with that, might be a bit cheaper for 2x. I have the Pioneer Tray as well...

Hello timsarg..I.m all eyes...You show me your's and I'll show you mine..I'll post some photos when I mod my roof rack hope you will too...Compare notes...I'm sure others would be interested..Well those who use their Jeep as offroaders..us 2%.
I was watching a Youtube video about the 2019 Cherokee and Jeeps chief designer saying we listen to owners and the result is the changes to the new Cherokee...Wonder if they are listening to us who want to the use ours as outback tourers and need to load up..Don't think it would be too hard to design in a little bit of bracing to strengthen the roof especially at the rear over the cargo area...Ford Everest and the Colorado 7 (aka Trailblazer) manage to do so and rate theirs as 100kg.

I'm about to order this:
Llams Height Kit, Jeep Grand Cherokee
The Llams kit provides the ability to raise the vehicle by approx 32mm/1.25" or 50mm/2" whilst at normal ride height, therefore without speed limitations, to allow improved ground & bump stop clearance when travelling off road on high crown gravel roads or other off road conditions where extra clearance is required.
https://davisperformance.com.au/llam...dodge-ram.html
Has anyone had or used this??.. Looks promising for my next Simpson trip..Auto lowering is a pain when crossing clay pans above thereshold speed and needing OR1 to cross the next dune and having to raise the vehicle again.

My first WK2 was the prototype for it. It works well, just as advertised.
The unit is plug and play, just pull out the lead from the air suspension controller and plug in the LLAMS lead then plug the lead back into the LLAMS.
It was designed for a standard WK2 so I don't know if the Trailhawk controller is different.
Cheers

Thanks Numb Thumbs... I'll order mine...Trailhawk sits a little higher on OR1 & OR2 I think but according to the LLAMs blurp OR2 should not be selected if system fault logging is to be avoided... Good to know though you guys are happy with it and it is easy to plug in and unplug before service.
Cheers
