Default JKU. What roof rack do I need for a roof top tent?
I'm keen to put a roof top tent on my 07 JKU pictured. I was looking at the uneek and pretty keen on it but am unsure if the tent I was looking at, or what tent at all, will fit it? The one I was keen on was the Kwiky from adventure kings I've included a screen shot of the specs. If anyone knows if it will fit could they please help me out with some advice. Or failing that, just steer me in the right direction regarding the best quality roof rack system where I don't lose my bar and snorkel? The levels of confusion are doing my head in.

My advice would be to give Uneek 4x4 a ring and see what they recommend.

If what they suggest is pricey then use the specs of their recommendation to find something that will fit within your budget.

Can have a read through here - this was started not too long ago about racks and tent setups:

Good luck!

Yeah mate I've booked into uneek this coming Wednesday to have their rack fitted with a iine flat top which looks like it'll pretty much accommodate anything I put on it. The oy con as I can see is I'll have to relocate my hilift jack from the back door as I don't think they'll be able to fit it when it's on due to its length. Been looking forward to finally getting a rack and rooftop tent setup, it'll free up the back and make things way simpler.
