The Gobi Stealth Rack is a Very strong & well built rack suitable for carrying large loads such as kayaks, additional camping gear for touring or roof top tents. Great if you want to make the JK into a tourer or to add additional cargo space for weekends, or when there's more than 2 people in the car. Super sturdy rack, and can fit a lot, I used it for large items like large tents, swags, or 2 kayaks, or when on long trips to put large items up there to free up room in the boot for the additional water & supplies needed. It will provide years of reliable service. Below are the details:

- Low wind noise - it's still a roof rack though

- 2 positions to mount lights at the rear
- Easy to install / uninstall form Jeep (about 1 hour, 2 man job to lift things, basic hand tools)

This Gobi Stealth Rack was used for camping and carrying kayaks, and has light signs of wear, such as some abrasian on the bars and some small chips from stones Parts exposed to the road, such as the rear brackets have minor rust from use. Pads were used to protect the bars when in use and the powder coat is in very good condition. Small chips in powder coat have been periodically touched up. No major issues.
For some parts, such as protective panels which are not transferable to a new vehicle as they use adhesive, I have sourced new replacements. The front attachment to the B pillar mounts I have purchased a suitable material to replace the foam padding.Everything in good knick, and ready to use. Selling the roof rack as I'm selling my Jeep.
