Default Help - JKU Uneek Roof Rack Issue

Hey Guys,
I just got a Uneek roof rack, is it normal for the roof rack to fowl on the Drivers side softtop?
I've tried everything to get it to lift higher so it won't touch, but its impossible.

*edit - Mounted using chassis brackets*

Any advice??

I have it mounted using chassis brackets.

Maybe I can look at fitting some spacers to raise it....

But when you spend $3k its a bit of a kick in the balls.

Overall though, the rack is built nice, and is light.

Yeah, I contacted, Craig, and sent the pictures.

He said it shouldn't be touching, and he informed me I need to adjust the brackets.

If anyone else got any information, I would love to hear from you.

No one can tell you what's going on if you don't show photos of the rear top and lower mounts. We'd be just guessing.
