OK i want to set up my cj so i can use it as a stand for outdoor photography(nice semi-stable platform so i am not standing in a foot of mud or snow while tryng to set up a camera)
also i am feeling fawking lazy and want to just buy one
i see a bunch of premade roof racks some look good and some look like crap and i cant count on what wieght they say they are rated at.
anyone running a roof cargo rack that would handle 195lbs of me and 100lbs(max) of camera gear?
any input would help

OMG!!!! www.jeepsulimited.com :flipoff2:

The Kargo Master congo cage will hold you, but why do you need a roof rack?? You could probably use some tripod heads mounted to the factory "sport" cage or whatever...

Either way, I have the congo cage... it's the beefiest BOUGHT rack I've seen... rated for 500#. I've stood on it and hauled some pretty heavy stuff, too.

i would have went to JU if i wanted some yuppie hold my fawking snowboads to the mall crap !! :flipoff2:
i figured someone here has a "real" rack and actualy uses it
i use my cage (factory "sport" cage LMAO) and duct tape the typod legs to it but come winter that aint gonna happen
head mounts wont work i am using BIG cameras (4x5,8x10,11x14)
Any one else have a rack they use?

My 2cents is a Confer with a grate thrown down. This is what I have on my HT. BUT it doesn't see that much weight, maybe 250 max.
