JOYTUTUS Rear Cargo Rack Basket Compatible with Wrangler

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I was looking for some additional storage in my 2021 Rubicon Wrangler that was flexible. I am very satisfied with the product and it works just as advertised. Install was easy and took about an hour and a half while being distracted by my dogs. The main reason for posting the review is to confirm to the community that it works with the Sky One Touch power roof. Picture attached show 'up' position functioning with an open Sky One Touch power roof. Would highly recommend if you're looking for a solid shelve for the back of your wrangler. Functionality:Allows storage with two different settings allowing you to flex for your mission / trip. Sturdiness:Very solid build, attaches to the built in spots on the wrangler. No rattling or any quality concerns. Noise level:No rattling or noice from the unit.

The media could not be loaded. I was extremely pleased with the design, quality materials, ease of installation, and value of the JOYTUTUS Rear Cargo Rack Basket. As background, we installed the Cargo Rack into a Jeep Rubicon 2024 4-Door Hardtop. Read on for our experience installing and using the Cargo Rack.-- EXCELLENT DESIGN. The Cargo Rack fits perfectly (with some adjustments discussed later) between the Jeep's roll bars.-- GOOD MATERIALS: The Cargo Rack itself is powder-coated steel, and the mounting hardware is all stainless steel.-- NOT MUCH HEAVIER THAN ALUMINUM RACKS!: I had a concern about adding the weight of the steel Cargo Rack, but after comparing the weights of several fixed-in-place aluminum cargo racks, the JOYTUTUS Rear Cargo Rack Basket was only 10-15 lbs heavier. There is not enough weight to be of concern, especially considering how much more expensive the aluminum racks are.-- GREAT VALUE! After much searching and research, I found that fixed-in-place aluminum cargo racks or rear shelves were 2-4 times the cost of the JOYTUTUS Rear Cargo Rack Basket! The slight added weight of the JOYTUTUS steel rack is of little concern when considering its great value. Other steel racks that mount to the hardtop bolts on the side were also more expensive and compromised the side storage.-- PROVIDES SIDE STORAGE vs. OTHER STEEL RACKS: I had initially purchased another typical style of shelf that is sold in a typical style that mounts to the bolts that hold the hard top. This shelf style used up all the available storage space over the wheel wells. The JOYTUTUS leaves this area entirely open for additional storage bags. See the attached image of an installed bag in this area that is otherwise denied by other shelf styles.-- VERY STURDY: The rack was very sturdy after the installation and tightening of all bolts. See the attached video as we attempt to move the rack as if on a rough road.-- SOLID MECHANICAL ATTACHMENT. On other racks I've had that attached the existing threaded holes in the roll bar, the screw heads would eventually snap off due to the shock and vibration of driving offroad. I have confidence that this won't happen with the JOYTUTUS Rear Cargo Rack due to the size and quality of the bolts used and the additional support provided by the large flat surface plate on the roll bar.-- GOOD NARROW LIP: The lip around the edges of the shelf is 1 1/2 tall, making it very easy to get boxes in and out.-- GOOD WIDE BOLT HEADS: The bolts used to secure and adjust the shelf and every large make getting good torque and adequate tightening with just the hands easy.-- GOOD SHELF STORAGE AREA: The inside dimensions of the shelf are 19 1/2" x 36 1/2". The latter measurement is between the bolt heads-- NECESSARY INSTALLATION MODIFICATIONS: The installation instructions are good; however, there are some fit issues, perhaps unique to the 2024 Jeep Rubicon, that I will detail here.1) The bolts into the roll bars have a very tight tolerance. Following the provided directions, one of the bolts was slightly off, and I could not get the bolt to engage correctly. I ended up cross-threading to the top few threads in the roll before I determined it would not fit. Closely evaluating the issue, I saw that the soft pad provided to install on the support bracket protects the roll bar's surface set on top of the Jeep's roll bar coating, which is about 1/8" thick. See the attached image showing this fit issue. After trimming the pad to sit on the bare steel of the roll bar vs. the bar coating, the mounting holes lined up, and I could not tighten the bracket in place. A very minor modification and again perhaps something unique to the 2024 Rubicons. See the attached image detailing the above2) Several flathead screws are used to assemble the shelf, and these are not into self-locking threads. Untreated, these screw will very likely work themselves loose over time on rough off roads. A very simple solution is to add threadlocker to each of these screws before installing.-- MINOR ISSUE: There are no slots or holes in the side wall of the shelf to allow the hooking of bungee cords to help secure the shelf cargo. I could find attachments as is and may well drill my own holes later.-- SHELF ADJUSTMENT NOT TESTED: I did not test the shelf adjustment as it is a feature I would not use.Conclusion: I could not be more pleased with the fit, easy installation, quality of materials, stable storage platform, and value of the JOYTUTUS Rear Cargo Rack Basket.

I see people in the comments have cross threaded bolts - it is easy to do if you are not mechanically inclined.To make installing the two bolts holding the bracket easier, loosen the two T25 torx screws that hold the plastic to the roll bar immediately under the padded brace that sits on the roll bar. Pull the plastic sway from the roll bar, push the bracket down onto the roll bar, then insert then two bolts that hold the bracket on. If they don't screw in finger tight then don't force them, stop, remove the bolts, move things around and try again. Once the bolts are in finger tight then push the plastic back and tighten the two T25 screws.As far as the tray goes it's pretty good. Well made, study, fits well. I'd pay more for an aluminum version which was lighter, but it seems acceptable as it is. Good clearance to the rear seat and the default height is sensible.It will fit the 2024 JL but only with the tray in the bottom position. The top corners of the tray interfere with the plastic on the roll bar. If you want the tray up then you need to unbolt the pivot arms and install down one hole to lower the tray slightly.

The design and fitment can be better, the thumb screw bolts bind up a bit tightening it down to prevent rattling.I also wish it had multiple height settings besides just low or high and built in rings for tie down straps, otherwise it’s a decent design and pretty decent quality.Brackets also fit the XG Gama roll cage cargo storage bags, but you just won’t be able to buckle the lower roll bar buckle, only the upper. Still have decent enough room to access the bags as well.

Product seems ok. However, if you have side bags with molle and/or extinguisher mounted to rear frame post, you cannot install the fold up shelf. I feel that losing the existing side mounted bags outweighs having this shelf.

Easy install. Very quite. Great extra storage. Easily raises up when needed. Only complaint would be the hand screws are hard to turn.

Honestly one of the best adds I’ve done to the jeep. I’m picky when it comes to buying things from Amazon for the jeep but this is so sick. It doesn’t rattle at all. Well constructed and doesn’t feel cheap. Stable at every speed and every corner. I like how it has slits in the platform so I can tie down my gear with bungees. I was worried about my sub getting in the way but it sits perfectly at the rim of it. It actually holds it in place since the bracket broke off (skar box). I also let my dog in from the trunk since it’s easier and at the stock height he’s able to get to the rear seats with no problem. As someone who carries a lot of things in their car this allows me to be more tidy and creative - I could sticker bomb something in the car now. I highly highly recommend this product. It’s literally given me excitement back to the jeep. Sometimes I go outside just to open my trunk and look at it. Buy it now. I’m so happy I’m stumbled upon this product. I used the tailgate security gate for my jeep jk when I had it but this blows it out the water as a storage item.
