Garvin Industries Wilderness Safari Racks
 

Has anyone used the TJ version, I need storage space and have heard these
are some of the best made racks. I dont do any serious offraod
angle stuff, so I am not concerned with overhead weight(within
reason) Comments??

I have one & like it. The screw-down method of securing the swing-away
prevents rattles but it's kind of a pain to have to screw and unscrew every
time. Tip...Throw away the threaded long-nut assemblies for the holes you
have to drill in the rear crossmember inboard of the frame rails. Rather,
drop the fuel tank so you have good access to the inside of the crossmember
and use nuts and washers on those bolts. It's not difficult to drop the
tank.

OK I just re-read the subject, and you are talking about the SAFARI rack,
not the swing away tire carrier. Oops.

Anyway, I was talking about the tire carrier. Don't have the safari rack.

I had a standard fixed Wilderness Rack on my 91 XJ. I would never
recommend a Garvin roof rack to anyone - the finish is poor and the
steel and hardward rust quickly. It might be ok for a desert climate.
If cosmetics are irelevant to you, they are functonal and tough. And
heavy. Your TJ will wallow in turns once you load the rack with gear.

A trailer makes a lot more sense to me.

I've seen different prices for this depending on where and on the
moment so don't necessarily shop here - that said, a Congo Cage and
Serengeti are on my list after shopping around for quite awhile.
Careful, they can load and change the handling alot.

Re: Garvin Industries Wilderness Safari Racks
 

I don't have either rack, but what I've see of the Top 5 Racks I was
impressed. No tilting of the rack to take down the soft top.

If I were to get a rack, this is the best I've seen so far.

just my $0.02

Re: Garvin Industries Wilderness Safari Racks

If I were to get a rack, this is the best I've seen so far.

just my $0.02
