How to Add Awning to 2022 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited With Sky One-Touch Top

Question

Question:

Hi, I have a 2022 Jeep Rubicon with the one touch sky roof, I would like to know if the Thule Hideaway Awning is compatible with the Jeep no roof racks. If so is there special hardware I need to attach the awning to the vehicle? TH490018

So you can definitely add an awning to your 2022 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with the Sky One-Touch top, but not with the direct-mount Hideaway; you'd need to add a roof rack and then an awning that attaches to the crossbars of the rack. So first, for the roof rack, here is what you'd need:

- Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Silver # RRVA150S-2 or Black # RRVA150B-2

- Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Legs - Gutter Mount # RL210S2

- RLTP Leg Adapters # RRVA-FK1-2

You will still be able to open the One-Touch top even with this rack installed, and this will allow you to use any of the following awnings, depending on how much shade you want.

Thule
- Thule Overcast Awning - 6' 6" Long x 6' 6" Wide # TH8002AW604

Rhino-Rack
- Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning - 8' 2" Long x 6' 11" Wide # RR32133
- Rhino-Rack Batwing Awning - 118 Sq Ft # RR33100

Yakima
- Yakima SlimShady Awning - 8' Long x 8' Wide # Y96VR
- Yakima SlimShady Awning - 6-1/2' Long x 6-1/2' Wide # Y36VR

Since the Thule Wingbar Evo roof rack of your 2023 Jeep Wrangler 4xe #TH711520 #TH65BJ has top channels the Rhino Rack Batwing Awning part #RR33100 would fit without requiring any adapters.

Answer 5

For a roof rack to be compatible on your 2020 Jeep Wrangler with Sky One-Touch Power Top, it can't be mounted on the top of the roof and it needs to be high enough for the folding roof to clear. What you need are tall gutter-mounted roof racks.…
