Recommended Platform Rack for a 2016 Jeep Wrangler With Round Crossbars

Question:

I have an after market rack system on my 2016 Wrangler. The frame is 1 1/2 round tube. Front,back,and sides. Will you product attach to round frame?

No, the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack # MPG215 is meant to clamp onto factory raised rails so it's not going to work with your aftermarket round crossbars.

Since you already have crossbars, you wouldn't need to add a set, but what you could do is add a platform rack like the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Roof Rack Platform for Crossbars # RR42115BF if you want more space for storage.

This rack will work with round crossbars and measures 58-3/16" long x 46-5/8" wide x 1-1/2" high so you get plenty of space.
