Expert Answers about Geo Jeep Tops
- Which Bestop Jeep Top for a 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is the Most Waterproof
- No Jeep soft top (even the OEM ones) are completely waterproof. If rain or snow is allowed to puddle on the roof for long enough, it will eventually work its way through. That being said, the best top to resist rain entering your Jeep is the Bestop Trektop NX Glide Soft Top for Jeep - Convertible Top - Black Twill # B5492317. I've attached a video to show this product better.

- The distance from the ground to the top of the inside edge on the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13171 is 11-1/4" when we installed it on a 2017 Jeep Cherokee.

- There are a few differences between the Pioneer Backbone systems available for your 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with a hard top. Two of the recommended systems are the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack with Backbone Mounting System - 72" Long x 56" Wide # JB0893 and # JB0892. These two systems are basically the same thing, but the difference is that the # JB0893 has the Rhino-Rack quick-release leg system. This means that if you plan on removing the platform rack and then putting it back...

- The difference between the two is that the # ER49FR has a lower profile that would put the underside of the crossbar about 1-1/2 inches above the roof top. The # ER84FR has a taller profile, which would place the underside of the crossbar about 2-1/2 inches above the roof. The right rack for your needs will depend on how much overhead clearance you need and how much clearance to the roof your rack mounted accessories need.
The rack kits include 2 crossbars, 4 brackets and all necessary...

- The Yakima SpareRide part # Y02599 is basically the next generation of spare tire bike rack from Yakima. They discontinued the SpareTime and replaced it with this. The racks are still pretty similar but the SpareRide got upgraded bike frame cradles that can be adjusted and has zip straps for securing the bikes to the cradles instead of the rubber straps. Also there is an upgraded way fro lowering the arms of the rack that make it a bit easier.
I attached a review video for this rack for...

- In regards to using a rooftop mounted tent, there is really no comparison between the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack with Backbone Mounting System part # JB0893 and Roof Rack for Jeep JL and JL Unlimited Hardtop part # ER84FR. The reason for this is because there really isn't a good way to attach a rooftop tent to the platform without modifications so the latter will be a much better option for this purpose. In regards to support, most rooftop tents use a ladder which helps with weight...

- When looking at the Tekonsha proportional brake controllers there are some differences that set each one apart from the others.
At the low end we have the Voyager # 39510 with # 20127. It uses older technology to sense deceleration, only has an indicator light, no display or readout, and you have to manually level it. It also has a narrower mounting range than the other options.
Next up from the Voyager is the Primus # TK90160. This controller has the guts of the original Prodigy brake...

- The clamps on the # TH614 Thule Pulse rooftop cargo box are very similar to the ones Yakima uses in the Rocketbox 14, part # Y07192. Both use a simple hand tightening knob for the clamp mechanism, and both slide easily along the bottom of the cargo box. Either one would tighten up well on the aero style bars you have on your 2013 Subaru Forester.
I have not had a chance to use the Pulse box yet, but I did have an opportunity to use one of the smaller Yakima Rocketbox models on top of...

- Both the Yakima OffGrid # Y07138 and the Thule Canyon XT # TH859XT roof baskets are compatible with round, square, aero, elliptical, and most factory crossbars and both feature comparable weight capacities: 165 lbs for the OffGrid and 150 lbs for the Atlas. That being said, the quick installation and huge versatility make the Yakima OffGrid the clear choice.
When it comes to space, the Yakima OffGrid Roof Cargo Basket is 44 inches long by 40 inches wide but there is an 18 inch extension...

- For an off road overland trailer, I recommend you go with the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension System with Hubs - 5 on 4-1/2 - Off-Road Tires - 1,200 lbs # A12WS545 and not just because we carry them...as I know seems like a conflict of interest. The Flexiride system even with a 1,400 lb capacity is not made for off road and the suspension is a torsion system with rubber cartridge on each side. The Timbren system uses more of a jounce style bumper that the company is known for regarding...

- Other than the outward appearance of the more modern-looking Vertex, there are a few other differences between the Vertex # TH9029 and the Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR.
To fold the arms down or to tilt the rack back away from the vehicle, the Hitching Post Pro uses snapper pins that need to be removed, while the Vertex uses quick release latches. Both mechanisms serve the same purpose, but the Vertex latch is easier to use.
Since the Wrangler has the rear mounted spare tire, clearance...
