I got a basket off of a friend for FREE  it was on a Grand Cherokee
The basket was 8 inches to wide we cut it down to size and will be putting it back together today The things I was looking for some help on are: -Where to get cross bars for my roof rack -How to wire up the lights (getting the wires up there is what I need the most help with) Thanks Everyone |

If you take a look in the "Fabrications" section you will see a lot of ideas on cross bars for mounting baskets. I have 1"X1" steel tubing with the ends capped off for cross bars. They are strong and low profile. The end caps are so water can't get inside and drip rust stains on my KJ. Terry |

check out the Fabrication section, several different ways to do cross bars and wiring a couple different ways as well from drilling a hole through the roof to running the wires down the side of the windshield under the black plastic strip |
