I made this rack for my Grand Cherokee in 2005. It is all aluminum and the brackets were designed to fit the roof nutserts (10 anchor points) instead of bolting to the factory plastic feet. It worked great for years and removing it was the first thing done to prepare the WJ for sale. Now I am scrapping the old bed liner in preparation for slicing off the WJ brackets, recoating, and rewiring lights. I also have a set of Gamiviti gutter mounts.
Since I was never set up to weld (especially aluminum), I had someone else do that part. It is finally time for the bugger welds to meet an angle grinder. I originally left them ugly on purpose.
I am leaning towards Dulplicolor bed liner. Internet consensus seems to be that it works well, is inexpensive, and easy to get. I originally had a truck accessory shop do it for $50 at the same time as someone's bed so I was basically getting the leftover product. Open to suggestions.
