Description

Unmatched Strength & Stability - Sherpa Wrangler JLU QDHD Full-Length Aluminum Roof Rack

Jeep JLU owners face an impossible choice: keep your hardtop on for gear-hauling capability but sacrifice that legendary open-air driving experience, or remove the top for freedom but lose your ability to carry essential adventure gear. Traditional roof racks trap you in one configuration, forcing you to pick utility over the pure joy of topless driving.

The Solution: Adventure Without Compromise

The JLU QDHD eliminates this frustrating trade-off. This revolutionary quick-detach roof rack system lets you seamlessly transition between configurations in under 10 minutes—no tools required. Take your factory hardtop off for open-air cruising, then quickly reinstall your fully-loaded rack when adventure calls.

Prop 65

California Residents

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.

The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states. Detailed information regarding requirements for compliance to the California Prop. 65 is can be found at: www.P65Warning.ca.gov

Love it!!!

I love my trailhead roof top tent so much. It is so warm and spacious. Itās very simple to setup and put away. Extremely happy with my purchase. I waited to write a review till I used it multiple times so I could tell if I really liked it or not. Thereās not a thing I would want to change.

Solid and waterproof tent!

We have been on multiple trips with this tent. Its stable and comfortable with a good space for 2+ person to sleep in. Easy to setup and can be taken down under 10 minutes. The tent is waterproof and windproof and can be used during the winter season. Its worth the money and we are overall satisfied with our tent.

Love it!

Looks great and very easy to install. Fits perfectly with no cutting on my Colorado 5 1/2 ft bed. As I unfolded the cover for the first time and each panel locked in place perfectly, I thought, Wow, that was easy.
