Had a set of extended bump stops on my last cherokee from and when i went to remove them i came to find out that the inside of the mount was all rusted out so they just crumbled.

Picked up a new set off ebay for only $30 shipped.

Finally got the wrecked jeep all back to stock. Just need to transfer over my room rack. It looks so funny to me after seeing it at 6.5 with 33s for so long.

Thats why i got this one. I did a lot of looking around because i wanted one that could hold a lot of weight. But didnt want to get the rail mounted racks (which is the stronger way to go) but i also didnt want to spend a fortune on a rack just because its made by Warn or some other name brand. After weeks of searching i came up with Kargo Master. Their mounts are solid, their racks are made well, and they have the load capacity i was looking for. Like you i was also looking for a larger rack. This rack is about 3/4 the length of your cherokee's roof. This is the one i have:

This kind helps show how far it goes. Pretty much to where the front door meets the rear door, it goes a bit farther then that but its a good reference point for the comparison.

So didn't get much done on the jeep because I was busy selling the totaled Jeep! Now its out of my driveway. Added a little something to my other toy. Monster shock boot covers.
