Default Roof Rack

Ok so I made a sick roof rack for my 99 cherokee. It is made out of one inch square tubing with four Hella 500's on the front with a hi lift mount and a spare tire mount it is 48x70 with an expanded metal floor. Not bragging but it looks awsome, but im gonna sell it and make a little offroad trailer to haul my junk around. What other year cherokees will it fit on and what is a fair price for it. I will post some pics tom.

That does look good! As far as fitting other year cherokee's, it should fit any year. I would personally pay $100-150 for it, but I'm making my own.

Yeah I am thinking of selling this one or possibly making another one to sell for some extra cash. I really want to make a small offroad trailer. If I decided to sell It I do not know how to go about shipping it? Does anyone have any advice on shipping larger items like this?
