Hi guys. New member here. Just got my Grand Cherokee after years of wanting one. Got the base model in 4x4. It has the flush mounted rails. I think its just a piece of plastic that's covering the holes.

Anyway the rack I want to get is the one from Rocky Road Outfitters. http://www.rocky-road.com/wk2-jeep-grand-cherokee-roof-rack.html. Does anyone have experience with this company? Are they quality? What wind fairing will fit this?

If you want to go that route, you can relace the plastic trim with the oem chrome rails fairly easily, there have been several DIY posts on here.

People keep saying they have the "Flush mounted rails" on the base model. Those are not flush mount rails. Those are NO Rails.

The OEM Chrome Rails are the "Flush Mount Rails".

I have not seen a Jeep WK2 with the OEM Raised/Bar type rails (like the 2002 GC had).

Flush mount means there is a Channel that you attached things to (e.g. cross rails) from the top (or Rocky Road type Bars). The other style is a factory bar that you attach something around the Bar (like a Rocky Road).

Following up with this thread to see if anyone ever purchased the Rocky Road Outfitters roof rack for their WK2? I'm looking into this but I'm trying to get feedback on the noise, quality etc from anyone they may have bought and used this setup.
