Bye Bye Roof Rack
The time has come. I have had my Surco roofrack on both of my Cherokee’s for over 5 years now. It has taken a number of beatings over the years and was starting to fall apart pretty good…especially after my little incident at Canyonlands National Park last month:
My biggest issue with removing it, was finding a new location for my front license plate, since Colorado requires one…
I found a company called Roc Dog Fabriactions that makes a hawse fairlead license plate bracket, so I figured I would give it a try.
It has inserts that push securely into the hawse fairlead:
Bracket mounted to fairlead:
…and the license plate mounted up:
When I get off the pavement, I can just pull off the whole bracket and throw it in the back of my Jeep.
…and finally, here’s a picture of my Jeep without the roof rack again 🙂
