WILD BOAR CARGO RACK SYSTEMS
Whether you are a serious off-road enthusiast, a casual weekend excursionist or a Wrangler aficionado, you know that storage space in your Wrangler is at a premium.  There is not a lot of room to stow your gear without drastically reducing the interior cabin capacity.  That’s fine if you are flying solo or carrying smaller items, but you need a better solution if you have passengers, camping gear, outdoor toys and other large cargo.          

Wild Boar’s Cargo Rack Systems are the most functional cargo solutions available.  Our rack systems received the Chrysler Design of Excellence award in 2001 and we have continued to enhance and improve our rack design every year since.

CONSTRUCTION
Our award-winning rack systems are constructed of 1½ inch tubular steel with solid-weld construction for durability and strength.  With a black marine powder-coat finish to withstand the elements, rubber saddle dampeners to eliminate rack rattle between the rack frame and the detachable cargo basket, quick-release spin knobs to lock the basket down and gas-powered shocks to hold the basket in the upright position when it is open, the 2008 Wild Boar Cargo Rack system is the ultimate in rack design and functionality.

Our Cargo Rack systems feature a low profile design.  The rack design hugs the lines of the wrangler while only adding 7 inches to the overall height off of the hard top (6 inches from the highest point of the soft top).  The removable cargo basket contributes 3.5 inches to that number.

ADJUSTING YOUR TOP
Jeep owners have long recognized that the problem with traditional cargo rack designs has always been how to adjust or change the top after installing a cargo rack.  This has been a particularly vexing problem for owners of soft tops.  Roof mounted cargo racks are not an option for soft top owners and body mounted cargo racks often require either partial rack disassembly or soft top strut support disassembly to remove the soft top.

Wild Boar’s quick-release, tilting basket allows for the full range of soft top adjustments.  No more jumping through hoops just to take your top down.  Simply unlock the two spinner knob controls and the gas powered shocks help tilt the basket up and out of the way.  Adjust your soft top and push the basket down in place and lock the spin knobs and you are done.

Hard top adjustments are just as convenient.  Wild Boar’s Cargo Rack design allows all standard and aftermarket hard tops to slide through the back of the rack frame unhindered.  If you have a Jeep Freedom top, or a Wild Boar Fastback T-Top, there is ample clearance below the cargo basket for you to adjust your over-head panels.  And you can always tilt the basket up and out of the way for even more room.

OPTIONAL CANOPY
Wild Boars patent-pending rack design offers even more utility.  The quick-release tilting basket opens a full 180 degrees to accommodate an optional Wild Boar canopy accessory.  2007 model cargo racks for the JK 2-door tilt the basket to the rear of the vehicle while all of the new ’08 models for both 2-door and 4-door Wrangler TJ and JK models tilt the basket to the passenger side of the vehicle.

MOUNTING COMPATIBLITY & ACCESSORIES
Our rack systems are compatible with a variety of Hi-Lift, Thule, Yakima, and AutoHome clamp & mounting systems.  Wild Boar offers a full range of rack accessories including lighting, camper-tops, canopies, rack pads, straps and cargo nets to help you get the most from your Cargo Rack.

RECOMMENDED USAGE GUIDELINES
Wild Boar Cargo Rack Systems have a recommended operational (moving) capacity of 200 lbs and a stationary capacity of 1000 lbs.  The manufacturer of your vehicle has a specified GVW (gross vehicle weight) limitation. This is based on stock springs, tire dimensions, body strength and other specifications.  Aftermarket parts, such as oversized tires, lift kits, and shock replacements will further alter the GVW and the vehicles safe operational center of gravity. You must remember that any load that you place on top of your vehicle will significantly change the center of gravity, handling, maneuverability and braking characteristics of your Wrangler and may increase the vehicle’s tendency to roll over. Always keep this in mind as you stow gear on your cargo rack.  Be sure to distribute the weight evenly, secure the cargo fully and NEVER exceed the manufacturer’s cargo weight recommendations or you may put your vehicle and yourself in danger.

EASE OF ASSEMBLY
Wild Boar Cargo Rack systems are incredibly easy to assemble and install.  With only 4 points of installation, two of which use the existing front windshield brackets that are used for mounting, you will be up and running in no time.  Just grab a friend, a drill with a 5/16” bit, a ½” wrench, and an Allen wrench and a rubber tapping mallet and follow the directions and your rack will be assembled and installed in approximately 30 to 45 minutes.

WARRANTY
Wild Boar Cargo Rack systems all come with a one year nationwide warranty.  If your Wild Boar Cargo Rack system fails during normal operations you are covered.

    Looks awesome, I would love to have one of these.

    This is one well thought out and engineered piece of gear. Flexible enough to utilize other manufacturer’s add-ons and tough enough to handle a decent load weight.
    That awning addition is outstanding. If you’ve ever stopped for any appreciable time in the desert sun, a little shade can go a long way in providing some extra comfort.
    The JK is the first jeep I’ve owned and the roof rack seems like a natural add on to free up some interior space.

    This looks like an awesome product, very versatile.I could certianly use one because I didn’t get the unlimited JK and the 2Dr is a little tight on storage space.Thanks for the giveaway on Project JK site.

    Turthfully not a bad product but I honestly would never have a canopy that looks like the one on your website hanging off of my 08 JK. You had me until I saw that. Reminds me of my grandma’s porch, not trying to be negative but you should know!

  9. wildboartechsupport May 4th, 2008 12:03 pm

    Lucky for you, the Canopy is optional and not included in the rack purchase.

    We are coming out with nylon canopies soon that will feature a variety of colors and a straight edge detail for those who prefer a more contemporary look.
