- Strongest Rack for WK2
This is without question, the very strongest roof rack on the market. Heavy duty steel tubing, the same stuff used in competition roll cage. 3/8″ Mounting hardware. You cannot find a safer and stronger rack, fact!
We understand there is a new trend for flat plate bolt-together rack setups. Those kits admittedly look very pretty, stylish. The simple fact is that those side plates with extruded aluminum spars in between, are far weaker in dynamic load carrying situations (offroad). The aluminum can and does fracture. The small metal screws that tap into the aluminum extrusions and hold to the flat side rails, can work loose inside the soft aluminum.
Those pretty flat panel racks have strength ratings far below that of our welded steel tube rack system. If you’re looking for something that can hold an RTT, fuel, water, spare tire, heavy equipment on top, and do it reliably in rough overlanding situations, the Rocky Road kit is simply the very strongest and utilitarian on the market.
WK2 Roof Rack
If you’ve been looking for a rack system built for the adventure enthusiast, Rocky Road has what you need, look no further. The Rocky Road WK2 roof rack serves as a mounting system for important offroad accessories. Also great for use such as hauling lumber, plywood, or other oversized items.
The Rocky Road WK2 roof rack provides a great carrying system at the lowest of low profiles. This provides for excellent advantage to wind resistance and maximum fuel economy. All of our accessory mounts pop on and off in a minute so you can customize your rack however you want, by yourself, in a moment’s notice to again maximize fuel economy and flexibility of use.
Grand Cherokee owners who have installed a lift and/or are running larger than stock tires, you may have discovered your spare tire sits inside of the vehicle in a small pocket. If you want a full size spare, you are out of luck, because a larger tire ain’t gonna fit in there. Our Adventure rack offers the perfect tire carrying solution. Notice in all our pictures the spare tire mounted securely to the rack. We use a steel pre-runner style clamp for a safe secure tire mount, but also a pretty cool look.
WK2 Steel Roof Rails
This incredibly strong rack does require the Rocky Road steel roof rails. These steel rails bolt to the factory mounting points in the tracks on your roof. All bolton, no cutting, drilling, or other modification needed. Mounts tight and secure for the most rugged on and offroad use. Perfect for the ultimate world safari expedition, or for just traveling around town. Rocky Road steel rails will also work for other rack systems which may come to market in coming years. The rails are required for our rack system and shown in each photo. They are the side rails to which the rack attaches. The Rail kit is sold separate and is required to run the Adventure rack system.
- Spare tire mount. Our kit uses a cool prerunner style mount with an easy to use T-handle for tightening and securing.
- You can pack along extra items such as an axe, shovel, axe and shovel. Or with anything else with a similar handle using our accessory mount.
- The HiLift jack mount gives you a nice secure place to store this essential offroad tool. We use an official HiLift jack mount kit which allows you to lock your jack into place. Holds jacks up to 60″.
- Forward light mount gives a great place to mount auxiliary lights. Our mount puts them up high to rid that hood glare you get from lower mounted lights. Our light bars come with 3 or 4 light positions. Use the center mount for other items such as a CB antenna.
- Fuel or water carriers are a great item to have along for a weekend adventure, or your dream road trip. Racks allow an assortment of fuel or water cans. The single can carrier kit holds 2 containers.
WK2 Rack with Roof Top Tent Capability
ALSO AVAILABLE (not pictured): For those who do not want the full rack kit, but just a set of crossbars on which to mount items like Yakima style bike mounts, Kayak mounts, or other Yakima and other accessories which may be mounted to round crossbars… our CROSSBAR KIT. This kit consists of crossbars which span from one side rail to the other (still requires our steel roof rail kit). Adapters may be required for some accessories. Adapters are available through roof rack manufacturers.

All components come in a very durable black powdercoat finish and look excellent next to the factory roof rails. The whole system is UPSable to anywhere in the world.
