This Wrangler is TOUGH!
This 1999 Jeep Wrangler was already one tough ride when it first came into our shop. With a Jeep snorkel, lightbar, and winch this thing was almost the ultimate off road vehicle….. almost! When heading out to the middle of the swamp to test out the mean-ness of the beast there are some more parts, accessories, and general cargo that need to come along with you. Anyone thats ever been inside the Wrangler knows that, though its a perfect off-roading vehicle, there isn’t much space left in the back of the vehicle to haul the rest of your gear. Enter the Yakima Loadwarrior, a 44″ x 39″ x 6.5″ basket capable of carrying nearly anything you can fit up there.
Yakima Control Towers and Landing Pad 1
To start off this project we needed to set up a Yakima base rack system to connect the Yakima Load Warrior to. The Yakima base rack that we decided on was a custom, permanent fixed point setup that is capable of carrying up to about 100lbs of cargo. The Yakima Landing Pad 6 is a great “bolt-through” option that works out great on vehicles with fiberglass roofs or toppers. The Yakima Control Towers are used to connect the 58″ crossbars to the LP6 that is permanently mounted on the vehicle. The pieces used to create this Yakima base rack system were the following:
Yakima Control Towers (set of 4)
The Yakima Loadwarrior really ties this beast together!!!
The next piece we added to the Yakima base rack system was the Yakima Load Warrior. The Load Warrior is a cargo basket that measures 44″x39″x6.5″ and can carry anything from coolers and containers, to an axe and shovel. Also available from Yakima is an extension that will extend the length of the basket by 18″, as well as a stretch cargo net to keep all of your cargo on top of your vehicle while you’re trompin though the forrest!!
