JOYTUTUS Rear Cargo Rack Basket for Wrangler JL 2018-2023 Adjustable Height

I was extremely pleased with the design, quality materials, ease of installation, and value of the JOYTUTUS Rear Cargo Rack Basket. As background, we installed the Cargo Rack into a Jeep Rubicon 2024 4-Door Hardtop. Read on for our experience installing and using the Cargo Rack. -- EXCELLENT DESIGN. The Cargo Rack fits perfectly (with some adjustments discussed later) between the Jeep's roll bars. -- GOOD MATERIALS: The Cargo Rack itself is powder-coated steel, and the mounting hardware is all stainless steel. -- NOT MUCH HEAVIER THAN ALUMINUM RACKS!: I had a concern about adding the weight of the steel Cargo Rack, but after comparing the weights of several fixed-in-place aluminum cargo racks, the JOYTUTUS Rear Cargo Rack Basket was only 10-15 lbs heavier. There is not enough weight to be of concern, especially considering how much more expensive the aluminum racks are. -- GREAT VALUE! After much searching and research, I found that fixed-in-place aluminum cargo racks or rear shelves were 2-4 times the cost of the JOYTUTUS Rear Cargo Rack Basket! The slight added weight of the JOYTUTUS steel rack is of little concern when considering its great value. Other steel racks that mount to the hardtop bolts on the side were also more expensive and compromised the side storage. -- PROVIDES SIDE STORAGE vs. OTHER STEEL RACKS: I had initially purchased another typical style of shelf that is sold in a typical style that mounts to the bolts that hold the hard top. This shelf style used up all the available storage space over the wheel wells. The JOYTUTUS leaves this area entirely open for additional storage bags. See the attached image of an installed bag in this area that is otherwise denied by other shelf styles. -- VERY STURDY: The rack was very sturdy after the installation and tightening of all bolts. See the attached video as we attempt to move the rack as if on a rough road. -- SOLID MECHANICAL ATTACHMENT. On other racks I've had that attached the existing threaded holes in the roll bar, the screw heads would eventually snap off due to the shock and vibration of driving offroad. I have confidence that this won't happen with the JOYTUTUS Rear Cargo Rack due to the size and quality of the bolts used and the additional support provided by the large flat surface plate on the roll bar. -- GOOD NARROW LIP: The lip around the edges of the shelf is 1 1/2 tall, making it very easy to get boxes in and out. -- GOOD WIDE BOLT HEADS: The bolts used to secure and adjust the shelf and every large make getting good torque and adequate tightening with just the hands easy. -- GOOD SHELF STORAGE AREA: The inside dimensions of the shelf are 19 1/2" x 36 1/2". The latter measurement is between the bolt heads -- NECESSARY INSTALLATION MODIFICATIONS: The installation instructions are good; however, there are some fit issues, perhaps unique to the 2024 Jeep Rubicon, that I will detail here. 1) The bolts into the roll bars have a very tight tolerance. Following the provided directions, one of the bolts was slightly off, and I could not get the bolt to engage correctly. I ended up cross-threading to the top few threads in the roll before I determined it would not fit. Closely evaluating the issue, I saw that the soft pad provided to install on the support bracket protects the roll bar's surface set on top of the Jeep's roll bar coating, which is about 1/8" thick. See the attached image showing this fit issue. After trimming the pad to sit on the bare steel of the roll bar vs. the bar coating, the mounting holes lined up, and I could not tighten the bracket in place. A very minor modification and again perhaps something unique to the 2024 Rubicons. See the attached image detailing the above 2) Several flathead screws are used to assemble the shelf, and these are not into self-locking threads. Untreated, these screw will very likely work themselves loose over time on rough off roads. A very simple solution is to add threadlocker to each of these screws before installing. -- MINOR ISSUE: There are no slots or holes in the side wall of the shelf to allow the hooking of bungee cords to help secure the shelf cargo. I could find attachments as is and may well drill my own holes later. -- SHELF ADJUSTMENT NOT TESTED: I did not test the shelf adjustment as it is a feature I would not use. Conclusion: I could not be more pleased with the fit, easy installation, quality of materials, stable storage platform, and value of the JOYTUTUS Rear Cargo Rack Basket.

I'm very impressed with this, it is rock solid. I was a little skeptical if it would be flimsy or rattle, but this thing is built and engineered very well. You can also see there's a lot of slots to mount other things like starlink and fire extinguisher and a lot more, and it's great that it will articulate up if you need extra height storage down below.

I don’t know whats more disappointing- getting instructions with horrible English or getting no instructions. This came with none, but being a handy fella it wasn’t hard to figure out just by looking at the pictures in the listing. Its not super heavy duty. The metal thickness seems pretty stout but the tray is actually two pieces and its held together by a few short screws and an additional metal strip. So don’t expect to use it for heavy loads while doing heavy offroading. But all in all it seems like a good deal. I like that it has two levels you can set it at. It also is not hard to remove if you need to for space.

I know this item clearly states it doesn't fit a 2024 and 2025. I have a 2025 JLUR and while it fits, the shelf doesn't sit in the 'high' level due to the roll bar vinyl trim cover. Another reviewer here side to trim the rubber pads of the shelf. I took it apart, trimmed it as shown, and it still doesn't fit on the high level. This is not a fault of the vendor, as they clearly said it doesn't fit 2025's. The other solution is to take the trim panel off and trim a little bit of it down...which I'm not going to do. I just installed the shelf a half hour ago but it went together very well. I ended up using blue thread locker just because I don't want to deal with vibrations and screws coming loose. It took about a half hour to install the shelf and did not have any issues with it. The only thing is the weight. I really don't know how heavy it is. I should had weighed it but didn't. You can use one person to mount the shelf but it helps with two. It's not abnormally heavy, but I'm just overly sensitive about what goes in the jeep. Other than that, I'm happy with how it turned out. It's about half the price of other racks, got here the next day, and seems sturdy enough!

Long time reviewer here and i put things to the test. So i initially bought this because i needed space to store my things as i travel across america. first impression is that the product is well made, looks cool, love the modularity and easy to install, but...over time the screws holding the 2 pieces together comes loose (i assume some blue locktight can fix this issue.) if you are driving on some bumpy roads the 4 screws that holds it the tray in place comes loose overtime. i took my rig offroading and hitting trails pretty hard and they came loose and rattles quite a bit, and if you got weight on it, it wont drop on you rather just force the screws in like it was jammed in there kinda crookedly. the screws sometime doesnt line up properly and i would have to bend the bars to the tray to make it work and some of the tread doest is all the way though, and trust me i tried to make them all match in tightness etc (this is prior to me going offroad, aka during install) as for value for your monies i spent 240 on this...its quite expensive for that i would pay for it...initially i saw it on sale for $199 and was going to buy it the day i saw it but i had other financial things to take care of. realistically a great selling point for this product would be $185 at most. if they could reach back out to me about this product aka the price point i would gladly change my review but for now i stand strong with my review, and this is just the tip of the iceberg of what i put this through and what i am going to put it through (saying it can hold up to 350lb)

Honestly one of the best adds I’ve done to the jeep. I’m picky when it comes to buying things from Amazon for the jeep but this is so sick. It doesn’t rattle at all. Well constructed and doesn’t feel cheap. Stable at every speed and every corner. I like how it has slits in the platform so I can tie down my gear with bungees. I was worried about my sub getting in the way but it sits perfectly at the rim of it. It actually holds it in place since the bracket broke off (skar box). I also let my dog in from the trunk since it’s easier and at the stock height he’s able to get to the rear seats with no problem. As someone who carries a lot of things in their car this allows me to be more tidy and creative - I could sticker bomb something in the car now. I highly highly recommend this product. It’s literally given me excitement back to the jeep. Sometimes I go outside just to open my trunk and look at it. Buy it now. I’m so happy I’m stumbled upon this product. I used the tailgate security gate for my jeep jk when I had it but this blows it out the water as a storage item.

The quality of this racket is solid. Two issues stand out. The holes are not aligned with the existing side holes of the jeep bars, which makes it a pain to install. Second, when I try to slide it up, the right side bracket hits the metal part and damages the surface. It seems like a double washer is needed on the right side only. Very disappointing. They haven't take any right measurement on this item. I have already install it but not happy at all.

Easy to assemble,didn’t have to rely on instructions hardly at all. Pretty straightforward. Seems to be sturdy. I got a storage bag for the tops and they fit perfectly between the rear seat backs and shelf. Happy with it.

Excelente compra, pero ojo, solo es para JL, muy fácil de instalar y muy práctica

ممتاز وجودتة عالية وفيه ميزة انك تقدر ترفعة اذا بتحمل شي كبير تحت وما اخذ تركيبة نص ساعه wrangler jl 2021

J’ai un Jeep wrangler 2022. S’installe à la perfection. Le plan est clair. Les outils fournis facilite l’installation. Fonctionne tel qu’annoncé. Un des incontournables pour bonifier la gestion du coffre de ce type de véhicule. J’ai suivi les conseils d’autres acheteurs en posant un peu de silicone dans la conception de la tablette afin d’éviter les bruits de secousses. J’ai aussi placé un tapis sur la tablette afin de la protéger et éviter le glissement des items placés dessus. Je l’adore le prix demandé est conséquent dans sa grande solidité. Un gros bravo à ce produit.

MUST GET if you like to go camping or have a wife that likes going crazy when buying groceries. It will keep everything very well organized. Easy to install, you'll need some help just to attach the main thing. Totally worth the price.

I put it together completely first, then gently maneuvered it into place with the rack in the lower position, and I found I was very easily able to start intalling it with one bolt on one side and then start another bolt on the opposite side and finish up by myself. This shelf works a lot better than the last solid shelf I had! : Do not over-tighten the swing arm bolts when putting together.
