I know... Search, etc, etc, yada, yada, yada.
Looking for real world experience with a 2 door half rack, rear clamshell only. Preferably one that you feel comfortable lifting the top off with.

I put the Trailrax 1/2 rack on my 2 door and it seems to work just fine. Added a bit of wind noise but that was expected. I connect my hoist to the 1/2 rack to lift off the top and leave it hanging in the garage. Works fine for me.

I'll second the trailrax half rack. I do have the side pack structure and rarely take my rear roof off. But the trailrax has been fantastic. It's held up very well. You can also use a sunrider quite well with it, so you can have a soft-top front that's easy to flip up and a roof rack on the back. I've been very happy with that combination, personally.

If I were to do such a thing, the JCR would be my weapon of choice.

Instead I use the tractor.
