...I'm not sure this falls under "mods" but if you are poor like me, these are the crossbars I got on Amazon for $45. They seem sturdy enough for anything that I would put on top of the Jeep. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00XZ78W3C?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
Wow, that's dirt cheap!! Can you tell us if they make any noise in the wind? I mean, even if they did a bit, that's still a great buy.
Sight wind noise at ~45mph, moderate wind noise at ~70mph. No whistling though. I did have to take the end caps off and cut the bottom off with an x-acto knife and then I superglued them onto the rails, there is a set they sell that's about 4" longer if you didn't want to do that.
