Are you running a level kit?

Man I can't say with the rough country bar, but I have the rally innovations light bar and then the amber bar is from lasfit, the rally innovations bar is fairly easy to solo, didn't have to much difficulty with it.

Did the basket mount to the rails on the car or did you need to purchase the crossbars separately?I was with the rhino rack pioneer platform at first. Then thinking the Yakima platform. But after deliberation and testing. I came out with a Rola basket from Amazon and the thing has been amazing, not to mention about $300-$400 cheaper then the other two options. The rails on the basket really are a game changer and are something you'd pay extra $$$ for on the other two. Comes with an extender middle piece if you'd want it to be the entire length of the roof but for now the standard length has been plenty extra space for me. Will be mounting a permanent 66L roam case to it in a couple days. Goal is to eventually install a yukka roof rack but for $900 I'm going to being waiting and investing in some other things first.
Some shots of it loaded up with things. Shorter low speed trips heavier items like loaded coolers didn't need to be strapped down, easy to bungie or tie other things down
Also being a gear edc nerd I use these locking carabiners to lock and tie down bags and other things. Matador equipment makes them. They are so freaking cool for just securing and locking things up anywhere.
Had to purchase cross bars separately, then I flattened em out a bit more so they were "flatter" had a bit of an arch, this got the basket to sit basically flush with the rails. Think total for everything was $240

How'd you go about flattening them?
haha, but for real I did strong arm it over my thigh and press down, it took some force but it worked.

Is there any way you could provide the link to the basket you got? I tried looking on ana
Yeah sadly they are out of stock ?
Apologies did not know before sharing.
ROLA 59504 V-Tex Rooftop Cargo Basket 48 Inches x 37.5 Inches x 4 Inches https://a.co/d/1PF47As
If you're looking to get name brand gear make sure to check Facebook Marketplace, Nextdoor, and Craigslist. I got my Thule basket off Facebook for $75. I've been searching the sites lately for a cargo box. This is a good time of year in my opinion to look. Summer is over and people are looking to sell gear they bought for roadtrips or vacations that they don't want/have space to store.

I understand wanting to personalize your BS.
For me, I'd save for something else like a real Bronco or just save the money.
I was at the dealer yesterday to buy a rear wiper for my Badlands, they had a few upper end full size Broncos and a Bronco Raptor lined up in front of the showroom, they were definitely worth your "money pit" comment, they made the sport look like a toy.
