BRIGHTLINES Roof Rack Cross Bars for 2011–2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee — Grooved Rail Fit, Lockable Aluminum, 150 lb Capacity

BRIGHTLINES Roof Racks Cross Bars are lockable aluminum crossbars engineered to fit 2011–2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee models with grooved side rails, providing a secure, lightweight platform for carrying bikes, cargo boxes, kayaks and more.

If you need a reliable roof-carrying solution made specifically for Grand Cherokee models (Laredo, Limited, Upland, Trailhawk, Overland and Summit) from 2011 through 2021, these cross bars deliver sturdy performance without adding excessive weight. They are designed to mount to vehicles that have grooved side rails — they will not fit Altitude or SRT trims — and include everything required for a straightforward installation: two lockable crossbars, four mounting brackets and an instruction manual. Built from high-grade aluminum, the bars resist corrosion while supporting up to 150 lbs when the load is evenly distributed.

How do these cross bars attach to my Grand Cherokee?

The system clamps to grooved factory side rails using four mounting brackets that secure the crossbars in place. Installation follows a clear sequence in the included manual and uses the vehicle’s existing rail geometry for a snug fit without drilling. Locks on the crossbars add theft deterrence and keep accessories secure while parked.

• Designed for grooved side rails—verify your model’s rail style before ordering
• Includes four mounting brackets for a factory-style fit
• Lockable ends for added security of bars and mounted gear

What can I carry, and how much weight will the bars support?

The BRIGHTLINES crossbars are rated to carry up to 150 lbs when weight is spread evenly across both bars. They are compatible with common roof accessories such as bikes, cargo boxes, skis and kayaks, enabling versatility for weekend trips and outdoor activities. Keep loads balanced and follow accessory manufacturer guidelines for safe transport.

• 150 lb maximum load capacity (evenly distributed)
• Works with roof bags, cargo boxes, bike mounts, ski carriers and kayak cradles
• Aluminum construction minimizes additional vehicle weight

Will these fit my Grand Cherokee trim and years?

They are not compatible with Altitude or SRT trims and will not fit vehicles without the grooved rail design shown in the product pictures. Confirm your vehicle’s rail style before purchasing to ensure compatibility.
