Snailfly Roof Rack Cross Bars for 2011–2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee — Aluminum Alloy, 220 lb Capacity

Snailfly roof rack cross bars are a custom-fit aluminum luggage rack for 2011–2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee (excluding High Altitude, SRT, Trackhawk and Grand Cherokee L 2021+), rated to carry up to 220 lbs.

These low-profile cross bars replace or mount to the factory side rails and provide a corrosion-resistant platform for cargo boxes, bikes, rooftop tents, and other gear. Made from high-quality aluminum alloy, the set includes two crossbars sized specifically for the Jeep Grand Cherokee — the front bar is longer than the rear — and installs without drilling or permanent modification.

Will these cross bars fit my Jeep Grand Cherokee model year?

They are engineered to fit Jeep Grand Cherokee model years 2011 through 2021 when equipped with factory side rails, but they are not compatible with High Altitude, SRT, Trackhawk trims, or the Grand Cherokee L (2021+).

• Compatible with 2011–2021 Grand Cherokee with factory side rails.
• Not for High Altitude, SRT, or Trackhawk versions.
• Do not fit Grand Cherokee L models from 2021 onward.

How durable and weather-resistant are these Snailfly cross bars?

Constructed from aluminum alloy, the cross bars resist rust and corrosion better than steel alternatives while maintaining a lightweight profile. The low-profile finish reduces exposure to the elements and preserves the bars’ appearance through regular use.

• Aluminum alloy construction for corrosion resistance.
• Powder-coated or anodized finish keeps surfaces protected.
• Designed for long-term roadside performance and low maintenance.

How easy is installation and what hardware is included?

Installation is straightforward and clamps to the factory side rails with no cutting, drilling, or permanent changes required. The package contains two cross bars (front longer than rear) and the necessary mounting hardware and instructions so you can install or remove them quickly.

• Mounts directly to factory side rails without modifications.
• Two bars included: distinct front and rear lengths for correct fitment.
• All mounting hardware and instructions provided for a simple install.

What load can these cross bars handle and how quiet are they on the road?

The Snailfly cross bars carry up to 220 pounds, making them suitable for most roof boxes, luggage loads, and recreational gear. Aerodynamic profiling minimizes wind noise during highway travel, delivering a quieter ride than traditional boxy racks.

• Maximum static load capacity: 220 lbs (100 kg).
• Aerodynamic, low-profile shape reduces wind noise at speed.
• Stable platform for rooftop carriers, tie-downs, and mounts.

Who is this for: These cross bars are ideal for Jeep Grand Cherokee owners who want a durable, no-drill roof cargo solution that preserves vehicle aesthetics and supports substantial loads for weekend trips, outdoor gear, or occasional heavy cargo. If you drive a Grand Cherokee with factory side rails (and not a High Altitude, SRT, Trackhawk, or Grand Cherokee L 2021+), need a corrosion-resistant aluminum option, and prefer quick installation and low wind noise, this Snailfly set is designed for you.
