Just wondering, but has any one on here ever taken the roof rack (including rails) off of their XJ. Mine have the damn rubber grommet/nut that the bolt threads into, but over time the rubber got soft so the bolt just free wheels inside it. Most of the gromets are ruined so I don't want to reuse them, but they're somthing like $5 per at Chrysler and I need 12, so there it is. The Chrysler parts department has some good guys in it though and they gave us some pretty wierd nuts that might just work. Honest to god, they look like bullet casings with threads in them, the threads fit the stock Jeep Torx bolts, but I think the new nuts might be too tall to fit into the holes in the roof for the roof rack. Any advice here would help.
