This item was purchased, because I already have 1 Thule upright bike carrier and like it. It is an older style, but similar. The thing that I like about the upright roof carriers is that if someone hits your car from behind, your bikes are not destoyed too. Also, the upright ones are secure and "stay" there, and the front wheels do not have to be taken off and reconnected and brakes readjusted. A lot of bother if wanted to just take the bikes off and ride. I do have to have a little stool to reach my Jeep roof, but it is claspable and stores in my Thule carrier box. So, yes, the Thule box and 2 upright bike carriers fit on a Jeep Cherokee. Care [ASIN:B0001HACDM Thule 599XTR Big Mouth Upright Rooftop Bicycle Carrier]

Great rack that fits my Volvo V70 removable sport bars. This rack is well built, very easy to operate from the ground. It securely clamps the oversized aluminum tubes of my son's trek. I have noticed a slight decrease in fuel mileage over using a wheel off bike rack.

This bike rack was easy to install, and it is easy to use. No need to take off a wheel, the bike is very secure up there.You do need to have the thule roof rack to use this bike rack. It's just the bike rack, not the roof bars.
