Set the Shelf Height Around Your Gear
Keep your fridge, drawers, or recovery gear down low and give lighter items like duffels and camp chairs a place up top. The M.A.S.S. Cargo Shelf is an interior rear cargo rack for the four-door Jeep Wrangler JLU. Choose the shelf position with your gear in the Jeep, and leave room for fridge lids, drawer handles, and anything you need to lift out.
Check Your Top Before Ordering
This M.A.S.S. Cargo Shelf was designed for the four-door JLU hardtop. We’ve installed it on a JLU with a soft top, but top hardware varies. The shelf can interfere with the latch on Bestop soft tops. If the latch can’t close normally, don’t use a bungee or strap in its place.
Drive a Two-Door JL? We now make an adjustable cargo shelf for the two-door Wrangler JL hardtop. See the Jeep Wrangler JL 2-Door Overland Shelf. Installation requires removing the rear seat.
How It Mounts
On the hardtop JLU, the brackets bolt into existing threaded points in the rear roll bars. The two aluminum deck halves bolt together over steel supports. Assemble the shelf first, then lift it into the Jeep and bolt it to the brackets at the height you need. Leave the hardware loose during alignment and tighten it in the order shown in the guide.
Assembly is required. For the hardtop, see the step-by-step installation guide or watch the walkthrough below.
Put Tie-Downs Where You Need Them
Use the dogbone cutouts with compatible single-stud tie-down rings or the M.A.S.S. Ratchet Strap Kit. Move the anchors to suit the load. Edge guards can help keep gear from sliding off the deck, but secure cargo with tie-downs before driving.
Add the optional MOLLE Bulkhead if you want a forward barrier and a place to mount compatible pouches or tools. Split rear edge guards are also available.
Finish Options
If you select steel components only, we powder coat those parts in textured black. See our powder coating guide for color and finish details.

Solid design and construction. The design pattern provides lots of options to tie cargo down. Easy install, follow the instruction. The shelf height is adjustable. I have one of the very larger fridge and drawer units in my JL and the shelf fits perfectly. If you get it painted, the quality of the powder coating is outstanding. Painted parts are exceptionally wrapped for shipping. Have used this shelf on several extended overland trips and I am convinced this company pays attention to detail and quality. Time for me to order more products from them!

Very stout construction! The design is very well thought out and the tolerances were really tight, amazingly so. The powder coating was perfect.

The AAL cargo shelf is outstanding! I have onboard 10g water tank mounted on it and my Keurig coffee maker. I needed the adjustability and the option to take the rails off is a plus.

Best tailgate table on the market! You can’t find a table with this many options. I would of liked to see a slide out but this table is well worth the money spent!

Very happy with the fit and finish on this product. It is well thought out and exceptionally sturdy. The shelf went together and installed easily. I’m waiting on a fridge slide so I will probably need to adjust height again but that will be simple. If anything it might just be overbuilt as I would try to keep heavier items lower in the Jeep. At least I will never have to worry about it being overloaded.
