You might want to check out this website. I'm not sure if they make a holder for eight rods or not.

You can buy them at Breakaway tackle on the island and at Roys.

When you gou to mount your new rack on the bumper of your Jeep, you will find that there is not much room for conventional nuts and it becomes a real pain to mount and remove the rack.
So you are left with 2 choices,
Mount a 2 inch front reciever
or
Use NUTSERTS..
They can be found at Wicks Aircraft supply
http://www.wicksaircraft.com/catalog/product_cat.php/subid=747/index.html
Nutserts are flush mounted used for blind installations ( Jeep Bumper )
Drill the holes, put the Nutserts in place and then collapse them.
Once installed, mounting and removing the rack is a 5 min job and they can support the weith of a fully loaded rack with ease. |

If you can find a brush guard for you model jeep, you can always build your own rod rack. I did that with my explorer and I can have up to 16 rod holders. I only have 14 on there because I want to make sure there is enough room for light to shine out of my headlights. _________________ FISH ON!!,
