Jeep Wrangler Grab Handles: The Right Handle for Every Model

Published July 19, 2026 · Bartact Team · Temecula, CA

Not all Wrangler grab handles are the same — and not all Wranglers are the same. Here's how to pick the right handle for your specific Jeep.

JL & JLU (2018-2026) — Bolt-On Required

If you have a 2024+ JL or JLU, you have roll bar airbags. Strap-over handles that loop over the roll bar are not safe on these vehicles. Our bolt-on handles mount to the existing OEM bolt holes — no roll bar contact, no airbag interference, fully safe.

Even on pre-2024 JL models without roll bar airbags, bolt-on is the better solution. More secure, quieter, no shifting or squeaking.

JK & JKU (2007-2018) — Roll Bar Style or Bolt-On

The JK roll bar doesn't have airbag concerns, so you have more options. Our paracord grab handles for the JK mount to the A-pillar roll bar and front roll bar in the OEM positions. Multiple colors, 550 paracord construction, made in the USA.

TJ (1997-2006) — Classic Roll Bar Mount

The TJ roll bar mounting positions differ from the JK and JL. Our TJ door grab handles are designed specifically for the TJ geometry — they fit properly and look like they belong there.

Why Paracord Over Rubber or Plastic

• Grip — textured surface grips with gloves or wet hands
• UV resistance — doesn't fade or crack outdoors
• Doesn't get slippery — unlike smooth rubber in the rain
• Looks better — paracord weave is distinctive, not generic
• 30+ colors — actually customizable
