Question:
Does Thule make any racks for jeep rubicon 2021 with sky one touch soft top? Needs to clear the soft top remotely going back. I do have rain gutters.

One thing that may cause confusion is determining whether your Jeep has a hard Top or a soft top. If it has rain gutters, then technically, your 2021 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon has a hard top with a Sky One Touch Power Soft Top. The following recommendation is NOT a fit for Jeep Wranglers with total soft tops.
That being said, yes! There's a Thule rack that can fit your vehicle! The confirmed fit is the Thule System with 60" Long Wingbar Evo Crossbars # TH711520 and 5" Gutter Feet # TH300R, but when test fit on a 2020 Jeep Wrangler, there was on 2-1/2" of clearance between the bottom of the bars and the top of the roof.
I know your sky one touch roof folds up as it opens. If you take some measurements as it folds, you can see if 2-1/2" is enough clearance. If not, the the 8" Tall Gutter Feet # TH33ZR are a better fit for you. The 8" version is not a confirmed fit by Thule, but it works the exact same way and will give you that extra roof clearance if you need it. It also has a weight capacity of 165 lbs.
