Great rack. I did the regular one because I wanted the floor inserts. Even with a 3-in lift and their regular roof rack with a Pelican case on top, I just barely cleared my 7 ft garage door opening.
Love the look of this rack , you should be able to use strip caulk to put under block mounts to keep water tight instead of silicone, would give cleaner look . Not saying yours looks bad you did good job .
ok I think this video settled it for me. Im gonna order one for my '16 Limited. These look really great. Looks sturdy enough to strap the kids up there when they are fighting too. :)
Jon, how close doe the wind deflector mount to the roof? Has it worn the roof paint? Is there significant wind noise? I have a gobi stealth that I have not installed due to the fact of the wind deflector actually resting on the roof .
Hey Jon! Looks great. Been on fence on the rack. Pulling the trigger this week (partly thanks to your video). Which leads me to my question if you have the time. I have a Baja ladder that requires 3inches between spoiler and any rack. Would you say that there’s 3inches from that last crossbar to spoiler? Tried to see in video by looks close. Thanks man! Great look
LOVE the low profile look. Question, I have the 5th gen premium package with the moon roof. Sliding the moon roof open wont be a problem however if I where to pop it up the moon roof would it hit the rack? Great videos TRD JON.
Hi Jon. I got the LFD cross rail bundle because of your video. I've been trying to save money to purchase the 7/8 side rails . Then I see you switch to Westcott 😪. Why the switch? Can you give more details? I feel like I just wasted money
Love your videos my man! Question: what's the height of that rack? So, measuring from the roof to the highest point of the rack? (Garage clearance issues LOL) 🙏🏽🙏🏽
I love this roof rack, but a generic roof rack question - why are all the fairings curved like this? I would love to see one that matches the windshield/straight across.
hey Jon! congrats on the sequioa, looks awesome and looking forward to the vids. liking WD vs. Sherpa right now. how did you decide between the wescot designs modular rack and the lo-pro? eventually would like a roof top tent so wonder which I should go for.
That looks awesome. I have been waiting for this video for a long time! Thanks for posting and also commenting on the assembly. How is he wind noise (If any).
Great job on the video Jon! Thanks for making it. you should order some Voodoo Blue powder-coated allen screws for your rack! just that touch of body paint standing out against the black powder coat? Yum! I body-matched the screws that went into my storage/sleeping platform in the back of my 4runner, and even though no one will ever see it, it makes me smile that my platform matches the truck in which it resides.
I'm going to start begging him to make me a couple of the billet ones he did on the Sequoia in a high polish. Probably super expensive but man that would be cool.
oh damn, legit jealous! that rack looks fantastic. i'd love to eventually do one on mine but i do have a sunroof so wonder how a full rack might impact that?
@@TheBassallyear100 No problem, you won't regret buying it. My opinion best looking rack and the quality and fit is perfect. The only possible knock is not a lot of rack accessories are built for it. Not sure if it would be compatible with other rack accessories
Hi Jon! I cant believe you dropped this video. I've trying to figure out if the skyrise rooftop tent would work on this rack? I'm ordering the rack from WD tomorrow!
Hey Jon, What do you think about how the mount attaches to the roof? Seems like a block would be much better? How much do these racks hold? Great Video, just question the mounting method.
have any experience mounting a Yakima attachments to the low pro Westcott rack? I have a SUP DAWG rack that "clamps" on the 4Runner factory cross bars, curious if there is room to attach it to this rack?
Loved your review on the cali raised stealth bumper and ended up getting one myself. Just curious if you compared or looked into the cali raised led roof rack and why you chose the Westcott instead? They look really similar.
@@TRDJon Nice man, I just went ahead and snagged the cali raised roof rack with premium light-bar as well. Bumper looks great so nothing to lose. I'll let you know how I like it. Greetings from Fort Lauderdale btw
Hi Jon, what is the height of the opening of your garage? Is it about 82 inches? Thanks! Hoping to do the same type of build....and still be able to get it into my garage 👍🌵
My question with this roof rack is what can you use it for since it doesn't have sides that come up do you have to strap everything down for it since there isn't a netting that goes over it to hold it down?
I must admit it looks amazing, BUT, I'm so cheap I can't justify that kind of money for my purposes. As a matter of fact, I'm in the process of installing one that looks similar to that but sits on the factory roof cross bars and is shorter by about a foot. I'll live with it because it cost about one fifth of the cost. Did I say I'm cheap?
I don’t. It should still work with the slots. Call their customer service. Let them know you saw my video but have a few questions. I’d let them know your tent weight and more
Ladder video is live: ua-cam.com/video/K0oThwuJVNs/v-deo.html

Great way to go about your mods!

I wondering the same plus I want to mount a Roam awning to it but afraid it may be too low for the awning to clear the top of the door.
Love it brother!! I have the same one just with the cut out and put the 40 inch Rigid light bar. Their products are the best!!
100%!! That’s awesome to hear!

It depends on where you put the cross bars.
I have this rack and have full use of sunroof

Looks awesome. WD roof rack arrived last week. I'm a big torque spec guy. Did you torque the feet's to a #?
Does it work with a moon roof?
Hi Jon! I cant believe you dropped this video. I've trying to figure out if the skyrise rooftop tent would work on this rack? I'm ordering the rack from WD tomorrow!
This rack has the same modular cross bars as a lot of other on the market so I don’t see why it wouldn’t work.
@@TRDJon Awesome! I'm new. Thank you. Happy Thanksgiving!.
You as well!!! Enjoy!
Hope they make a low pro rack for double cab tundra one day
Hey Jon, What do you think about how the mount attaches to the roof? Seems like a block would be much better? How much do these racks hold? Great Video, just question the mounting method.
For sure! A block is nice but I like this route too cuz it allows it to like up easily too
Hi Jon, do these work with sunroof models?
Love the looks of the rack. What's the load limit?
Not sure. But it will allow RTT’s for ease and it’s strong aluminum construction too
I just installed their regular modular rack and floor inserts. Wanted the low profile, but can’t use the floor inserts
Yea the floor inserts of the modular are amazing.
Personally I like the Stock TRD Pro rack
Mine came with just rails in 2018. But the basket its cool for sure. Idk if it would fit in my garage with the lift
Nice! Looks a lot like a Prinsu and Victory 4x4 rack also. Love the Victory 4x4 rack!
Alot of CNC racks have a similarity to them
Can you still tilt and open sun roof?
How much extra wind noise did you get from the rack at 70+mph?
John can you tell me how high the rack is on top of the front corner door? Thanks!
Hey Jon the roof rack is so low profile is there enough room for a roof top tent to fit?
Might not be a bad idea to wrap the roof after you clean it, then install the rack and not have to worry about cleaning the roof later.
Yea for sure an option for those that don’t frequently clean their roof
What roof top tent were you able to use? Isn’t too tight to put the rtt?
I had a tent by inspired overland.
Lower profile than prinsu?
You lost me at silicone. That’s why I decided on the Sherpa roof rack.
What is that?
Your going to have to put silicone on any roof rack ?! Why would you not
@@rebeltakeSherpa includes rubber peices to fill those gaps. When you tighten it down, the rubber peices seal it up.
have any experience mounting a Yakima attachments to the low pro Westcott rack? I have a SUP DAWG rack that "clamps" on the 4Runner factory cross bars, curious if there is room to attach it to this rack?
I haven’t yet no
Hey I'm looking to get one us there any discount code for it?
Loved your review on the cali raised stealth bumper and ended up getting one myself. Just curious if you compared or looked into the cali raised led roof rack and why you chose the Westcott instead? They look really similar.
I'll be doing that one on a future project of mine in the next month or so
@@TRDJon Nice man, I just went ahead and snagged the cali raised roof rack with premium light-bar as well. Bumper looks great so nothing to lose. I'll let you know how I like it. Greetings from Fort Lauderdale btw
Would this rack be good for carrying large ladders?
Yes I don't see why not
What made you decide to go away from lfd to the westcott? Thanks! Love the videos by the way
Just wanted to showcase another option 👍🏼
Ur 4Runner is looking good. Get some Volk wheels.
Loving the TRD Oem wheels!
@@TRDJon Can’t go wrong with the pro wheels
For sure. Now that a lot of peeps are runnin other wheels too
Love the rack but my OCD would be in high gear not being able to clean the roof of my 4Runner.
Hi Jon, what is the height of the opening of your garage? Is it about 82 inches? Thanks! Hoping to do the same type of build....and still be able to get it into my garage 👍🌵
Yes it’s about 7’
@@TRDJon Did you ever put a Roof top tent on top of your blue TRD PRO and get it in the garage??
Yes I currently have one on it.
My question with this roof rack is what can you use it for since it doesn't have sides that come up do you have to strap everything down for it since there isn't a netting that goes over it to hold it down?
There is pleanty of anchor points on this rack for hooks
Sherpa Crestone has more equipment and add-on options.
Nice option then for ya!

Did you end up mounting the tent. Trying to see if it works well with tents being so low profile
I did not. No
@@TRDJon
Do you see any reason it would be a problem. I was planning on ordering the rack tomorrow but do t want to toe my hands behind my back.
I don’t. It should still work with the slots. Call their customer service. Let them know you saw my video but have a few questions. I’d let them know your tent weight and more
Is there any flex with the concern of crossbars hitting/scraping the roof.
There is a decent amount of room still as I showed in the video, but these cross bars are pretty sturdy with little flex
For a standard 4Runner with factory side rails , will I need to drill ?
No. The 4Runner has factory bolt holes that good quality rock sliders will utilize.
Looks like a prinsu roof rack tbh. Btw I have the ladder and love it.
Can’t wait to install it.
The cross bars are a lot more sturdy compared to prinsu I’ve seen in the past.
@@TRDJon how was the install for the lift?
Very nice. Yotamafia performed the install. I have the video linked in the iCard.
I love it
Thanks!!
@trdjon do they make one for 4runners with moonroof?
You can move your cross bars around if needed
Does anyone knows if you can attach a roof tent on that rack? I am asking because it seems so close from the roof itself.
Yes
How is the Aerodynamic effects on these ??
Barely noticeable
How much did you lift your 4 runner ?
About 3.5 ish with the tires too
Thanks ..looking into a 3inch lift
Why did you switch to that roof rack? The LFD roof rack not good?
Just to try something different
@@TRDJon but which rack is better over-all in your opinion?
What is the difference with the modular roof rack?
Bit taller than this one
@@TRDJonThank you 🙏🏼
Whoo, first!
Heck yes!!!!
Not sure I like the wind ferring touching the paint. Pretty sure once grit gets in there you will lose your paint.
Any wind noise?
Not that I can tell. The ladder causes some noise
How much do you save, doing it yourself
Depends on the shop you go to and their rate. I'd say $150-300?
@@TRDJon that's a good change .. thanks.
For sure is
Cheeee, second! 🤙🏾
Appreciate you!!!
@@TRDJon Big fan, love your videos and vehicle line up!!! Aloha from Hawaii
Thank you so much man!
Make sure there's NO daylight between the front fairing and roof or it will vibrate your teeth out.
It hasn’t but I’ll keep and eye out.
@@TRDJon I have a similar one and ran into that issue. Just pushed the trim down a bit and it fixed it. Looks great.
All bolt are exposed snow, rain gona rust it yea its a no for me
Hasn’t yet. They use proper hardware.
