One thing I'd HIGHLY recommend is a strip of paint protection film (I use the VViViD clear tape rolls) across the roof where that front fairing with the trim sits - if you don't do this, dirt/sand, etc. can (and will) get under that fairing trim and rub through the clearcoat/paint on the roof.
Great idea!!!
this is the only video video Ive watch where someone takes those damn factory end caps off without denting their roof! nice!
Haha. Thx.
You hit the nail on the head with your comment about time consuming, but simple.
Hi Guys thanks for this install video not a lot of install videos for the Cali Raised Led roof rack but you guys did a great job. Before I installed mine few days ago I watched your video several times. On the later part of your video I saw Travis having a hard time to screw that allen bolt under the extrusion which the mount is connected. I found a solution how to install that small allen wrench bolt that connects the mounts and the extrusion. First, I mounted the four mounts on the extrusions and then placed and mount them on top of the 4R. And from there I started building the roof rack. I wished I have another person helped me but I finished it under 2.5hours. Looking forward to your future videos! Cheers!
I’m so glad you liked the video. Yea those screws were not easy. Glad you found a great work around. Thanks again.
The only reason I watched the video was to see how the wiring was done. 😆 Good video!
Thank you!!!
thank guys great video. now on to the wiring at least how you ran it.
Nice video 1st off, & the front led wind cover plate has given me ideas about when I make my roof rack out of 8020's extruded t-slotted aluminum!
In PA, it is also not ok to have front facing roof lights uncovered! Also in PA, it's not ok for any lights that are over a certain wattage not to be covered!
Wish they had that rack for a JEEP!!! That’s awesome!!!
Thank you so much for making this video. Really helped me out!
So awesome and glad to help!!!
great video, I wish you would have done a video for the wiring...that is the hardest part
Yea it is so different for every application. With Trevor having the SPOD it’s really easy.
Great helpful video, Got my roof rack, looking forward to installing it on my 4 runner this weekend.
Agghhh just installed my white Knuckle sliders (thanks for the install vid btw) Now i need this lol
Very nice. How do you like the sliders. And you definitely need this rack.
I found out Those aluminum cross bars hold a lot of water. I pulled each screw out and anti-zed them. I also use a leaf blower to blow the water out of the rails after a wash. Good Video. Keep it up! Take care.
I’m pretty sure all the hardware is stainless by it’s a great idea.
@@AdventureBuilthow are the screws holding up? This is what i hate about my Prinsu. Were they stainless? Have you found anything rusting?
Did you guys ever get around to making a video on how to wire that light bar? I have the same one, but can’t find any installation videos out there.
No sorry, it was a while ago. I know we wired it into Trevor’s SPOd.
Great video guys, keep them coming!
Thank you very much and will do😎😎😎😎😎
Any thoughts on this rack a year later? Any issues with roof rub at the very front? Has it remained a solid rack solution for you, nothing loosening up or breaking (such as the adjustable fairing)? I'm torn between this one and the Westcott Designs. Similar price points but both have some pros and cons, any thoughts would be appreciated and helpful.
Hey guys, Great video. I am getting ready to install mine shortly. Have you decided to do any wiring videos for the PODS and light bar?
Thank you so much. Unfortunately we didn’t focus on the wiring because it is so specific to your rig and your power management. Trevor has a SPOD so it was super easy.
Do you guys have any suggestions on lighting install? It didn’t come with a wiring harness for the pod lights and no instructions either. Any suggestions you have on wiring it up would be appreciated. 2023 4Runner btw, thanks
extruded aluminum? i am thinking it is only 8020 they are using... you can buy that for way cheaper than what they are selling it for.
Would be nice if there was 2 holes for the back for backup lights or camping
That would be super cool, but I think they only offer that option for Tacomas. It would be nice if they offered a rear fairing with cutouts for some rear fogs, backups or chase lights.
That adjustable led wind deflector is nice. I wonder if it feels like it would get flimsy after a few years. Also that's a 5th gen not 4th. Might help with youtube search.
Damnit. Great catch. Only time will tell with the wind.
looks good lets us know how the LED bars weather
Will do!!!
Very nice! I agree with Kelly, not momma 4Runner any more. :)
Hahaha no it sure it not!!!!
Is there a video on the wiring?
Can't wait to see those new bumpers installed! Are you going to powder coat that rear bumper?
Yup just got it back from powder coat and about to install!!!!
@@AdventureBuilt have fun with the install!!! I love doing all the work to my 4runner!
Are you able to do a light bar comparison between the CaliRaisedLED light bar vs Diode Dynamics and Baja Designs. I’ve been so torn between those 3.
Best light bar is going to be Diode Dynamics. The Baja light bar might be a pinch brighter and a pinch cleaner but for the price you can’t beat the Diode Dynamics. Trevor had the Cali Raised LED bar and my Diode is way nicer. Hope this helps.
@@AdventureBuilt yes, that definitely helps tremendously. The CaliRaisedLED light bar was what I decided I was going to get based on the lumens and price. But DD is really what I want.
What path did you take for the wiring of the lights? Did you go out the back and then down into the rear of the 4Runner? Thanks!
Trevor ran the wires down the windshield channel with the KC Hilite windshield channel cover and put it into the engine bay.
I have a sun roof on my 2022 4runner, can you still open the sun roof when I have this roof rack installed ?
Yes your sunroof actually retracts between the roof and headliner. At least that is what my Tacoma sunroof does.
Is there an awning that won’t cover the side lights?
You would have to make a custom bracket to raise it up I’m sure.
Cool set up!!
Thank you very much!!!
Maybe a dumb question. With the light bar mounted further back to allow for the adjustable wind deflector, does that restrict the beam pattern from the light bar? Seems like it would because most lights bars are at the edge of the windshield. Get what I mean?
The light bar light beam throws so far that the rack doesn’t make a difference. Luckily because the cover plate is so cool.
@@AdventureBuilt sweet thanks! I’ve been looking into this rack or Prinsu
Awesome video. Do you have to drill into your 4runner to install rack? I'm considering getting this
Thank you very much. No drilling into the truck needed. It mounts into the factory holes that are in all 4Runners.
Looking at getting this exact setup. Just wondering how much the lightbar casts light on the windshield and hood? Do you find it distracting?
Trevor had no issues with light on the windshield. It’s pretty great. No distraction at all.
Is there a way to tie things through the side of the rack? I don't see any big open cut-outs. (Excluding 4 LED pod light cut-outs)
There aren’t any big cut outs but their are screws that you can put bolts into.
Do you find that the bottom lip of the rack interferes with the illumination of the light bar?
No not at all. The beam throws way past the rack.
@35:29 😂 However I have met some of the hottest soccer moms driving a 4Runner while at a stoplight in my 4Runner. 😉
Nice setup! Where did you get the fender flare? Looks cool
Thank you. They are the RDJ fenders. We did an install video with all the details on the UA-cam channel! Check it out.
@@AdventureBuilt thanks will do!
Hi guys, great video, always fun to watch. I wanted to ask if this rack also allows rear pods to be placed? Also if I choose different pods than the ones in the kit, what size should I be looking for 3 inch or maybe 4 inch? thanks
Thank you very much. You can definitely add pods to the rear but I’m not sure what other pods you could use there. I’m sure 3” would fit but the brackets to make them fit in the cutout might be complex.
You can definitely add an awning to the Cali Raised Roof Rack. It mounts to the cross bars. Very secure.
Hmmmm ….. is that a front and rear bumper i see in the background?!? ATH?
It sure is. Just waiting for some lights to do the installs. C4 Fab front and ATH Fab rear with tire carrier. Hopefully get the rear installed tomorrow.
Hey guys, how are the wind noise while driving on highway?
If you have the wind screen up it’s great. If you leave it down it’s a bit noisy.
Great video
Thank you very much!!!
my lightbar's cable came on one the other side does anyone know if i can take it off and out it on the other side? AS in the cable that plugs into my light bar is on the passenger side not drivers side
If i install ladder at the back will it hit the roof rack?
No there is enough clearance.
Just one question about wiring? It doesnt requiredrilling does it?
Bummer. Ibwanted to see how the wiring was done. Are the front and side lights different circuits?
The front light bar is wired up to one switch and the utility lights are wired up to a different switch.
So where did you run the wiring to the inside of the rig
After watching your rock lightning video I see why you didn't show the wiring
Haha definitely a talent.
Where did you get the black bumper over your tires? alink?
How did you hook up wires into the vehicle?
The power and negative hooked into the sPOD. It’s very vehicle dependent.
Is the light bar upside down? Does that matter?
No the light bar is right side up and yes it makes a difference. The hinge is made to articulate in a certain direction. A little bit up and more down to allow you to align the bar to your desired lighting position.
@@AdventureBuilt im trying to figure out how to mount mine. I have the same one but different brackets that came with it and I have the westcott rack
Any thoughts on using the factory rubber mats with the new rack for a better seal?
what do you mean by that
After 10 months are you still happy with the Cali Raised LED Bar?
Trevor loves it. Works awesome.
Thanks!
do the electric install!
Does a ladder work with this rack?
Yes but I don’t know what model. Trevor and I are doing his ladder install next weekend and I’m sure the video won’t be far behind. Keep an eye out.
I spy a new rear bumper..
Yes it is!!! New At The Helm Fabrication high clearance rear bumper and tire carrier. Gonna be awesome.
Wish you showed electric
Every electric is different. Wiring into the sPOD is so easy it’s not worth putting on the video. We have other videos of wiring into the sPOD if you want to see it. Installing Trevor’s ditch lights have the wiring.
Just wanted to see how the wire gets into the truck before I purchased
I found it. Runs down windshield gutter if anyone else wondering
How do you create a installation video - make a ton of mistakes and not edit that out.
Following your video step by step installing it the same way just to find out “oh this is the wrong bracket”
“Oh this-is upside down”
Lets tear it apart AGAIN.
Terrible video
Sorry!
