Low Profile Full Roof Rack System
Eight years after our original Full Roof Racks went out the door — now with millions of miles on and off road — we're launching the largest redesign yet of our full rack lineup: the Low Profile Full Roof Rack System.
Same legendary strength and modularity LFD Off Road is known for, with much better fitment, aerodynamics, and noise reduction.
Heavy-Duty Crossbars & Modular Configurations
Still our proven steel or stainless-steel crossbars — strong, easy to mount accessories to. All hardware is now black oxide-coated Grade 8.8 stainless steel M8 button-head bolts with Nord-Lock vibration-resistant washers for maximum security on and off the trail.
- Five crossbars plus the wind fairing crossbar (six total) included standard
- Optional nine crossbars plus the wind fairing crossbar (ten total)
- The six-crossbar setup is ideal for vehicles with sunroofs or large rooftop tents that cover most of the rack. Ten crossbars maximize accessory mounting. No difference in weight capacity between configurations.
- Optional aluminum extrusion crossbar variant — ten-crossbar configuration only. Shown on the Orange 4Runner and Apex Overland Rebelle Rally 4Runner in the photos.
- Photos show optional accessories (Grab Handles, Hi-Lift Mount, Traction Board Mount) — sold separately.
On sunroof-equipped vehicles, crossbars can be omitted over the sunroof without affecting structural integrity. If installed over the sunroof, full sunroof functionality is retained.
Low Profile Stainless Steel Side Rails
The new low-profile side rails are 11-gauge (.120") stainless steel, finished in our durable black powder coat. Stainless side rails are now standard on all full 5th Gen 4Runner racks; the "Stainless" rack option adds stainless steel crossbars on top of that.
Key features:
- Two full-length stiffening bends for rigidity and strength
- One-piece side rail design for durability
- Bolt-on front feet only
- No drilling or permanent modifications
Installation uses factory mounting points and is completely non-invasive.
Improved Aerodynamics & Reduced Noise
The redesigned wind fairing has a steeper angle than previous generations — better airflow and noticeably less wind noise. Lights can bolt to the top of the extrusion.
A rubber edge trim with a cushioning bulb is included. For paint protection, apply 3M paint protection film under the bulb where it contacts the roof.
Premium Hardware & Secure Mounting
Every rack includes:
- Black oxide-coated Grade 8.8 stainless steel hardware
- Nord-Lock washers to prevent loosening under vibration
- Delrin spacers for rain gutter mounting (caulking required), spreading the load and preventing galvanic corrosion
Stays secure even under aggressive off-road use.
Installation & Compatibility Notes
- No drilling required
- Uses factory roof mounting points
- Not compatible with standard LFD Ruggedized Crossbars
- Compatible with Full Rack Crossbars only — available here
- 4" Wide Full Rack Crossbars available as an add-on — good for mounting RotoPax and other wide-base accessories
Load Rating
Toyota specifies a maximum dynamic roof load of 300 lbs. Always account for vehicle specifications, driving conditions, and load distribution.
