GX550 with Land Cruise 1st Edition Roof Rack

[gvan1998]

I bought the last LandCruiser FE roof rack in the states. They are 3 to 5 months back order, approximately 500-600 on back order.

I love the look, lighter than the Lexus OEM roof rack. Most importantly, no NOISE!!!!!!!!

I highly recommend this mod, its a direct plug and play.

Looks good. Is there. Reason you went with this over a 3rd party rack? Westcott? Prinsu? Rhino. Etc.

Its Factory OEM, direct plug and play, 100% perfect fitment. Toyota Quality vs Aftermarket

What are the dimensions of the rack? Love the look but didn't find them in the listing I saw online.

Its a Toyota OEM part PT970-60241

dimensions are similar to the Lexus OEM Roof Basket

So the overtrail oversized roof rails come off to install the LC rack?
Explain the install
Also does it have brand markings like “Toyota “ or “ Land Cruiser”

Thanks

Yes the oversized roof basket come off and the factory side roof rail. This installs onto the factory holes on the roof.

No Toyota or Landcruiser marking. It looks better than Lexus OEM

Is there enough height to use proper tie downs ? I wonder what was the Lexus engineers reasoning for high roof rails and the rack to attach to higher roof rails
Heavier weight limit ?

yes there is enough height.

Weight limit is same as the original roof rails. The weight limit is limited to what the car can handle, usually the roof basket has higher weight limit,

Does the back part of this roof rack cover the shark fin antenna? Does that affect any of the radio functionality?
