First Edition Roof Rack / Load Limit
- Thread starter agjake01
- Start date
I wanted to know dimensions to be sure it would clear the garage door opening. I got this from my dealer, but sadly it refers to the manual for weight limits and restrictions. It appears to "integrate with the Land Cruiser's roof rails" so I would guess it does not change the load limit for the factory rails. It just provides additional tie down points.

PS. Where can I find a copy of the vehicle manual?
you think the added roofrack to a middle grade LC is the same? mine has a Port installed roof rack option included in the spec
Sweet! Thank you.

I’m going to pretty annoyed if the FE roof rack can’t support a RTT. The 4R gets an ARB rack with a significant load limit, hopefully the $1500 FE roof rack is more than cross rails with a frame…
I don't know the weight limits. I'm optimistic that the engineers at Toyota know what the off-roading community need in a roof rack.

Reviving this one now that a few folks have the truck - anyone planning to mount a jack, awning, tent, or boards to the rack? What mounting hardware are you going to use or do you recommend?
Can anyone provide an exact vehicle height measurement with the rack? Wondering if it will fit in my garage with anything mounted to it… thanks!

does anyone know the total LC height WITH the roof rack? I see the rack is 6 inches but it integrates with the roof rails so not sure what the total LC height would be. Want to know if it would still fit into my garage.

looks like 77 3/4". I put a board on top to get a good measurement.

You are a gentleman and a scholar!
The TopOak RTT is 8” - so I think I’m going to be 1.5” too tall for the garage frame to pull in with it one.

Think I’m going to have to look for a lower profile RTT or come up with something innovative like this guy -
Thanks for measuring!
That loading system is pretty genius.

Howbout this one for loading on the driveway. Breaks down for easy storage and under $100 in parts.

Then a regular frame on casters to hoist the tent for storage back in the garage.

Yeah pretty sure that’s dynamic, I’ve seen a review of a RTT with two grown men in it re static load so I’m sure we’re good.

I was hoping to mount some Maxtraxs' to the FE roof rack but the mounting pins are too tall for the style of cross bar that it uses. I didn't feel like drilling it – so far I'm thinking the Prinsu Maxtrax Universal Mount might do the trick.
It’s 165lb dynamic 600lb static
