Redesigned from Scratch for the 6th Gen 4Runner
LFD's first rack for the 2025+ 4Runner isn't a carry-over — it's a ground-up redesign with one-piece stainless rails sitting an inch lower, CNC-formed crossbars with universal mounting slots, and their quietest wind fairing yet.
Lower, Tougher, Quieter Than Before
The new side rails are one-piece, multi-bend 11-gauge 304 stainless steel — the same grade used in marine hardware. They sit a full inch lower than LFD's previous generation designs while retaining the multi-bend construction that gives them their rigidity. Mounting feet are integrated directly into the rail (not bolted on as separate brackets), and front feet apply upward pressure against the roof for a rattle-free, secure fit.
All crossbar hardware is stainless Grade 8 M8 button-head bolts with black oxide finish. Installation uses existing factory holes — no drilling, no permanent modifications.

Mount Anything — CNC Crossbars with Universal Slots
Every crossbar has a center slot compatible with M8 bolts, T-nuts, or 3/8" bolts — the three most common hardware standards for roof rack accessories. Lights, recovery tracks, water containers, awning arms, and overland gear can be bolted or clamped anywhere along any bar. No adapter plates, no proprietary mounting systems.
The wind fairing is stainless steel with rubber edge trim, mounted on a dedicated aluminum crossbar. LFD recommends a strip of 3M Paint Protection Film under the edge trim to protect the hood paint.

⚙️ Configuration Guide — Which Option Is Right for You?
| 6 Crossbar Kit |
5 standard crossbars + 1 wind fairing crossbar. Best for a large rooftop tent that covers most of the rack. Cleaner look, lighter weight. Available in carbon steel or stainless crossbars. |
| 10 Crossbar Kit |
9 standard crossbars + 1 wind fairing crossbar. Maximum mounting positions for lights, gear bags, recovery tracks, awnings, and mixed loads. Available in carbon steel or stainless crossbars. |
Side rails are 11-gauge 304 stainless steel in all configurations. Crossbar material (carbon steel vs stainless) is the only difference between tiers within each crossbar count. Accessories not included.
Lead time: Approximately 4 weeks.
FAQ
|
Does this fit the 2025+ 6th Gen 4Runner? Yes — this rack was purpose-designed for the 6th Gen 4Runner (2025+). It is not a carry-over from the 5th Gen design.
|
6 crossbar or 10 crossbar — which should I choose? If you're running a large rooftop tent that spans most of the rack, 6 bars is plenty and keeps the rack lighter. If you want maximum mounting positions for lights, gear, awnings, and mixed loads, go with 10.
|
|
Carbon steel vs stainless crossbars — what's the difference? Both are CNC-cut, bent, welded, and powder-coated. Stainless (304) crossbars offer better long-term corrosion resistance — ideal if you're in a wet climate or near salt air. Carbon steel is the more cost-effective option. The side rails are 11-gauge 304 stainless in all configurations.
|
Does installation require drilling? No — 100% bolt-on, mounts to existing factory holes. No drilling, no permanent modifications. Fully reversible.
|
|
What accessories can I mount to the crossbars? The center slot on each crossbar accepts M8 bolts, T-nuts, and 3/8" bolts — the most common standards for lights, recovery tracks, MaxTrax, awning arms, and overland accessories. Gear can also be clamped directly around the bars.
|
What's the wind fairing made of? Stainless steel with rubber edge trim, mounted on a dedicated aluminum crossbar. LFD recommends applying 3M Paint Protection Film under the edge trim for hood paint protection.
