Roof Racks Available for 2025+ 4Runner​

Drafting this up since roof racks are coming out right and left for the new 4Runner so I wanted to put them all in one place. Roof racks add serious utility: space for gear, rooftop tents, lights, and recovery boards. Some sit low and keep wind noise down, others go taller for more clearance and gear mounting, it all depends on how you want your rig to look and preform.

Things to Consider​

  • Rack height and wind noise
  • Mounting style and modularity
  • Strength and load ratings for rooftop tents

Sherpa “The Capitol”​

Final Thoughts​

The new 4Runner already has several solid rack options out, from low-profile daily setups to heavy-duty platforms built for serious overland use. Decide how much gear you’ll carry and how often you’ll use it, then pick the one that fits your style and setup best.
 
Not including the KC Platform One rack is criminal!!
