Just got these bars today. Super easy install and they look amazing. Easily a one man job. Trickiest part was removing the caps on the stock rails to remove the OEM crossbars. The bars are such a huge visual and utility upgrade over stock and significantly less cost than a full rack. Perfect for those of us who don’t use our 4Runners as dedicated overland builds.

Nice video extremely helpful. Thank you. Additional tips, get two ladders. One for each side of the truck, Get two towels, one for each side of the truck. Watch video on pulling end caps of on youtube...be very careful.....don't tighten down the front to much until the others are placed. thread your nuts before install to where you can slide them in snug on install. Drivers side bolts turn towards front of truck. Passenger sides to the back. Pull your towels out before locking down front. If you have front wing fairing piece, put on the protective strip first. ( I actually cut about 2" of mine) Took me a little longer than 41 minutes but pretty simple modification.

@climbgrenadiers88975 жыл бұрын
I just installed yesterday. A couple of notes. If you have the factory cross bars on there already, to take them off you have to remove the roof rack completely. Second, if you get the fairing, it's a little tricky to put on with the cross bars already installed if you put the bolt top down with the nut on the bottom (not much room with the roof in the way of your hands). If you have to take the roof rack off anyway, install the cross bars and fairing first and then put the rack back on. Mine does have that vibration at around 70 mph so first I am going to move the fairing back as far as it will go towards the crossbar and if I still get the vibration I will install the washers. I got the washers at Home Depot. They were in a drawer down low. Neoprene washers 5/16 in black 3 pk (87480 15748). The plan is to put one on each of the 4 bolts if moving the fairing back doesn't stop the vibration (I have my hands crossed it will work). If I need two I'll buy more. That being said, very high quality and functional product, definitely recommended. I got aluminum and steel, aluminum is 2 lbs even and steel is 4.7 lbs.

I rem9ved them to return them and I discovered the fairing has dug into the paint on my 4Runner. I was hoping LFD will help with the pint, but they only offered to send me a touch up paint. Pathetic customer support and crappy design. I can confirm I was not the only one who had this issue as another 4runner forum member also returned the product.

Thanks for this. They look great. Will be looking for wind noise analysis. I was leaning ttoward a front runner rack but at over $1100 I have been hesitating. With the slot system I will be curious if front runner accessories will work. What is the weight limits for dynamic and static loading?

I’d be hesitant to give true weight numbers as they are still on the stock roof rails. However if also seen people put RTT’s on stock rails also. Having 4 of these I feel disperses the load pretty well
@cra2cra2264 жыл бұрын
At 8:57 you say these 4 steel LFD xbars were cheaper than OEM. Huh? On Amazon, 2 OEM bars are $114 (free shipping w/prime), so a set of 4 would be $228 - and, being aluminum, they wouldn't rust and being aerodynamic they're supposedly silent, and if you bought 4 (vs. the standard 2) for extra support, you could probably mount a refrigerator up there, evenly loaded. The LFD "steel" (not aluminum, not stainless steel) bars are $80 each or $320 for 4 (plus $28 shipping). Stock = $230, LFD = $350. And, due to the higher wind noise (than stock) you still likely need a fairing, too (which, at LFD is another $40, so now we're up to $390. Basically close to $225 vs. just shy of $400. Am I missing something?

Another great video! I just sent my stock roof rails in for powder coat because I like this route. Questions: 1. I know you got the steel ones, but I also saw aluminum LFD crossbars...other than alums being more expensive and lighter, was there any other reason you went with steel? 2. If wind noise becomes an issue, do you know if I can just add a wind faring to the frontmost crossbar, or do I need to install the LFD rails to add the wind faring? I could probably just call them but thought u might know. 3. I get my Maxtrax boards today. Do you know if MaxTrax boards are easily mountable using the MaxTrax mounting pins with the LFD crossbeams? Can u mount the boards facing front to back, or is it only right to left? I’d much prefer mounting them vertical to the crossbars to reduce wind noise. I do like how you don’t have to remove the plastic rear end caps to install these crossbars...on the other side, I guess they are easier to steal??

There is a section of their site for just the cross bars

Was everything stocked before you added the LFD cross bars? I am wanting to do this for a roof top tent.

I’m kind of turned off LFD. They have no contact information for people outside of the US. It’s crazy! How are we supposed to contact them? LFD if you’re listening I’m talking to you
