Gamiviti rack install Lexus GX460

[@TylerPoppe]

For the fairing, do you ever run a rubber strip to connect to the roof?

[@gamiviti4828]

It has certainly been done, yes. The concern is rubbing off your clear coat, so depends on the vehicle if it's worth that for a little bit less wind.

[@TylerPoppe]

@ okay copy that. That makes sense.

[@peterhudlow984]

Tim, when clipping the rubber for the forward tower, do we need to use adhesive on the rubber after in order for it to stay in place? Thanks,

[@gamiviti4828]

yeah sometimes I'll put a little dab of that Dynaflex under the end, just to hold it down. Usually only if it won't stay down on its own

[@sx5707]

Sorry to bother, can you share what kind of bull bar you have? Looks great in the picture of the black GX.

[@WBrown999]

Great video! What is the static weight capacity for a rack like this?

[@gamiviti4828]

Not going to get a number... tents, tires, awnings, water, cases, all pretty common items. Send us an email if you want to discuss your specific use case thanks!

Good video, but the background music is so distracting!

[@sanpham9659]

will the bolts rust?

[@robertv6220]

With the exception of the towers being all the way down, how much of the roof rack weight is resting on the center bolt (1/4-20). I am curious as to why not create 3 sets of 3 holes in the towers that line up with on another, three on each side and the 3 in the middle, since in the end the adjustments has to be made to line up one of the three holes in the middle.

[@gamiviti4828]

almost no weight actually rests on those 1/4-20 bolts. In the end the most I'll use those center bolts is in front, usually when a light bar is added, other times a better gap with the fairing can be achieved by going lower and being halfway between 2 of the holes. The only time I'd use bolts elsewhere is if trying to lift the back of the rack up higher, like to fit a table slide-out, which wouldn't happen on a GX460 anyway as there's an antenna in the way. Are you suggesting 3 large slots all the same size, so 3 of the 3/8-16 bolts? that's actually not a bad idea...

I’m sure it’s listed online but is there a price for this kit?

[@gamiviti4828]

Varies a little depending on options but most complete Expo++ racks are $1100-$1200.. including the one shown in the video here. send an email [e-mail] for a more detailed quote thanks!

@@gamiviti4828 man I wish I had an extra $1200....That’s a real nice looking rack and looks way more sturdy than most around this price range!!

I put this on my 460 and it has been great. Wish I had installed the fairing first as well
