    Pretty sure you already went from the later post, but M8 or 3/8 work well.

    Can you try to loosen the bolts on that crossbar and move it higher a little? There should be enough play in the bolt slots to get a little more clearance. 3M protective film strips on amazon, just need to cut it to length.

    KeydeT4R I'm sorry for the late reply and your disappointment, we have not been checking T4R as often as we have in the past. Pretty much most roof racks I'm familiar with include some sort of similar strip for these purposes, and they can over time leave marks on the roof. My 4Runner had a Gobi...

    That does usually work! The aero pads for crossbars can also work, but your solution is a bit less expensive :)

    Fal-man yes, the wide skid does cover the front control arm bolts more from a direct hit. Typically with suspensions we've run on our own vehicles, sway bar relocations come with spacers that also drop the radiator support brackets. When those radiator support brackets that the skid bolts to...

    curmudge1 sorry for the delay, I don't check T4R as often as I used to. Backorders for crossbars are usually at most four weeks. We only mark something as in stock if we actually have it on the shelf. There is a wind fairing option for those crossbars. We recommend it for most applications...

    We're not spending a ton of time on here right now. We are trying to answer all emails/messages, but we get a lot and prioritize answering current order and tech support related messages first, so if it wasn't one of those categories we may have skipped it and not gotten back to it.

    I just put the latest prototype on my 4R Tuesday. It fit better, but still needs a little bit of tweaking.

    Shipped direct, so will just depend on when exactly we get the batch back and how far away you're located.

    The mounting ear got bent during shipping, that happens sometimes. You should be able to bend it back straight. If not then we can swap it out.

    If its standard 5th Gen 4Runner crossbars, we're currently working on orders from around the week of April 12-16th, and should be getting a big batch in hopefully early next week from the powder coater that should take us through the next week or so of orders, which sounds like where yours would be.

    All depends on what you want to use the rack for. You don't need to add any for structural purposes, we've run racks with only two crossbars before. The wides give a bit more flexibility in use, and you can also bolt a rotopax mount directly to it. Installing the rails is pretty...

    Yes, the crossbars have to be adjustable. We simply don't sell enough of them to really justify keeping them in production and continuing to take up shelf space sadly, despite how much I love the early Trail. If there's enough interest we can do another run.
