GOBI Roof Rack *Group Buy* Winter 2016 [CLOSED]

* Updated 1/11/2017 *

This groupbuy is now CLOSED.

Thank you all for participating. Setting up and getting thru one of these is NOT easy.

As an agreement with the vendors, we will remove all the posted details of the deal and will not disclose the deal to future potential buyers (some unreasonable people always try to push the vendors to give them "the deal" even when they are way pass the "groupbuy" period, and this really annoys the heck out of vendors).

So, team, please respect that.

Finally, when you get your rack, please post pictures, installation, trips, family outings, getting married on top of your 4Runner etc...... we WANT to see ALL of them!!

Ok guys, let me try to explain these "details" in an illustration.

1) You should determine whether you want the "sun roof opening" or not, if you select to have the "sun roof opening", the RED area will be open. You may want to order the "sun roof insert" (as an free accessory) in order to cover it when you want more rack space. If you select "no sun roof opening", the RED area will be covered with full mesh, you will have no need/use for the "sun roof insert" (so don't order it). This additional mesh is free with this group buy when you order with "no sun roof opening". If you don't have a sun roof on your car, you probably would not want to get the "sun roof opening".

2) If you pick "removable" cross bar, the 2 openings that the BLUE arrow is pointing to will be covered by mesh. If you select "permanent" cross bar (which I believed are stronger), those area will be "opened" like how you see in the picture here.

3) If you pick "40in light bar ready", the 2 vertical bars circled in GREEN will be omitted, so a 40in Rigid E or SR will fit nicely there (some other brands should too)

Gobi_Illustration-vi.jpg~original

(this particular rack is NOT for gen5 4runners, so don't be alerted to see the mesh at the shark-fin location; that mesh will not be there for the gen5 4runners')

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

The craftsmanship on this thing is sweet! It's an easy install, just a little time consuming. Thanks again Jicko! :clap2:

The GOBI!!!
After the wheels and n-fabs got put on, it was time for one of those coveted Gobi Racks! Hopped into [MENTION=119516]jicko[/MENTION] 's group buy, and scored a sweet deal on rack and ladder. Install went relatively smoothly, other than the whole replacing gas struts solo, that was a toughie. Overall, this thing is great! Doesn't flex at all, even with above the static load limit on it.

Would it be possible to get a rack w/o the ladder and have that deducted from the price? I purchased the ladder and was in the process of purchasing a Drabbits rack but I finally got fed up with waiting over 16 months and finally decided to cancel.
 
Well, it looks like I'm going to be hooking for the next few months to pay for this rack...

COUNT ME IN!! I'll post up which package I want when the details for the GB are finalized.
 
Do I need to commit or can I wait until the pricing is finalized?

Is payment now or when shipped?

I'm tentatively in for package one

[2004 Package 1 Stealth w/sunroof opening, sunroof insert]
 
I saw no reference to payment time frame in this GB post unless I missed it. If I did then feel free to point out where it says if you purchase as soon as the price is negotiated or when your order is completed.

Read the GB details, all the details have been laid out.

To the OP, I am more than likely interested just curious about total cost before I commit. Are we able to commit once we know cost?
 
Please sign up IF you are interested, signing up will just ensure your position in the ordering queue.

We will have ordering in batches, so the earlier you sign up, the earlier you will be able to order, and the earlier your rack will be delivered.

Signing up is NOT committing. Signing up will let me have a "quantity" that I will be able to negotiate the prices upon. We, here at T4R.org, had done this group buy a few times previously, and it had always been a huge success (to the point overwhelmed the manufacturer.....), so, we will have a limit this round.

And we always had the BEST price (that they had ever sold, at that point of time).

So, there you have it..... sign up by PM'ing me your details, I think I may do more "emails" rather than PM this time round.

Don't wait!!
