RackWorks?

[SKP-4R]

In my quest for finding a roof rack, I came across a company that sells what appears to be a very solid looking rack. I've seen some of their stuff on SEMA trucks but never on a 4Runner. Has anyone heard of the company Rackworks?

RackWorks - Rubicon Series Standard

I'm not sure if this is more 'show' than 'go' but from what I can see they are made of very high quality materials and are designed in the U.S.A

I believe they are designed for the JK jeeps but I've seen there stuff on everything from Rubicon's to Chevy Tahoe's, to 3500 series dually's.

Any feedback is much appreciated, just wondering if anyone has had any experience with these or know if they might fit our 5th-gens.

Thanks!

They mount on factory rails or how? I suppose brackets could be made

Here are some other options
Gobi
Baja
Front runner
Drabbits
Rola Vortex
K9
Whitson Metalworks
ARB
Yakima loadwarrior
Yakima megawarrior
Yakima basketcase

Thanks. Have been looking at GOBI and BajaRack for quite some time. Not new to the world of racks, just touching all my bases.

The Baja flat rack is awesome, i like how it looks and nice flat platform.

However i choose the Gobi rack since they were offering a free ladder, free accessory (free shipping as usual) and top quality rack that has wires already prerun for wiring up lighting, along with many accessories. I knew with the purchase if later down the road something changed that i would be able to resell it no problem as its a household name to the community.

I agree.

I unfortunately missed out on jicko's gb...but after talking with him he is definitely making me reconsider purchasing one even without the discount. My only real hesitation is that they are so much more expensive than anyone else. I guess when your the best, you can charge whatever you want :shrug:

Just wait for trail duty to have a sale, i paid $1395 shipped to my door that came with free ladder and a free accessory
If you factor in the ladder cost $100 and accessory $160 its only about $1130
also comes prewired if needed

Then take Baja full length rack $999 and shipping $170 your about the same cost ($1170)

Never seen one on a 4runner, but I think I need to research this for my f250 work truck. Looks pretty lightweight - looks like it might be sheet metal just folded in a brake a few times.

I do like how it looks.

hopefully they have a sale soon would love to have a gobi rack with ladder and accessory for 1400 shipped.

I email drabbit but it seems they are busy

this rack looks interesting and like how the lights are integrated into them

It's definitely a cool design but it also looks like a giant whistle.
