I looked into the C4 and read reviews from other members that it has rubbing issues when you open it. C4 is also one of the more expensive ladders so it is shocking to read that members have issues with this ladder.
C4 Ladder fitment off, gouged out area behind tabs
So far I have narrowed it down to the obvious Gobbi or Baja and even the Greenlane offroad ladder.

The victory ladder does look very clean but after looking through some install instructions I think you have to drill into the hatch. Im not a fan of that.
Thanks for the suggestion though.

We have the Green Lane OR ladder for over a year now on our rig with the LFD Off Road Dual Swing Rear Bumper. We love the combination, and haven't had any problems!

I saw your post about your greenlane ladder. You had it for almost a year now right? Do you have more pictures? And you mentioned that your hatch does open but slowly. Habe you gotten new struts yet? Does it anglento the side or does it come straight down like Gobi ladder? So far it does look good.
I like gobi bc it is the cheapest so far but has long wait time (8-12wks), which is what everyone is saying. So i shouldnt be too surprised.

Most of my recent pics you can't see it too well because of the swing arms on the rear bumper. I'll see if I can't snap a shot later today. It does angle in slightly to follow the lines of the rear window, but you don't notice it when you are climbing up and down. The ladder is one of those add-on features we use constantly. It is actually to the point that I can't imagine having any SUV without it.
Nope - I am still on the original hatch struts. The hatch does open slowly still, but I actually have learned to live with it. It still opens all the way, and a little push will make it go quickly.
Having seen the Baja, Gobi, C4, and Green Lane ladders all in-person; I definitely feel like the Green Lane ladder is the best pick. It doesn't wiggle or shift. There is no drilling needed. The welds look fantastic. Most importantly, I've had zero issues with it... ...its just there. I haven't had to mess with it since I installed it.

As I been doing my own research, my brother had went ahead and just ordered the Gobi rack for me. So I will be an owner of a Gobi ladder in 8-12weeks.
I sincerely appreciate everyone's thoughts and input.

Wish I would have thought to ask about a T4R member discount before placing my order. Oh well, next time.

There are lots of great sponsors on here who build really nice stuff, but day-um, LFD really came through for me with exceptional customer service! I serve on the board for a non-profit senior center, and we have been working hard to get shut-in seniors out to socialize safely after months of being secluded. I am working on setting up an outdoor event were they can safely sit and chat, and really needed some strong crossbars to carry lots of materials. LFD was out of the aluminum ruggedized bars, so they sent me stainless bars FedEx so I am ready to work this weekend. BTW, I did not tell them why I was in need of them so quickly- they just took care of business. Great company, great people, outstanding quality products.

[MENTION=218651]bigguy02[/MENTION] A couple weeks ago, I emailed LFD and asked if they had any plans to offer aluminum tranny and transfer case skids and was told as of now they have no plans for either. Only an aluminum front skid available for now, but I would love more aluminum skid offerings from LFD.
The side rails are coming with that integrated wind faring crossbar included for free through the end of this year. So if you order side rails through Dec 31st it'll get included automatically.
We haven't released any additional sales, yet...Aiming for the next one later today hopefully if we get everything set up on the website.
Hi lfd, i ordered 2 al crossbars and faring Sat. night and was interested in the integrated wind faring crossbar and couldnt find it on your page. Is this item available for t4r members? If so, can i pay the difference to get the item i want? Thank you for your time and consideration.
You may get a faster/better response through their traditional means of contact (email, etc)
