Sturdy rack for Gen 5 4Runner.....

Looking to put a new rack on my rig, and was wondering if the Baja Racks are strong enough to support walking on top like the Gobi example in the photo attached? Any recs for sturdy racks? TIA.

I have a BajaRack on top of my 4Runner and it is incredibly sturdy. I have walked on it numerous times, had a ton of gear on it, etc. and had no issues. The steel and paint are very strong and durable so far. It has 6 legs that attach it to the roof and it is a solid single piece rack.

Standing on it for photos.

Ok, perfect. Will check them out. Thanks for the quick reply! Nice looking 4Runner.

I have the ARB Alloy rack with mesh floor and love it. It's big, light and easily able to support anything, and will never rust!
Good luck in your search..

You can always build one probably cheaper than buying one. I am using 80/20 material.

See Overland Bounds Roof Rack review on You Tube for a nice walk through of a Gobi Ranger Rack. His is on a TLC FJZ80 but I imagine it's largely the same. He walks on his all the time.

Hmmmmmm.....I've used 80/20 extrusions before, .....do the t-slots stay clean? Not a bad idea. Stuff aint cheap tho.
