How much weight will this hold? Rooftop tent work on it?

Lexus rates the GX roof with a factory rack at "Max load 165 lbs evenly distributed." Our rack itself can handle significantly more weight than that, and we've had 250 lbs dynamic weight on it without issue, static capacity is certainly well above that. All these weight will be at your discretion as they are above Toyota "recommended" capacities. If you need more information please contact us directly at [email protected]

Is this rack compatible with roof boxes, specifically the skybox by yakima.

We have had customers mount roof boxes to these racks, but you would need to come up with a mounting solution.

What be your recommended mounting solution for putting maxxtrax on the side of your rack?
A

Sorry we don't have a solution for that.
Q
Rob • 04/30/2021, 8:30:08 PM
Rooftop tent is 60x90. Too wide given the rack width (47)?
A
05/05/2021, 1:00:12 PM
It would stick out 6 or so inches a side and you'd need to be sure it was spaced up enough to clear the side rails and such.
Q

Are there ant special attachments I need to mount a Thule cargo box to this rack?
A

Thule's universal mounts may work, we haven't tested here at the shop specifically.

I chose to purchase the Victory rack for my 2017 GX460 based on two factors: online reviews and the way the rack sits on the vehicle. In my opinion, this is the best-looking roof rack on the market.
I installed the rack myself in about two hours. I have worked with extruded aluminum before, so there might be a bit of a learning curve if you have never threaded steel bolts into aluminum before. It is not difficult, but there is a certain feel and touch that can help you avoid stripping the threads.
I have hauled a sheet of plywood, kayaks, bicycles, and a stand-up paddle-board on the rack. So far, so good!
My one other piece of advice is to try to plan your use cases for the rack well before you need to load it up. Mounting things to any aluminum extrusion takes a bit of forethought and planning. I do not see this as a knock against Victory, because any style of rack that uses similar extrusions will have similar challenges. I have purchased several extra bolt sets and other mounting hardware, both from Victory and third-party suppliers, to round out my kit and have the flexibility to secure many different loads.
Note From Victory 4x4: Thanks for the review and advice, Jeremy!

Fast shipping, easy to assemble, packaged wonderfully, very light, and of course looks super clean! Had to tinker with the front fairing a bit to get the wind noise down to a minimum. FYI for people with gx470 that I learned that wasn’t mentioned in the video. The weather stripping between the rear and middle rack to body mounts need to be cut a few inches, the middle mount will not lay flush on the bolt holes until you cut the strip. Secondly they recommend putting the weather stripping provided in the kit on the pointed corners of the back of the rack. On the gx470 those corners don’t touch the car but the middle of the rack does. So instead of cutting the remaining strip in half and putting them on those corners, I just centered the strip in the middle of the rack on the back side. Otherwise I followed all other directions and everything went smoothly
Note From Victory 4x4: Thanks for the review and tips, Danielle!

Its hard for me to be impressed this day in age and very few things exceed my expectations; however, this roof rack from Victory 4x4 has far exceeded my expectations. I have a 2017 White Lexus GX460. I recently had it lifted 3”, new black rims (Method), and new tires (Nitto Grappler). I needed something to tie it all together, and this rack accomplished my objectives. It looks great! I’ve had multiple compliments on the truck. The rack is extremely sturdy and well built. It took me about 2 hours, start to finish, to install it. The installation video was spot on. It fits the top of the 460 like a glove and looks great. I’m excited for my future off-roading adventures and carrying my canoe. This is an excellent product. Glad I went with this one over the others on the market.
Note From Victory 4x4: Thanks for the review Stephen!

I put this bad boy on about 6 months ago and have utilized non stop during camping season here in Colorado. I Love this thing and would highly recommend it! Easy to assemble, easy to instal, looks awesome and performs beautifully.

Just installed my Victory 4x4 roof rack on my 2015 GX460. Video instructions was spot on. Easy to follow. Perfect fit and finish. The quality of this product is far superior from other manufacturer. Cannot wait to install accessories for the rack. Could not be happier with the ease of installation. We’ll be buying other products from Victory. It’s a WINNER.

After doing tons of research I ended up at Victory 4x4. They are a hidden gem in this big industry, the attention to detail in this rack was amazing and have a feeling they are just getting started. The fitment and how to video was spot on. This was a huge upgrade for the GX, fit like a glove
Note From Victory 4x4: Glad you like it! Thanks for the review!
Jay Alonzo (CA) | January 6th, 2020
Since I didn't have any help to lift the rack once assembled, I laid all the parts on the floor and assembled one by one on the roof of my GX460. I started with the main posts, then the rails, the rest of the parts just bolted right in. no adjustments or modifications needed. It has been 3 months since I installed the rack, no noticeable change in MPG and wind noise. My only regret is not ordering the fairing with the light cutout.
Note From Victory 4x4: Thanks for the order and review!
Jay Alonzo (CA) | December 4th, 2019
First, thank you for the fast shipping. received the rack in a week after I ordered. Installation was a little challenging for me since I did not have any help, so I resorted to assemble the rack directly on to the roof. took longer than normal, but all the parts bolted in perfectly with no slight issue. The youtube video helped out a lot also and was very detailed with the assembly. So far I have loaded some sheets of plywood on top for my diy drawer system.
Note From Victory 4x4: Thanks for the order, glad it's working out well for you!

Assembly: If you can use a screwdriver this should be very easy. The instructions video on YouTube was very thorough and easy to follow. This is a very easy rack to assemble. The only hard part is placing the rack on the vehicle. I used my wife and daughter (we are a tall family) to place it very gently on top of the GX. I did roll up some small towels, just as a precaution, and placed the racks feet upon the towels. That was the hardest part which was not that hard. Take your time and all should go well.
Function: I have had two small Yakima racks on it at once with no problems. I put a piece of plywood on top and used some homemade T-nuts to secure it. My wife and I put chairs on top and watched a concert in the park. I am impressed with the strength and the things you can do with it due to the T-Nut function. I am also very happy that the powder coating is holding up well in the Florida sun.
So far, the rack has held up great and we have used it on some light overland trips and on some long vacation trips to the Florida Keys. There is no extra wind noise noticeable by my ear and the decibel app on my iPhone. It does allow you to use your sunroof a bit more. It seems to get rid of the buffeting that I had without the rack.
It is a great product that if nothing else takes the “Soccer Parents look” out of the Gx 460
Future plans are to order the Victory Awning Mounts and maybe the Accessory Mounts for some Rotopax containers.

The roof rack is a great fit and looks good. It was and easy assembly and install.
I would say overall I like the rack and would recommend it.
I was disappointed that the rack did not come black nuts and bolts instead of having to pay extra for them.
