What types of vehicles are compatible with our roof racks?
expand_more
Our collection of roof racks covers a wide range of vehicles: pickups, SUVs, 4x4s, vans, and even some crossovers. The models are mainly from the VAN44 brand (made in Canada, from stainless steel or sturdy aluminum) and RCI OFF ROAD, with a focus on precise compatibility by generation and model. Toyota: 4Runner (all generations 1990+), Tacoma (all generations 2005+), Tundra, Land Cruiser (LC250 2023+, Prado LC120), RAV4 (2019+), Sequoia (2000-2007), FJ Cruiser (2006-2022).
Chevrolet / GMC: Colorado / Canyon (2015+ and 2023+).
Lexus: GX550 (2023+), GX470 (2003-2009).
Ford: Ranger (2019-2023), Bronco 4-door (2021+ via RCI).
Pro tip: Each rack is custom-designed for a specific vehicle (not universal like some bed racks). Always check the generation and year of your model when ordering—we can confirm with your VIN or photos if needed.
