Roof Rack for 3rd Gen 4Runner

[rathvona]

Does anyone know of any full length roof racks for the 3rd gen 4Runner? I really like the Ranger rack by Gobi racks but the price is pretty wild. I'm looking for around $1k or lower, but I'm willing to have some wiggle room with that price.

Pics are appreciated.

Thanks guys,
Austin

Good luck finding one less that $1K for a full length. Other than the Baja rack (I wish they made the 'utility rack' for the 3rd gen)

Here's what I've found:
Equipt

Gobi

Baja Probably the cheaper options

I think this guy is making one for the 3rd gen as well. it's a 3/4 length

Not a lot of options out there for us

Thanks man, which would you say is of higher quality, the baja or the gobi?

I don't think you'd have a problem with any of them. Just depends on what you're looking for.

I haven't ever heard of any of them breaking. What are you looking to do with it?

I had a full length rack built by Drabbits on TR4.

I love it.
He makes a basket version usually.

By the time you buy the accessories to mount items on a full length Bajarack your at the same price as the Gobi.

I plan on living out of my car for a few months and i need something that will hold up to a lot of punishment because its going to be my home. I plan on carrying a spare (maybe 2) up there, 3-4 jerrys, and whatever else I can't think of right now.
