Low Profile Stainless Steel Side Rails
The new low-profile side rails are constructed from 11-gauge (.120") stainless steel and finished in our durable black powder coat. Stainless steel side rails are now standard on all Tacoma racks; selecting a “Stainless” rack option adds stainless steel crossbars only.
Key features include:
Installation uses factory mounting points and is completely non-invasive.
Improved Aerodynamics & Reduced Noise
The redesigned wind fairing features a steeper angle than previous generations, improving airflow for better efficiency and significantly reduced wind noise. Lights can be bolted to the top of the extrusion
A rubber edge trim with cushioning bulb is included. For added paint protection, we recommend applying 3M paint protection film beneath the bulb where it contacts the roof.
Premium Hardware & Secure Mounting
All racks include:
-
Black oxide-coated Grade 8.8 stainless steel hardware
-
Nord-Lock washers to prevent loosening under vibration
-
Delrin spacers for rain gutter mounting (caulking required), spreading load evenly and preventing galvanic corrosion
These components ensure the rack stays secure even during aggressive off-road use.
