ARB 4x4 Is Here! Let’s Talk 6th Gen Builds

[Marie_ARB]

Curious to see what you come out with! It's been a year and not much from ARB yet for the 4runner.

We're working on releasing new products. We'll have more information on product releases on the forum, so make sure to stay tuned!

I won't lie, I'm a bit of an ARB fan girl. I am looking forward to an MT64 kit in a few months and I am totally excited to see the details on that new front bumper.

Love to hear it! Send us some photos once you have the kit installed on your 4Runner. We would love to see it!

For those who have the Trailhunter, what’s your favorite ARB product on it?

I'd have to say the suspension by far!
I love the styling of the roof rack, but am quite disappointed that there aren't any rear window MOLLE panels available.

Lets see some photos of your Trailhunter!

At the moment, we are not developing any sort of rear window MOLLE panels. However, there are plenty of accessories that are compatible with the Base rack. What are you trying to mount?

The suspension…I love the OME. Roof rack is pretty much just added weight.

We're glad you're loving the suspension!

What are your goals for the build? Roof racks can be incredibly useful for storage, and if you're planning on adding an RTT, it's a non-negotiable. Our base racks have plenty of compatible accessories; we'll be doing a post about that soon! Plus, a 4Runner without a rack just doesn't look right, you know!

Thanks for the response!
I purchased a Rotopax gas can and then found out that they need to be manually vented. If I mount it horizontally on the roof rack, I would need to remove the gas can anytime it needs to be vented.
Rear window MOLLE panels are very common on 4runners, I feel this is an oversight by ARB not to have anything in development.

@Marie_ARB will there be a summit bumper for the 6th gen trailhunter?

At the moment, we are working on two front bumpers for the 6G. We'll have more information on them in the coming months!

Love the color!

This is definitely something I could bring up to the team. We love hearing about what our customers want for their builds, and if we can make it happen, it's a win for everyone!

Thanks! There have been quite a few people who have replaced this factory roof rack so they can add the MOLLE panels.
If ARB offered something that would fit the factory rack, I'd purchase it.
Another, less common, reason for adding rear MOLLE panels is for glass protection from car thieves.

Hi there,
I wanted to clarify a few things regarding mounting accessories to your rack. We do offer many Base rack-specific accessories on our website. With that being said, you are also able to use accessories that can be mounted on a t-slot channel. If you need any more clarification or if you're looking for something specific, please let me know, happy to help!

Thanks. I opened a ticket with ARB support because it was unclear which mounts for recovery boards would work with the rack and the support team told me they can't answer it because the rack was designed by Toyota and only made by ARB. Then closed my ticket. For now I've just not used the rack at all. My local ARB reseller said the same and recommended I add the Prinsu. Kind of defeats the point of buying the Trailhunter though.

Thank you @marie! Looking forward to it. I hope your bumper gets rid of the 2nd mustache the 6th gen has!
