Roof Rack - ARB Platform 3/4 Length [Confirmed: same as Trailhunter roof rack]

[dirtwheeler]

Part number: PN PT989-89251
MSRP: $1,680


Update from @Rellims' own 4Runner:

Confirmed, the ARB 3/4 Roof Rack is the same one as on Trailhunter.

Original post:

I've got an Off-Road Premium on reserve that's getting built out with a "Roof Rack- ARB Platform 3/4 Length". I don't see this as an option for the ORP on Toyota's website and I can't find any info on it. Does anyone have a link or any specs on this rack? I plan to buy a rooftop tent after I get my 4Runner. I'm trying to see if I can work with this one or if I'd I'll need to replace it.

I'll probably bug the dealer about this, but thought I might find some info here.

The only time I've seen a reference to a 3/4 Length ARB Roof Rack is in the PPO options list of the TRD Pro:

But haven't seen any photos of it yet. Sounds interesting though and ARB makes some quality stuff.

I have the same question and am really hoping it's the same one as on Trailhunter.

I believe it is the same one as the trail hunter. $1,700 is up there though. I saw a cool low-pro, full roof one from Westcott Designs, which can be ordered with a light bar cut out as well. Not sure how it would affect the sunroof though.

Here's a link to all of their 4Runner mods: https://westcottdesigns.net/2025-4runner-parts-accessories/

I just cared that it was an ORP trim, but I was planning to get a roof rack anyway. If this is the same one as the Pro, I'm guessing it's a good one. I find it kind of strange that Toyota is putting this on an ORP, but doesn't have an option to add it in their build tool (unless I missed it). Thanks for the link.

The ORP I have on reserve doesn't have a sunroof. I kind of prefer this. I had an '03 limited/V8 that had a sunroof I never used. I was always worried it would break or start leaking, but I never had any issues with it. I like the full length rack in your links. If the one I'm getting doesn't work out for a roof top tent, I'll probably be looking at these again.

I noticed in the build list (or whatever it's called), the rack I'm getting is listed at $1,710. Now to learn more about the trailhunter rack (assuming it's the same one)....

My ETA delivery time is between the 13th and the 22nd and I have this same one on the build sheet, so if we can't find anything online confirming, we will know soon enough.

Found this: "the Trailhunter has a large roof rack designed by ARB that can support 700 pounds of static weight" (https://www.motortrend.com/reviews/2025-toyota-4runner-trailhunter-first-drive-review).

And this... "Roof load capacity: 770 lbs. static, 165 lbs. dynamic"... " the new 4Runner offers a 770-pound static roof load capacity, which is perfect for a rooftop tent (RTT). However, the roof’s dynamic capacity is only 165 pounds, which isn’t enough to carry many larger RTTs." (https://gearjunkie.com/motors/2025-toyota-4runner-first-drive-review).

That last link also had a picture of the first thing I plan to do when I get a new 4Runner.

Doesn't look terrible...

I'm curious about the dimensions, which don't seem to be listed anywhere. There are roof top tents lighter than 165 pounds, but I'm not sure if the "3/4" length will be an issue. I'd be waiting until I have the 4Runner before ordering a roof top tent, but it will be good to know ahead of time if it will work. I'll bet I could probably sell the one it comes with if I upgrade to something else, so I'm not too worried in the long run.

My ETA isn't until the end of March ("Vehicle is in build phase... Estimated availability 03/20/25."). I assume that can change. I have no idea how accurate those availability estimates are. I assume "available" means at the dealership and I can come on down, finish the transaction, and drive it back that day. Hopefully it doesn't mean available to put on a boat to the US whenever!

My original date was 3/8, so moved up a few weeks, hope yours does as well.

We haven't talked in a while. He owes me $20 from our last race that he won't admit he lost.
