Sizes:
The K9 systems for the Lexus GX470 and GX460 (Prado 120 & 150) come in 1250mm (49″) width, and 5 different lengths.
Far and away the most popular model is the 2.2M (87″) long rack that starts a few inches behind the windshield and finishes an inch in front of the rear hatch. This rack maximizes your roof top capacity.
The 1.6M (62″) version is a great choice if you want to maintain the use of your sunroof. It starts just behind the sunroof and finishes an inch in front of the rear hatch.
Heights:
The Lexus GX models use our standard height rack measures 5″ high, from above the second row doors, measured at the pinch weld trim. It uses 65mm tall feet, and allows enough room for options on the bottom of the platform.
Capacity:
As with all roof racks, the weight capacity of the K9 roof rack system is broken into two measurements: static weight and dynamic weight.
Static is when the vehicle is stationary, not in motion. Dynamic is when the vehicle is in motion.
After running tests, it was determined that a dynamic capacity in the range of 500 pounds is possible. That load included a Roof Top Tent, awning, dual fuel can holder, aluminum storage case with recovery gear, shovel, axe, under mount table, light bar, etc on a 2.2M long rack.
A static capacity of 1000 pounds is possible. An example of static load increase would be adding people in the tent on the roof. Please understand these capacities are on vehicles that have modified suspensions designed to manage this amount of weight. They are not a warrantied or guaranteed capacity. Your load capacity will vary.
No Drilling Required:
The K9 Roof Rack System for the Lexus GX requires no drilling at all for any size rack. The proprietary mounting rail mounts right over the roof pinch weld trim and utilizes the OEM roof rack mounting points.
Rack Kit Includes:
The components used on the Lexus GX rack systems include a pair of mounting rail, a set of K9 feet (2 per platform cross brace), and a platform.
Rack Accessories:
The Eezi-Awn K9 Roof Rack System comes with a complete array of bolt on accessories. Jerry Can holders, Axe mounts, Shovel mounts, Hi-Lift Mounts, Max Trax Mounts, Awning Mounts, Under Rack Table mounts, and much more.
Thule & Yakima Compatible:

Help lifting the platform on the roof would be appreciated. You start by removing the factory roof rack, then attach the K9 mounting rail to the roof, followed by a full set of feet, and finally a platform on top.
Note: The newer GX460 models with factory rack systems that are flush against the roof, will require the purchase of several pinchweld trim pieces from Toyota.
The Eezi-Awn K9 racks are designed to mount the mounting rail on top of this trim. They are standard on the Toyota Prado version of this vehicle, but not necessary under the factory rack on the Lexus version. The Toyota part number is 75555-60020. You will need a quantity of 4. Some trimming may be necessary.
