Prinsu Roof Rack Tacoma 2nd & 3rd Gen – 2005-2023 Prinsu

Prinsu Roof Rack Tacoma Double Cab 2005 – 2023 – Cab Rack Fits 2nd & 3rd Gen Toyota Tacoma

A cab rack that will entirely improve the functionality of your Tacoma. The Prinsu Roof Rack Tacoma is our best-selling rack at Off Road Tents. Why? 

First of all it’s made in America, directly in Idaho. Second, installing it is quite simple as it doesn’t require any drilling and bolts to the existing Tacoma roof factory mounting points. Third, it’s a fully adjustable and modular rack, with crossbars (or slats) that can be removed or added depending on your likes and needs. Last but not least, it has a 1,000 lbs weight capacity. 

This Prinsu Tacoma cab rack fits any Toyota Tacoma 2^nd and 3^rd Gen (2005 to 2023) in the double cab configuration.

The rack itself is made of 2 laser aluminum side rails with a 3/16” thick 5052 aluminum plate, more than enough for a solid off road performance. The thickness of the plate can handle the weight of heavy cargo even with the vibration caused by off road trails. Built tough. Each rail has 3 mounting tabs that allow you to easily bolt the rack into the 5 factory mounting holes on each side of the roof of your Tacoma, ensuring a quick and drill free installation.

When it comes to the slats or crossbars, each one is made of a 2” x 1” aluminum extrusion with a two t-slot channels at the top and bottom of the slat, and one more t-slot channel on the other two sides. This allows you to have a wide range of tie-down solutions for a safer transportation of any type of gear, cargo or accessories. The rack also includes a 1/8” 5052 aluminum plate wind deflector.

The whole roof rack comes powder coated in black, and all the hardware (bolts, screws, etc) comes in a black zinc finish to match the look of rack. A sleek and edgy off-road looking rack to upgrade not just the capabilities of your Taco, but the looks of it.

Prinsu Roof Rack Weight Limit

This Prinsu Tacoma roof rack has a dynamic weight capacity of 600 lbs, that’s when the vehicle is in motion. It then has a static weight capacity of 1000 lbs, that is when your vehicle is parked.

Needless to say, such a high load rating allows you to carry any item that you can imagine over this cab rack. Whether that’s a roof top tent, a cargo box, RotoPax, Maxtrax, fishing equipment or other gear, the rack can handle it. 1000 lbs of load rating is one of the safest capacities in the market and it can really handle almost everything. As a rule of thumb, try to keep the weight of the cargo on the rack the same or below its load rating.

Since it is completely modular, you can choose how you want it configured depending on the need, adding more slats or even taking some off. It comes with standard 6 cross bars (slats) for cargo. Keep in mind that with less slats, the weight capacity of the rack decreases, whilst with more slats it increases.

As a side note, this rack works both with sunroof and no sunroof configurations. If you have a sunroof, you can tilt it open with all the slats installed. If you want to fully open it, you can easily remove a few slats and still use the other slats to carry equipment. You can then just put back all the slats when you need to carry more or heavier gear.

Prinsu Roof Rack Tacoma Wind Noise

This roof rack comes with a 1/8″ 5052 aluminum plate wind deflector to help reduce both the wind noise and resistance, thus increasing the aerodynamics of your rig. Add to that an already included noise reducing trim which attaches directly to the wind deflector to fill the gap between your Taco’s roof and the rack. This rubber trim is designed to avoid impact with the vehicle, as well as withstanding all weather conditions.

Finally, this is one of the lowest profile roof racks in the world, adding just 2″ to the top of your cab, therefore the wind resistance and noise is kept to a minimum.

Prinsu Roof Rack Tacoma Light Bar

If you want to add a light bar to your rack, it’s simple. Prinsu gives you the option of choosing the wind deflector with a built-in cutout for 40″ to 42″ wide lightbars. The deflector still acts quite well against wind resistance, and you can mount any brand of led light bar to it.

Cali Raised LED 42″ Lightbars are offered in case you’d like to pair your Prinsu rack with an amazing and solid light bar. Make sure to select yours when choosing the product’s variants. In case you’d like to read more about the light bars, here they are:
