Question:
Looking to add a roof rack to my 2017 access cab Toyota Tacoma. Currently it’s bare and I want to use mounts that use the rain gutter channels vs something that latches down to the door frame. Does a manufacturer make something for that? Primary use on roof rack will be for work. Will be adding ladder rack in the near future.

Expert Reply:
For your 2017 Toyota Tacoma with access cab, there is not a gutter mount roof rack system confirmed to fit. I recommend the Rhino-Rack system that utilizes the door frame clips custom fit to your truck to resist scratching or damaging your vehicle. This kit consists of:
Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - 54" Long # RRVA137B-2
Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA
Custom DK Fit Kit # DK174
If you really don't want these clips there is an alternative in the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B. This uses 6 vacuum cups each rated for 210 lbs pull strength and will give you a roof rack with 150 lb capacity.
When you get ready to add a ladder rack, I recommend the T-Rac Pro2 Ladder Rack for Toyota Tacoma # TH37005XT. I've attached a video of this installation for you. This will fit whether or not you have the deck rail system. You may instead want # TH37005XT-EX that has the over-the-cab extension.
