Question:

Can you recommend a roof rack for a 2017 Lexus GX? Flush mount rails. I read that the OEM rails don’t allow enough space for a cargo box Thanks

Expert Reply:

We can absolutely get your 2017 Lexus GX 460 with flush mounted rails set up for a roof rack so you can use a cargo box, and the best option is a rack from Inno. The reason I like this option the most is because they have low-profile, aerodynamic crossbars that create an aftermarket roof rack for your vehicle. It has aluminum bars that have T-slots that let you mount channel-mounted carriers and accessories. The flexible rubber strips in T-slots keep out dirt and won't need trimming. The parts that make up the rack that fits your '17 GX 460 will include aero crossbars 48" and 51" long, Inno feet for the crossbars, and a fit kit. The part number are the following: # INXB123-130, # INXS350, and # INTR152.

For the cargo box, I highly recommend the Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Roof Cargo Box # Y95AV.

This is an easy-to-use box with a lid that opens from either side, clamps on for simple installation, and comes with locks to secure your cargo.
