Roof Rack Option For A 2016 Lexus GX460 With Factory Flush Rails
Question:
Good morning, I have a pair of Thule Evo blades and would like to mount them onto my gx460 I have flush mount rails. If I purchased the Evo Flush mount feet is there a kit I should buy to fit? If so can you help me with the kit? Thanks! 2016, Lexus GX460, with flush rails.

Good morning, Doug. I do have a potential solution for you, but I am sorry to say that Thule does not make a fit kit for the 2016 Lexus GX460. So, there is unfortunately no way to mount your Thule Evo bars on this vehicle.
Our best option would be to get a whole new roof rack. Yakima does make a fit kit for the 2016 GX460 flush rails, so one of their JetStream racks would be a great option that is comparable to Thule. The complete Yakima roof rack consists of the following parts:
- Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00425
- SkyLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y53TR
- Landing Pad 30 # Y25ZR

Thanks Jesse for the quick follow up. I was hoping I could find a cheaper option vs spending 7-800 bucks on a new setup. I appreciate the help and will definitely keep this option in mind though.
