Packaged well. Arrived quickly. Took a bit to assemble everything. Take your time and read the instructions and check fit of parts before tightening down. Install went quick. Very sturdy- I weigh 190 lbs and no issues at all. Love the look. It doesn't impair my camera or rear-view mirror near as much as I had thought it would. I have used it many times since to load and unload the roof rack (RCI full length- no compatibility issues at all). Had a number of people ask about it (normally when getting gas) and I fully recommend.
Finally added the ladder to my mods a year after installing my Victory full rack. I had my ladder sent to my dad's house in Colorado for when I road-tripped out there and it was packaged very well! The only thing I'd recommend for the ladder specifically would be to assemble the rack before it's shipped out. There's a lot of hand gymnastics you have to do to piece together everything. Not to mention, getting the holes to line up because everything was a tight fit. However once our together (which was the longest part of the install) it was smooth sailing. It's very sturdy and looks incredible on my 4Runner. Also upgraded my struts and the hatch opens and closes with ease. Love Victory products and will continue to use them exclusively!!!!
Ladder is of great quality and looks fantastic on my 4Runnee.
I have modded my vehicle only with Victory products.
Top notch quality!!!
First off this thing was packaged well. There was no way it was going to be damaged in transit.
Installation was a bit fiddly for one person and it all went together well. I have a 2021 4Runner and installing the screws in the bottom plate took a few hand gymnastics to get it done, if you have bit mitts this might be something for someone with smaller hands. Be sure you order heavy duty struts as the hatch will not support on stock ones. We will see how this holds up on the trail and with use! - Thank you Victory Team!
Arrived a little later then expected but it was worth the wait . Apon arrival I noticed that everything was packaged well, box undamaged and all hardware accounted for. Material was great and the ladder looks great with my Overland full bravo rack. I modified the 3m tape and got some clear protected adhesive after reading some of the issues here. So far 3 months and I haven't had a problem.
Works great, extremely sturdy and rigid, fitment and design are excellent. Fits well with the full roof rack. Only gripe was the install - needed to install the bottom plate first in order to get it flush with the hatch so it could close.
Solid ladder, easy install. Make sure you get the upgraded struts. Very happy with it!
Overall impressed with the quality. The ladder itself has a pretty killer looking design. However, the top plate moves forward and contacts the body. I reinstalled it with fresh 3m tape and got some touch up paint applied but it began to do the same thing shortly after. Regardless I am still very happy with the purchase.
Paul, please reach out to our team and we can help troubleshoot. The 3M VHB should be holding it, is it slipping on the paint or on the rack itself? You my have some wax residue on the paint that is limiting the bond.
I would have given this a 4.5 star rating if that was possible for the simple reason that the top clasps and bottom clasps on the hatch did not completely line up on the 2020 4Runner hatch. At the top of the hatch the ladder kept moving forward and indented the main body. Not a bit deal as it was easy to touch up in that closed space but a nuisance nonetheless. In order to keep the top of the ladder from continuing to slide forward (even with the body tape provided) I had to send a bolt through the top plate of the ladder through the top of the hatch. After securing it in that manner, things have been fine and it is rock solid.
I really like the flat steps and the solid feel of the ladder. No problems so far after climbing up about 100 times to strap things onto the roof rack.
Installation was easy following the directions.
Highly recommended and I would certainly buy another.
This ladder was put together extremely well. While I was assembling it and installing it I found that the pieces were very very snug. This did make it a little more difficult when bolting everything together but in the end I would definitely recommend this ladder to anyone who wants a nice beefy upgrade to their 4Runner. I will say the one negative is that the install video and instructions seem to be geared toward 4th generation 4runners so if you're driving a 5th gen you'll have to do some common sense alterations to the steps. All the parts were there, no extra pieces and it honestly was not that hard to install.
Over all, I love the look of the ladder however the fit is terrible. I have the top plate as snug as possible but yet it has completely scraped the paint off the inside of my hatch area from opening and closing. I have taken it off 2 times and rebuilt it once and it still rubs heavily. This is on a 10k mile 4Runner so overall I wouldn't recommend as I have met 2 others that have the same problem.
Well built, very sturdy, easy install. Only complaint would be that the install video needs to be updated (couple of thr parts are different than video) and include 5th gen 4runner. You will need to buy new struts to hold your hatch up as the added weight prevents the hatch from staying up. Just something to keep in mind, not a big deal. Overall, great product and def would recommend over competitors.
This ladder is well made, installs easily and is a fab addition to my 4Runner. My only complaint....getting it out of the box with the injected styrofoam took longer than the install. No joke. It shipped well but sucked getting it out of the box. You should have seen the mess. Lol You won't be disappointed with the ladder, once out of the box
High quality in every aspect. Great design, with real functionality. Very pleased with everything, customer service, lead times and communication and easy install!
This is hands down the Best looking and best built ladder in my opinion!! It isn't a skimpy tube ladder and it has plenty of places to mount items. I love mine and wouldn't consider anyone else's ladder. Assembly was super easy and it is solid built!
First customer service was amazing to get this out to me at my bug out house! Love the look of the ladder and functionality. Over the last few days of the cold in Michigan The tailgate did get heavy and not want to stay up.
Got back to Florida and she stays up no problem at all. I also did change out the tape!
Thanks for the great service!
like others Have said the tape is under par for me after initial install the 1st step the latter moved side to side the top bracket Can be designed a little better to grip the hatch at an appropriate angle I also recommend dumping the provided tape and getting automotive double sided and he sieve strips. When you order your ladder order the heavy duty struts as well. Over all you can't be the pricing and the quality of the product I'm very happy with the and will enjoy it for some time
We are evaluating the tape in the kit and will be upgrading it. Thanks for the honest review!
I wanted a ladder that looked more beefy and manly! Not round bars. This ladder follows the boxy look of my '15 Trail Edition without looking like an erector set (like another similar brand ladder). Only one little remark about the powder coating- it easily scratches off. My ladder came with 3 scratches already on it and even when smooth plastic of my recovery traxx slid across it, the powder coat came off (trying to figure out how to mount them). I'll have to apply touch-up paint and the guys here told me what to use. Love the ladder and the MOLLE I also got. Thanks Victory!
Let me start with the good stuff because it far outways the bad. The look with my SS Offroad rack is exactly what I was going for. The powder coating was nice fully coated and smooth. The welds were flawless, and the directions were perfect. Now for the bad, while the engineering "hooked and taped" plate is a solid idea (just like the Gobi ladder) the 3M tape is definitely not the right tape. USE 3M AUTOMOTIVE DOUBLE SIDED TAPE (Black with red peel from auto store). I will have to uninstall my ladder today (the day after initial install) in order to place automotive 3M tape. W/O using quality tape the top plate will slide and pinch in the top when the trunk lid is opened. I will also apply 3M tape between all contact points to ensure full secured contact. Lastly, I would advice using some clear sealer for the drilled holes in the bottom of the trunk lid to protect from leakage. Hope this Helps! LOVE THE LADDER! HATE THE TAPE!
I have been waiting for a ladder like this for some time. I love the look moreso than others on the market. I prefer to remain brand loyal and it matches great with their other pieces!
