Description

Roof Rack | Evolution Series | Lexus GX460 (10-23)

✓ Vehicle: 2010-2023 Lexus GX460

✓ Finish: Stealth Black or Signature Silver Accents, satin textured powder coat

✓ Material: Laser cut aluminum side rails, 3/16" inner with 1/8" outer layer

✓ Rack Dimensions: 81" x 47.5" x 2.5"

✓ Weight: 49 lbs

✓ Load Rating: 300 lbs Dynamic / 1000 lbs Static

✓ Warranty: Limited Lifetime

✓ Made in USA: Made to order in Kalamazoo, Michigan

Your GX460 runs out of room quickly once recovery gear, camp kit and a cooler go in, and a roof top tent needs a platform you can trust overnight. The Evolution Series gives you that platform with a strong, low-profile rack that grows with your build, so your gear rides up top and the cabin stays open.

Strength comes from layered side rails, a 3/16" aluminum inner rail backed by a 1/8" outer layer, which carry a 1000 lb static rating while keeping the whole rack at just 49 lbs. Versatility comes from milled t-nut drop-in spots and a convertible front fairing, so lights, awnings, tents and recovery boards bolt on wherever you need them. Every Evolution rack is laser cut, formed and bolted together with no welds, because welding softens aluminum around every weld.

Want to see that strength in the real world? See what happened when a 200-year-old oak fell on an Evolution rack.

You also choose the look. Stealth Black gives you a clean profile that matches your factory trim, while Signature Silver Accents finishes the outer rail layer in textured silver for the Victory style that stands out at the trailhead.

Victory 4x4 has built over 10,000 roof racks in Kalamazoo since 2019, and every one is made to order by the team that designed it.

Built Strong

Layered side rails with a 3/16" inner rail and 1/8" outer layer, laser cut from aluminum for rigidity without the weight of steel

Convertible front fairing that sits raised for a finished look or drops down for a 40" single-row light bar
Fits roof top tents, awnings, recovery boards, lighting and our full line of rack accessories
Two finishes so the rack matches the build you have in mind

FAQ

Which years does it fit?
It fits the 2010 to 2023 Lexus GX460.

How much weight can it hold?
It is rated for 300 lbs dynamic and 1000 lbs static, enough for a rooftop tent and the people sleeping in it, while the rack itself weighs just 49 lbs.

Will it carry a rooftop tent or awning?
Yes. Add the Roof Top Tent Mounting Brackets or Awning & Accessory Mounts, which bolt to the crossbars with standard t-slot hardware.

Does my sunroof still work?
Yes, the sunroof tilts and slides normally with the rack installed.

How high does it sit?
The rack sits 2.5" above the highest point of the roof.

Can I run a light bar?
Yes. Choose the light bar cutout version, which includes light bar mounting brackets. The fairing fits a single-row bar up to 41.25" lens housing width, and bars up to 43.5" mounting stud width fit after trimming the fairing.

Will my 4Runner rack fit the GX460?
No, the GX460 has its own rack, since the 4Runner and GX460 racks are different.

How do I mount gear?
Milled t-nut drop-in spots let you add t-slot hardware anywhere along the rack without pulling the crossbars. Cargo boxes mount right to the crossbars, since Thule box clamps pinch the crossbar and Yakima grippers wrap around it.

Will the fairings scratch my paint?
We recommend paint protection film under the front and rear fairings where they touch the vehicle, so trail dust can't scratch the paint over time.

Great… Rack!

The rack showed up a couple of months before I could get around to installing it, but all went well on the manufacturing and shipping part. Got around to installing the rack a couple of weeks ago, and I absolutely love it! I ran Inno roof racks last summer, but wanted to run a roof top tent, my 270° awning, and some accessories. The Innos could handle it, but I really wanted the extra stability, and the rack looks so good! Installation took a couple of hours alone, and was very easy. I used butyl tape as opposed to silicone, aa our winters last almost 6 months where I live, and I'd like to remove the rack for those months. I currently have the Victory front and rear molles, so I wanted to keep the roof rack in the same family! I just ordered their 7/8" roof top tent brackets; excited to get those mounted as well!

Love It

I'll make this quick:
- Accurate lead and shipping time quoted
- Arrived packaged well
- Super easy to install, loved the QR code and emailed versions of installation instructions along with the video
- Looks great and works well with the sunroof

The service from this company was also unmatched, they reached out a few weeks after delivery to make sure it arrived and I was able to install it with no issues!

Good Rack. Great Looks.

I chose to purchase the Victory rack for my 2017 GX460 based on two factors: online reviews and the way the rack sits on the vehicle. In my opinion, this is the best-looking roof rack on the market.

I installed the rack myself in about two hours. I have worked with extruded aluminum before, so there might be a bit of a learning curve if you have never threaded steel bolts into aluminum before. It is not difficult, but there is a certain feel and touch that can help you avoid stripping the threads.

I have hauled a sheet of plywood, kayaks, bicycles, and a stand-up paddle-board on the rack. So far, so good!

My one other piece of advice is to try to plan your use cases for the rack well before you need to load it up. Mounting things to any aluminum extrusion takes a bit of forethought and planning. I do not see this as a knock against Victory, because any style of rack that uses similar extrusions will have similar challenges. I have purchased several extra bolt sets and other mounting hardware, both from Victory and third-party suppliers, to round out my kit and have the flexibility to secure many different loads.

2008 GX470 Rack

Fast shipping, easy to assemble, packaged wonderfully, very light, and of course looks super clean! Had to tinker with the front fairing a bit to get the wind noise down to a minimum. FYI for people with gx470 that I learned that wasn't mentioned in the video. The weather stripping between the rear and middle rack to body mounts need to be cut a few inches, the middle mount will not lay flush on the bolt holes until you cut the strip. Secondly they recommend putting the weather stripping provided in the kit on the pointed corners of the back of the rack. On the gx470 those corners don't touch the car but the middle of the rack does. So instead of cutting the remaining strip in half and putting them on those corners, I just centered the strip in the middle of the rack on the back side. Otherwise I followed all other directions and everything went smoothly

Rack Em' Up!

Its hard for me to be impressed this day in age and very few things exceed my expectations; however, this roof rack from Victory 4x4 has far exceeded my expectations. I have a 2017 White Lexus GX460. I recently had it lifted 3", new black rims (Method), and new tires (Nitto Grappler). I needed something to tie it all together, and this rack accomplished my objectives. It looks great! I've had multiple compliments on the truck. The rack is extremely sturdy and well built. It took me about 2 hours, start to finish, to install it. The installation video was spot on. It fits the top of the 460 like a glove and looks great. I'm excited for my future off-roading adventures and carrying my canoe. This is an excellent product. Glad I went with this one over the others on the market.

One Badass Rack!

I put this bad boy on about 6 months ago and have utilized non stop during camping season here in Colorado. I Love this thing and would highly recommend it! Easy to assemble, easy to instal, looks awesome and performs beautifully.

Great Roof Rack

The roof rack is a great fit and looks good. It was and easy assembly and install.
I would say overall I like the rack and would recommend it.
I was disappointed that the rack did not come black nuts and bolts instead of having to pay extra for them.

Nice Rack!!!

Just installed my Victory 4x4 roof rack on my 2015 GX460. Video instructions was spot on. Easy to follow. Perfect fit and finish. The quality of this product is far superior from other manufacturer. Cannot wait to install accessories for the rack. Could not be happier with the ease of installation. We'll be buying other products from Victory. It's a WINNER.

Almost Perfect

If you are interested in a Victory 4x4 rack, I am almost certain we were both looking at their competitors. I purchased this around 2/2020 and as of this review I have had a good 5 months of use and experience so I would like to give my feedback to help others.

I just didn't like the look of Baja Rack or Front Runner although they are just as functional! (Probably easier to place and mount any and all accessories to be totally honest. You aren't limited to placement and mounting points on a crossbar style rack. You also aren't limited to mounting hardware either). If I am going to spend $1k+ on a roof rack the looks must factor into the equation! I narrowed it down to Prinsu or Victory. I watched their GX460 YouTube install and found it very helpful. There was a question in the comment section that distinguish their rack from others and this really helped make my decision. One of the features is the mounting brackets that attach the roof to the rack are made out of steel. Prinsu's "bracket" is part of their aluminum side panel that is a bent tab. Since Prinsu is a very very popular roof rack I have not heard of any failures on this point. However, just for my piece of mind I wanted to go with the steel mounting bracket instead.

The quality, fit and finish are great. I had no problems with fitment issues and it was very straight forward. I had a problem with shipping from UPS at no fault of Victory 4x4. I e-mailed them and told them UPS damaged the box and upon further inspection, the separate box of hardware had fell out and was lost. The very next morning, I was contacted by Mitchell and he shipped out another set of hardware that day! Exceptional customer service!

I have loaded my roof rack with your typical rife case, traction boards and 2 wavian jerry cans. The jerry cans by far weight the most -- 25-30ish pounds x2. It is mounted with the dual BajaRack jerry can holder. I mounted this in the center of the rack and noticed a lot of "bounce" but it never bottomed out and it never hit my roof. I thought about it more and after 10-15 trouble free miles on a mountain trail, I decided to shift it over closer to the side rail for more support. I am more confident with this setup now.

Mounting, hardware and size of bolts really isn't easy information to find. You have to do some research. Here is what I've learned.
These aluminum bars accept 1/4-20 carriage bolts because it has a square neck that slots into the rack, thus not spinning when you attach a nut to the threaded portion in comparison to your typical button head counterpart. The width of the rack opening is also 1/4". However, I had to grind down and "square off" the round carriage bolt edges to fit into the slot before sliding into the rail. I also had to grind down 2 sides of the square neck....we are talking 1mm each side due to clearance issues. It took me a while to figure this out! 1/4-20 t-bolts also fit but again I had to grind down and just angle the side edges a little. In my personal opinion, I do not think t-bolts are a higher torque/load type of nut so I would just stick with carriage bolts. I also found 1/4-20 "eye lifting" bolts that are the rings for tie downs. They are threaded to accept the 1" carriage bolts since I bought a 50 pack but the threads protrude into the eye hole a bit but there is enough space for a hook or rope. 3/4" carriage bolt would work better.

T-nut hardware is a little oval threaded plate that you can slide into the rail and bolt from the top down. The biggest limitation is the depth since it will bottom out into the rail. So you either have to calculate the thickness of whatever you are mounting and factor that into the length of the bolt. It's super complicated and or restrictive. The only application I use this setup is for my quick fist mounts. The bolt is flush and out of the way of my shovel and it was included in my hardware kit so made use of it. If you were to use a carriage bolt the nut would be proud and may cause interference, or again, you'd have to grind down the threaded portion for clearance.

I did encounter my crossbar bolts backing out on the trail even though I double checked and tighten each one before heading out. Perhaps user error? Maybe include split locking washers? I am going to blue locktite everything. $50 extra for black hardware was a bit much but I did it anyways.

The overall versatility of the aluminum crossbar is good but not great. This was my compromise for form over function. Tubular style basket racks give you the confidence of holding your gear in place and won't fall off the sides. You can pretty much place whatever accessory any where you want and you really aren't limited to specific mounting brackets and hardware. It really comes down to what you need and what you pack. For example, if you pack a lot of soft bags, boxes or firewood a basket style would be a better option for simplicity and not having to buy special hardware for mounting points, just need straps or rope! The front runner rack has a similar channel style mounting system but the platform is very large, wide and stable.

I do like the basket that Victory just came out with. But I also would like the concept of an optional modular "side rail" that sort of mimics a basket style rack. That would be cool.

I wish the aluminum rails had cut outs to accept bolts on both sides! I'm sure the cost to do this is minimal. You have to "pre-plan" when you set up your accessories. For example, I have all of my hole cut outs on the passenger side. I mount my shovel and slide it over to the drivers side and then my traction boards on the passenger side. If i were to change my mind and wanted to move my shovel to the very rear, I'd have to remove my traction boards, slide out that hardware just to get to my shovel hardware. This is a real world situation out on the trail. Ask me how I know!

One last thing, the cutouts for the aluminum crossbars to adjust forward and back are very limited. I think Prinsu has more cutouts allowing you to slide the crossbar virtually anywhere you want. Or even add more crossbars. I ran into a few issues that limited me to where I could mount my accessories because the crossbar didn't adjust to where I needed it.

I am still very pleased with my purchase and got it when Victory had a sale and it looks great on the GX. Every time I use it I gain more confidence in the durability and versatility for my specific use but it does have a learning curve. Victory 4x4 is a great company and their customer service is top notch. I will continue to support them and can't wait for new products to come out!

Everyone loves a beautiful rack

After doing tons of research I ended up at Victory 4x4. They are a hidden gem in this big industry, the attention to detail in this rack was amazing and have a feeling they are just getting started. The fitment and how to video was spot on. This was a huge upgrade for the GX, fit like a glove

Solid rack with solid customer support

Since I didn't have any help to lift the rack once assembled, I laid all the parts on the floor and assembled one by one on the roof of my GX460. I started with the main posts, then the rails, the rest of the parts just bolted right in. no adjustments or modifications needed. It has been 3 months since I installed the rack, no noticeable change in MPG and wind noise. My only regret is not ordering the fairing with the light cutout.

Perfect fit

First, thank you for the fast shipping. received the rack in a week after I ordered. Installation was a little challenging for me since I did not have any help, so I resorted to assemble the rack directly on to the roof. took longer than normal, but all the parts bolted in perfectly with no slight issue. The youtube video helped out a lot also and was very detailed with the assembly. So far I have loaded some sheets of plywood on top for my diy drawer system.

Great Rack and gets rid of the soccer mom look from the GX460 (My wife said that)

Assembly: If you can use a screwdriver this should be very easy. The instructions video on YouTube was very thorough and easy to follow. This is a very easy rack to assemble. The only hard part is placing the rack on the vehicle. I used my wife and daughter (we are a tall family) to place it very gently on top of the GX. I did roll up some small towels, just as a precaution, and placed the racks feet upon the towels. That was the hardest part which was not that hard. Take your time and all should go well.
Function: I have had two small Yakima racks on it at once with no problems. I put a piece of plywood on top and used some homemade T-nuts to secure it. My wife and I put chairs on top and watched a concert in the park. I am impressed with the strength and the things you can do with it due to the T-Nut function. I am also very happy that the powder coating is holding up well in the Florida sun.
So far, the rack has held up great and we have used it on some light overland trips and on some long vacation trips to the Florida Keys. There is no extra wind noise noticeable by my ear and the decibel app on my iPhone. It does allow you to use your sunroof a bit more. It seems to get rid of the buffeting that I had without the rack.
It is a great product that if nothing else takes the "Soccer Parents look" out of the Gx 460
Future plans are to order the Victory Awning Mounts and maybe the Accessory Mounts for some Rotopax containers.
