Our full height fairing is built for people that don't want to put a light bar on their rack. While our half height fairing is made so that you can fit a single row light bar on your rack while keeping it all flush.
I received my rack a few weeks ago and mounted it mostly by myself without any issues. I followed the youtube video that Sherpa has on mounting the Crestone and it worked perfectly, no wind noise, solid as… I’m happy. My only comment is that the crossbar slots are slightly smaller than the standard bolt that came with the Prinsu mounts that I chose for mounting my tent. I had to file down the prinsu bolt heads just a bit to get them to fit into the crossbar slots. I thought it odd that the slot width wouldn’t match a standard size bolthead (I tried finding a slightly smaller one, but there wasn’t one). Anyway, it all worked out and my tent is mounted and I’ve enjoyed two outings with the new setup and am very happy. Thanks for a great product!
Easy to assemble, looks great on my truck.
Awesome fit and great customer service
The rack wasn’t hard to put together just time consuming by yourself. Definitely doable with 1 person just took longer. If you as mounting a RTT, mine is the ikapmer 3.0 skycamp be sure to put some kind of weather stripping or something in between the rails and the cross bars. As I found it was metal against metal and was rubbing, squeaking when hitting bumps. I just bought some weather stripping from Walmart and working like a charm.
Great product, easy to install
I’ve put 160k miles on my Tacoma with the grand Teton roof rack, the bed rack, and a 350lb rooftop tent with 0 issues at all. Yes over time the coating chips off slightly in a few spots but it’s aluminum, won’t rust so who cares! It’s better than any other roof rack on the market just because of how it bolts to the roof of the truck. No weather sealant needed. They could easily charge 2000$ for this roof rack and I still would have bought it!
Pretty easy to put together, I did it by myself with was somewhat challenging but very doable. I have an ikamper 3.0 and it fits and looks great on my 25 Land Cruiser. Only issue is if you have an ikamper the rails need some kind of rubber strip or something to keep the tent from squeaking when hitting bumps and whatever else going down the road. I’m going to get some weather stripping to fix the issue. Other than that I’m very pleased. Not done with the build yet but it was my first order of business getting my tent on my LC.
To be honest… install wasn’t the easiest. The instructions were a little vague/brief. So that could be improved IMO.
The rack itself is awesome - super sturdy materials. I got the side window panels as well and those were pretty easy to install.
All in all - pretty happy with this!
Every part of this rack is quality. The assembly process was simple, with 85% of the build can be done by a single person. I tossed a good size blanket on top of roof when installing the crossbars. The video instructions and customer service were excellent. For my past builds (2011 FJ Cruiser, 2004 Disco 2) I bought Baja Racks. Those racks didn’t impress me and adding accessories were a pain due to the odd tube size of the frame.
I finally got around to installing my rack on my 2021 Toyota Sequoia. It replaced my stock TRD Pro rack that came with my vehicle. I am impressed with the quality of the rack components. I completed the install by myself and have to admit it took longer than I anticipated. During my research on the product I watched the install video several times and had it playing one a loop while I was installing it. The video does provide more information than the written instructions, which were not included (I get it , I can print them myself). Overall, I am happy with how it turned out and would highly recommend Sherpa products to anyone looking to upgrade the stock rack.
I fully built this alone with nothing but a small ratchet, mini electric screwdriver, and measuring tape. Installed on my own and was easy as plug and play. Fitment is perfection and quality really shows. I considered prinsu and Cali raised roof racks, but I am so glad I went with Sherpa. The Sherpa ecosystem is good too. They have lots of attachments for third party products like Rotopax out Baja design rock lights which fit like a glove. Only con is that the lead time was a little long. I believe it took 5 weeks to get mine here to California. Still worth it!
The Fremont rack installed extremely easy. I really appreciated the use of the rubber mounting feet as opposed to the previous prinsu rack I had that used silicone. I think using silicone was just fine but that process can be tricky for some peeps.
The best part was this rack bolted right into the pre-existing nuts I had installed from the Prinsu rack.
Overall the rack has an extremely sturdy feel and has an endless amount of mountability. T channels are everywhere on this sucker. Almost a year later with this rack and its flawless.
This rack coupled with the super slick window panels is an absolute game changer. And just when you think it can’t get any better you get to experience their world class customer service. Absolutely top notch company through and through.
Looks great. Holds everything. No issues on install, lined up fine. Follow directions and was a breeze. It's really quiet, even when I have the 128 roam box on. Gas mileage stayed same.
I love the quality on this rack and the assembly instructions via YouTube were great. It’s been sturdy through plenty of miles so far. Also the Baja light bar is a perfect upgrade to this setup for a sleek low profile look. 10/10! @overlxnd470
5 Stars all around. Ordered my Crestone Roof Rack on 23 Nov 2025 and received it on 5 Dec. Packaging was outstanding. Install went smoothly after watching the Sherpa install video on YouTube. The rack is solid-I can grab it and shake the 4Runner and the rack does not budge. I could not detect any change at all with wind noise while at highway speeds. The rack made no noise while out on rough gravel roads. Highly recommend. Please see photo-it makes the 4Runner look better.
dont spend the money on these racks.
theres absolutely no reason these racks should be $1500-$2k not including shipping. this is the type of quality I would expect from a cheap Amazon Chineseum rack not someone who boasts being made proudly in the American Rockies blah blah blah. Against my better judgement I bought a bundle for a black friday deal and every step of the process has been a let down but I trusted the reviews about how sturdy and well made they are. they are not. flimsy aluminum that feels more like injection molded plastic and whatever coating they put on these comes pre-peeling and chipped out of the box so they rust so thats cool. what makes it better is their "lifetime" warranty specifically doesnt include the poder coating. I dont care about fancy cnc milled logos I want a rack that works and doesnt make me nervous driving around with. im now wondering if all the "4x4 influencers" were just paid or given a free rack to say how awesome they are. I am not confident at all that this will hold onto my roof with any sort of load or a 270 awning and it doesnt even look like its specifically made for a sequoia more like modified to work on a sequoia. sherpa AI customer service chat bot loves to say things like "should be" or "usually" which is not reassuring that this thing isnt going to end up sending my stuff flying down the interstate. I should have just kept my stock bars and built my own rack and saved $1500. dont even think about trying to return it either their policy makes it not worth it to even try.
