Gobi will be releasing their Stealth and Ranger rack along with a ladder for the GX470 next week!

I should have some pictures soon and will share them on here. Really excited to see Gobi tackle the GX since our roof rack options are pretty limited. The ladder will be the only non custom/stand alone option on the market, unless you count those expensive ebay ones that you need to get overnighted from Japan.

Should have some more details soon, just wanted to give everyone a heads up!

Sweet! Definitely excited to see that ladder. I know exactly what your talking about with those eBay ones, I've been wanting a ladder option for a while now.
 
Don't know if you beat me to the punch or if this is coincidence. I have a Gobi ladder on my 80 and love it - was just this weekend considering reaching out to them to see about something for the GX.

Great news, thx for passing this along!
 
Let the Group Buy chatter commence!!!
 
I don't even own a GX and I'm excited to hear this. The community for 120s is slowly growing, now we need ARB to release a direct fit bumper.
 
Oh ok, well nevermind then.

BTW, were you at Overland expo East this year? Pretty sure I saw your GX there

LOLLLLL. Stoked to see it on your Truck Matt, favorite GX I have seen built yet. Keep it up!
 
I ca confirm what Matt said about the Gobi rack they are using my GX for the pattern and test fit I was over there last week and they took some measurements should hear back from them soon to test fit. They also have a GX460 rack in the works and they appear to be about the same dimensions. The ladder will work with and without the spoiler. I will update and get pictures as soon as it we get it worked out..
 
Hey guys, here's Gobi's latest Stealth rack and ladder for the GX470! I'm working on a group buy with them and I should have pricing later on this week, please let me know if you're interested. Once I have all the details, I will be posting the official group buy threads on here as well as on the Facebook group GXOR!

Cheers!
 
Looks awesome. Is the ladder attached to the door, does it swing out with the door when you open it? Could you post a photo above the rack looking down to show what kind of platform it has?
 
I stopped being lazy and went to their website, which has some good pictures of the ladder on the open door and details of the rack from above: LEXUS GX-470 · STEALTH RACK· REG SETUP · WITH SUNROOF | Gobi Racks

I wonder if they would do a custom version for me with no crossbar in the middle so that I could throw a sleeping pad up there and do some open air camping on top of my truck, it looks like it could be pretty comfy.

Hey Lucas, from my experience with them I don't think that will be a problem. Also keep in mind they have the removable crossbar option now, just something to consider. I will keep you posted!

The ladders are very stout, I would worry more about the stress on your door hinge though with the added weight of a tire (swap out to a shock setup?) Anything is possible I guess :steer:

If there is a group buy for this, do you think those of us just interested in the ladder would be able to get in on it?
