I am considering adding 2 more cross bars to the stock roof rack with the goal of being able to carry a cargo box and a couple of traction boards. I suppose I could order from the local dealer, but knowing many have replaced their stock racks... question is there a forum to search for these used? Thanks for any steer! DS

There is a member on the forums - Eric Sarjeant - he works at a dealer that specializes in custom LC work. They do a ton of take offs and he has been known to be a good source for extra LC cross bars. You may ask him.

@Eric Sarjeant any chance you happen to have LC roof rack cross bars for sale? thx, DS
+1 Eric Sarjeant and his team are great guys. They sent me LC rails and crossbars all for the cost of shipping.
I plan on retrofitting the longer LC roof rails on my LX and run 6 cross-bars as an OEM+ roof rack setup until I get a Prisnu.

I just ordered my Frontrunner Slimline II rack this morning. Sometime in the next few weeks, I should have a 2018 LC rack available to anyone who is willing to pay for shipping. Of course, local pickups here in Boise, ID are ok too.

I found used OEM cross bars on this forum. Search and you shall find. Have you looked at rear hitch cargo? They hold a lot of stuff and easy to remove. Helps keep fuel costs down and is cheaper than a roof box. Both have pros and cons. Good luck brah!

Yes have used the rear hitch carrier. we have a number of accessories we hang off the back
but for current trip need, we will be putting the roof box on with, traction boards, a backend full, plus 4 bikes off the back! love this machine - it is like a swiss army knife!
Definitely a underrated mod. 4 oem and 2 from ebay. Could probably squeeze 1 more in. Would love to extend it for more coverage.
I run a Yakima box on my roof with 2 OEM cross bars. If weight is a concern you’ll overload the roof box before you’ll overload the cross bars. My Yakima is only rated to hold 50 lbs.

Thanks and should have clarified that is not the concern; as it turns out, my thule roof box cross bar spacing required for mounting does not align with my maxtrax tie point spacing and thus the need for 4 bars to accommodate both up top!
Sorry, I know this is an old thread…. However.
I’m in the process of removing my roof platform and going back to the factory OEM rails. I would like to get some of the crossbars, did any one notice if these ad any extra wind noise when travelling at higher speeds?

I did not notice any noise difference when I had two or four crossbars.

I agree - definitely an underrated mod - all 6 OEM, and one more will not fit...
