Wondering if anyone has put an ARB roof rack designed to fit a prado 150 on their GX460? It appears ARB doesn’t make one specifically for the GX

In a word, Yes.
The Prado and GX are the same shell.
Except for interior appointments, engines available along with front and rear fascia, there are few differences.

Yes. I installed the following rack a few months ago: For 2010-2022 Toyota Prado J150 for Lexus GX 460 Roof Rack Rails Luggage Carrier | eBay - https://www.ebay.com/itm/134532340907?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D777008%26algo%3DPERSONAL.TOPIC%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20230811123856%26meid%3D9e4dee9926824808a63492cf0ed792c5%26pid%3D101770%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26itm%3D134532340907%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D4375194%26algv%3DRecentlyViewedItemsV2%26brand%3DUnbranded&_trksid=p4375194.c101770.m146925&_trkparms=parentrq%3A230f972218d0ab72afc1471dfffe5208%7Cpageci%3Aa491d10c-b6fb-11ee-81ad-86b4b1a41291%7Ciid%3A1%7Cvlpname%3Avlp_homepage
Takes about an hour and looks great I think. Tires are next.

My yakima platform mounts are the Australian version. No issues.

They are, however, different than 5th gen 4Runners.
Funny you should ask this. The ARB Base rack for the Prado 150 will fit the GX460 as its the same vehicle. If you ask ARB USA They will say no they dont have an option for the GX460. But if you get the Part number from the Prado 150 which is ARB-17921010 for the mounting kit ( rails) and either of these Racks.

@Alexhwilson42, those rails look great! I am looking at adding the Prado 150 raised rails to my 2020. Have you hauled anything with yours (I'm curious about the strength of these non-OEM rails)?
I'm debating on going with the OEM 150 rails sourced from Japan (expensive) or the aftermarket (ebay/amazon). I'm a little concerned with the strength and durability of the aftermarket options (I plan on hauling some kayaks), but the aftermarket is so much cheaper! Any advice on your experience would be appreciated.
Thanks

I have not. Haven't had to yet, is mainly for aesthetic. They feel pretty solid though, but are definitely made in China. Instructions for install were in Chinese.
How much weight will they support?
