Aluminium Roof Rack with Backbone for Toyota LandCruiser LC79 Double Cab (2007–Current) — T-Xplorer
Built for adventurers, tradies and serious tourers who need a roof rack that works as hard as they do, the TIGER-X T-Xplorer is a strong, weatherproof aluminium platform engineered for real loads. With a full backbone support system, reinforced alloy corners and a no-drill factory-gutter mount, it's the platform your 79 Series LandCruiser deserves — ready for rooftop tents, camping gear, recovery boards and everything the track throws at it.
Why a Backbone Roof Rack?
The backbone is the difference between a rack that survives the corrugations and one that cracks. It's a central spine that ties the platform directly to the mounting legs, spreading load evenly and dramatically reducing the flex and vibration that fatigue lesser racks on rough dirt roads. Combined with reinforced aluminium corners — not the plastic ones cheaper racks rely on — you get a genuinely rigid structure that holds a rooftop tent, drawers of gear or a full touring setup without twisting or rattling. It's the kind of engineering you only notice when everything else is falling apart around you.
Key Features
▪ High-grade aluminium construction — lightweight yet strong, so more of your payload goes to gear instead of the rack itself
▪ Matte black powder-coated finish — rust-proof, corrosion-resistant and built to handle harsh Australian weather year after year
▪ 2mm reinforced backbone — the perfect balance of toughness and low weight, tying the whole platform together for maximum rigidity
▪ Reinforced aluminium corners — real structural strength where cheaper racks use plastic
▪ Big 1600 × 1350mm platform — room for camping gear, tools, bikes, kayaks and a rooftop tent all at once
▪ 150kg dynamic / 300kg static load rating — more than capable of carrying a loaded rooftop tent setup
▪ No-drill factory-gutter mount — secure fitment with no holes drilled into your roof

No-Drill, Vehicle-Specific Fitment
Designed specifically for the Toyota LandCruiser LC79 Series Double Cab (2007–Current), the rack mounts directly to your factory roof gutters — the strongest, most secure anchor points on the 79 Series — with no drilling required. That means no holes in your roof, no compromised waterproofing and a clean, factory-integrated look. Clear fitting instructions are included, and professional installation is available if you'd rather leave it to the experts.
Get the Most From Your Setup
▪ Mount a rooftop tent — the 300kg static rating comfortably handles a hard-shell or soft-shell RTT plus occupants
▪ Add touring accessories — recovery board mounts (MaxTrax / TRED), awnings, jerry can holders, shovels and LED light bars all bolt to the platform
▪ Distribute your load — keep heavier items centred over the backbone and spread the weight for stable handling on and off road
▪ Mind your ratings & GVM — aluminium keeps rack weight low, leaving more of your roof and payload allowance for useful gear
