Height Added to 2014 Lexus GX 460 with Install of Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform and Backbone System

Question

Question:

Hi, I am very interested in the rhino backbone and i would also need the rack as well. I would like to know the total height of the backbone and roof rack. The reason why I ask is that I would need it to fit in my garage. I have 5 inches of room to fit the roof rack.

The Rhino-Rack Backbone Mounting System # RRRTPB1 is going to add between 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 inches to the roof of your vehicle depending on where you measure. The platform trays like the # RR93AB which includes the backbone and fit your 2014 Lexus GX 460 would add another 2 inches so you'd be most likely at 5- 6 inches of additional height.
