Description

RCI Off Road Roof Rack - Toyota Tacoma (2005-Present)

American Made. No-Drill Installation. Lifetime Durability.

The Industry's Best Value Roof Rack

The all-new RCI Tacoma Double Cab Roof Rack is a premium, high-capacity system designed specifically for the 2005-2023 and the new 2024+ Toyota Tacoma. This rack is the perfect blend of lightweight performance and rugged strength, featuring laser-cut and CNC-machined aluminum components.

Engineered and Manufactured in the USA, this rack requires NO drilling or permanent vehicle modification. With adjustable and removable extruded “T-Slot” cross-bars, you have unlimited flexibility to mount everything from recovery gear to rooftop tents.

The Problem & The Solution:

The Pain: Most racks require drilling holes in your roof, use messy silicone to prevent leaks, or use heavy steel that eventually rusts.
The RCI Solution: We use a 100% Bolt-On design with injection-molded rubber mounting blocks that cushion the rack and seal out moisture without any silicone. Plus, our all-aluminum construction is epoxy-primed and powder-coated for ultimate corrosion resistance.

Key Features: Built for the Long Haul

No Drilling Required

Completely bolt-on design utilizes existing factory mounting holes. No drilling or modification is required other than minor trimming of the rubber roof gutter trim.

Advanced Moisture Seal

Unique injection-molded rubber mounting blocks lift and cushion the rack feet while creating a watertight seal without the need for silicone sealant.

Lightweight Strength

Constructed from 1/4″ 5052 aluminum side panels and 1″x 2″ black anodized T-slot cross-bars. Strong enough for RTTs while weighing only 32-39 lbs.

Low Profile Aerodynamics

The rack sits only 1.75″ above the truck's highest point. The front wind fairing matches the roof contour to minimize wind noise and drag.

Premium Finish

We use an epoxy primer base coat followed by a heavy-duty black textured powder coat for an exponentially more durable finish than the competition.

Accessory Ready

Built-in side panel slots and machined T-slots allow for easy mounting of Maxtrax, Rotopax, Hi-Lift jacks, awnings, and side lighting.

Precision Engineered Performance

Every RCI Off Road rack undergoes a CNC deburring process to eliminate sharp edges, providing a high-end finished appearance. The T-slot bars come pre-machined to accept nut plates and carriage bolts, so you can add or move accessories without ever having to remove the bars from the rack.

32-39 lbs Total Weight 45 Mins Install Time Aluminum 5052 Alloy Heavy Duty RTT Ready Available Lighting Options:
  • Diode Dynamics 40″ Stage Series (White or Yellow)
  • Optional RCI Light Bar Mounting Brackets

Customer Reviews ★★★★★

"Install was a breeze on my 2022 Double Cab. It took exactly 45 minutes as advertised. The rubber mounting blocks are a game changer—I've been through three heavy storms and not a single drop of water inside the cab. It's incredibly sturdy and holds my roof top tent with zero flex."

- Mark S., Verified Tacoma Owner

Frequently Asked Questions

+ Is any drilling required for installation?

No. The RCI Tacoma Roof Rack is an entirely bolt-on design that utilizes existing factory mounting holes located under the rubber roof trim. You only need to cut small sections of the rubber trim to access these holes.

+ Do I need to use silicone to seal the mounting points?

Unlike many other racks, RCI includes injection-molded rubber mounting blocks. These provide a physical compression seal that keeps moisture out of your cab without the mess of RTV silicone.

+ Will this rack work with a Roof Top Tent (RTT)?

Yes! The heavy-duty 1/4" aluminum side panels and 1"x2" T-slot cross-bars are specifically designed to support the weight of roof top tents and other heavy overland gear.

+ Does it fit the Access Cab?

No, this specific model is designed exclusively for the Double Cab (4-door) configuration of the Toyota Tacoma.

California Residents

Prop 65 Warning- Product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

Proposition 65 is a California law passed in 1986. Its goals are to protect drinking water sources from toxic substances that may cause cancer and birth defects and to reduce or eliminate exposures to those chemicals generally, for example in consumer products, by requiring warnings in advance of those exposures.

The regulation requires the State of California to revise and republish yearly a list of chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm. The current list contains over 900 naturally occurring and synthetic chemicals. This regulation also requires manufacturers to place warnings on products that contain any of the chemicals listed by the State of California. No other states require warnings of this nature, and products with Prop 65 warning language are legal to sell in all states. Detailed information regarding requirements for compliance to the California Prop. 65 is can be found at: www.P65Warning.ca.gov
