Introducing the Sherpa Matterhorn Roof Rack for 4Runner (1996-2002). An all-new design for the rack that started it all. This battle-tested full-length aluminum roof rack, for the 1996-2002 3rd Gen 4Runner, has been proven to get your gear to some of the most remote places in the country. Explore more and worry less with Sherpas industry-leading ¼” thick aircraft-grade aluminum side panels and stainless steel hardware. Secure your gear by bolting into one of the 9 extrusion crossbars or by strapping it directly to the side plates. This rack is “drill-free” and requires zero modification to your vehicle utilizing the factory roof tracks for easy installation.
