I wish Prinsu would include or hell even sell additionally; a pre cut/drilled set of weather strips. It seems like the most complicated part of the whole job and gladly pay extra just to replace the factory ones with perfectly drilled ones from the rack maker.
Dude right!?!?! I would pay extra to have pre drilled ones haha it was a pain in the ass. I’m just happy my truck doesn’t have water leaking yet from the roof 🤣
I've seen people drill the weather stripping but I tried a paddle bit like you, a foster bit, and even a step bit and none of them made a very clean hole. I found marking the holes and just cutting it out with a very sharp razor was the best for me
@Good4_ThePuuwai Oh yeah. I'll change all of that eventually. I'm not doing anything at the moment that would require me to rush and get the lift, wheels, and tires done so i'm waiting for my tire tread to run low. That'll give me more time to save the $8,000 its gonna cost with labor haha
@@iAlwaysWinEverything dude seriously haha. Im stuck between buying "Small" things or just forcing my self to save and not buy anything until I have the lift, wheels, and tired paid for haha

Hands down the hardest part of the install

Yeah , I think and Xacto knife would cut a more precise hole , a little tedious and time consuming, but a better overall result .
Good install. I may add this as well👍
YES!!!!! LOOKS KILLER!!
Thanks man!!
Great video. Can you use a hole saw to cut through the weather strip and metal at the same time?
Yeah I’m sure you can. You only cut halfway through so just be careful not to go completely through
@@TacoManD4X4 why can you only go halfway through?
Did the wind noise reducer strip work? Is it worth buying?
It definitely does! Get it👍🏼
Yooo are those holes in your roof already threaded and ready for the spacers and bolts? Or do you have to remove your headliner to install this rack?
You have to remove the weather strip and the holes are already ore drilled you just have to drill through the tape covering them
@@TacoManD4X4 it’s already threaded right?
@@heavyhitter8637 yep!
Did the kit come with the spacers?
Will this fit on a tacoma sr5 double crew? Looks amazing
Yep!!👍🏼
I saw a section towards the front of the rack that is super close to the roofs paint, did you have any areas that it would rub?
Nope doesn’t rub at all. Not even the weather strip.
Hi where do get the black spacers so the rack sits higher? Thanks
They came with the rack 👍🏼
@@TacoManD4X4 thank you for the reply
Do you know what the weight limit is?
Do you have a link for the rack?
You can use epoxy for that extra hole if black silicone didn’t work🤓
Damnit. Now I gotta get one. 😂 just kidding. Can’t wait for what’s next.
Hahah get a Tacoma or get a roof rack? Thanks for watching man!
@@TacoManD4X4 The roof rack. Are you gonna do a lift and change wheels and tires too?
@Good4_ThePuuwai Oh yeah. I'll change all of that eventually. I'm not doing anything at the moment that would require me to rush and get the lift, wheels, and tires done so i'm waiting for my tire tread to run low. That'll give me more time to save the $8,000 its gonna cost with labor haha
Sweet. Same here. Gotta let the stock tires go down. Mods are getting pricy 😂
@@iAlwaysWinEverything dude seriously haha. Im stuck between buying "Small" things or just forcing my self to save and not buy anything until I have the lift, wheels, and tired paid for haha
how many mpg with the rack?
I have a lot more stuff done if you check out my newer videos. I’m at 10.4 right now
How bad is the wind noise at high speeds?
Not bad at all👍🏼 I don’t even notice a difference
How’s the wind noise?
I don’t notice a difference at all!👍🏼
WHO'S ORANGE TACOMA?!
That’s my father in laws Toyota Truck!
@@TacoManD4X4 it looks pretty sick!! What year?
@@rachelcullen6562 It's a 1990! I'll try and convince him to take it out next time I do a video at their house!
@@rachelcullen6562 Idk why it looks orange in the video, but it's actually red! just recently got a brand new paint job!
@@TacoManD4X4 dude! So awesome...I love older Toyota trucks, my dream is a 1983/84 😩
