Transform your Toyota Land Cruiser 79 Series into the toughest ute on the block with the Wedgetail rack. The Wedgetail rack is a new generation roof rack combining the aesthetics and functionality of the new generation composite style assembled rack with the traditional strength and proven identity of an Australian manufacturer.

Wedgetail roof racks integrate the all-new Wedge lock glass-reinforced corners that significantly increase the strength of this design, allowing us to offer you a full offroad rating regardless of what road you travel. All Wedgetail racks are manufactured here in Melbourne and Sydney Australia by longstanding industry veteran, Tradesman Roof Racks.

The Wedgetail roof rack designed for the Toyota Land Cruiser 79 Series is installed using a small bracket that is riveted to the canopy roof with high-strength stainless sealed rivets and sealed to the roof using a suitable natural cure silicon. Once installed, the Wedge-wing one-piece mounting kit is attached, connecting to the Wedgetail platform.

The benefits of this mounting system extend beyond increased load rating and enhanced aesthetics, it also facilitates easy removal. The Wedgetail can be completely detached from the vehicle by undoing four bolts, leaving only the four small brackets securely sealed to the roof.

How do Accessories Attach?

The Wedgetail platform features robust crossbars that run to the left and right sides of the vehicle. These crossbars include a heavy-duty channel on both the top and bottom enabling any Wedgetail accessories to be quickly locked in or out. Additionally, this design allows for easy fitting of a wide range of alternative accessories onto the Wedgetail rack when required.

What about Wind Noise?

All Wedgetail racks come standard with a wind deflector to minimise wind noise as much as possible. As well as this Wedgetail racks also include our unique Wedge-flow crossbar design which is the culmination of years of design experience in minimising wind noise.

The Wedgetail rack to suit the Toyota Land Cruiser 79 Series is no different as Wedgetail understand how frustrating a noisy roof rack can be and have put every effort into ensuring that the Wedgetail rack is as quiet as it can be.

What is the Weight Rating?

One thing you can be sure about with a Wedgetail rack is that no matter what road you are on in this country their full load rating will apply. Wedgetail racks do not need to be de-rated in offroad conditions due to the design and construction methods used, including their Wedge-lock corners.

The load rating for the Wedgetail rack fitted to a Toyota Land Cruiser 79 Series is 100 kg. However, it is crucial to be aware of your canopy's roof load rating, information that can be obtained from Toyota. Subtracting the 20kg weight of the Wedgetail platform from your roof rating provides the legal carrying capacity.
