A+ all around

"Ordered my Drifter on a Sunday and arrived in 5 days which is incredible. Everything was packaged nicely. Install took about 3 hours and I took my time. YouTube video was very helpful. I ran into a snag (my fault for not watching the update video) and called Backwoods. I spoke to a rep immediately and he clarified the steps and parts I had questions on. Great customer service. Rack turned out perfectly. Solid and very little wind noise. I also purchased the deck panels to completely cover the roof rack and turned out amazing. A lot of lawn chair sitting on top of the 4Runner in my future. Highly recommend Backwoods, the drifter rack and deck panels!"

"• The Driftr roof rack from Backwoods is highly recommended due to its exceptional build quality, featuring robust crossbars and a sturdy backbone. • It includes all necessary components for installation, which typically requires approximately two hours. I eagerly anticipate acquiring their rock sliders as well. I am somewhat disappointed that the item is currently on backorder, a detail I overlooked at the time of purchase due to my enthusiasm."

Rock-Solid Rack

"Shopped around and found you can spend a lot more, but the Drifter might be the best value out there. Love the no-drill install on my 5th Gen 4Runner… clear and concise install vid helped me get her up and ready to rock in a couple hours. A rock-solid, functional design that also has a serious cool factor."

Backwoods delivers again, rock-solid roof rack!

"I recently upgraded to the Backwoods roof rack for my 4Runner and couldn’t be happier. The install was super easy, Backwoods has a clear YouTube video that walks you through everything step by step, making it super easy to follow. One of my favorite features is the extra clearance it provides above the roofline. That extra space made it so much easier to mount my rooftop tent compared to my old rack. I didn’t have to fight tight gaps or scratch up the roof. It also allowed for better airflow and made bolting in my GOFSR tent feel less like a workout. It’s noticeably more lightweight than my previous rack (which eventually failed), but still feels incredibly solid. I've tested it at high speeds and rough terrain, no wind noise, no rattling. I love that it looks clean and aggressive without being bulky. And bonus points for compatibility with my Rago panels! If you're looking for a rack that performs, installs easily, and holds up on the trails, this one’s a no-brainer."

Shipping is Terrible and Customer Services is Mid

"Build is good some spots on the metal arent powder coated and shipping is a nightmare. Backwoods sent all the right parts expect the ones that mattered. The package came with brackets not for the DRFTR roof rack. It’s taking an extra week and a half after getting the package to be able to finally install the roof rack just because they put the wrong brackets inside the packaging. Tried calling no answer and takes the team 3 business days to get a reply via email. Even after recovering an email from them."

Looks great. . . but troubles with install!

"Overall, the rack looks great installed on tmy 4runner and is one of my favorite designs of all the ones currently on the market. The parts came well packaged and proteceted for shipment. There were zero instructions included for the installation, but I had previously seen the YouTube video and could follow along with that. I am also glad I had stumbled on the update to the installation video talking about the new front bracket design or I might have wondered where my rubber feet and brackets were. I do have some issues with the cut plate parts, but I am not sure if the issue is with the way the materials were cut or in the powdercoating. The edges of the openings look very rough. I also had issues with the extrusions and trying to get the bolts started in them. Out of all the extrusions, only 3 holes could have the 1/4-20 bolts finger tightened all the way in. The remainder of the bolts could only get about one to one-and-a-half turns before stopping which worried me that they were either cross-threading or the threads were gummed up with the powdercoating. I prayed for the best and ran the bolts in until tight without anything stripping. As I mentioned, overall the rack looks great! Some attention to the minor things I just mentioned would make the installation experience much better."

This rack is sick!

"I could not be happier with having the Driftr."

4Runner roof rack

"Excellent appearance, quality and service team, I just got it, and installations were so easy with just an extra hand to mount the extrusions, as it was shown in the installation video, everything square by itself with very minor adjustments. I'm very happy with this product!"

— Ismael P. (5/5)

overall awesome product and company
