Question:
Hi, I have a Toyota Tacoma with a camper shell and Thule tracks on the roof. I am planning on putting a low profile adds 7 in of height rooftop tent on it and want to make sure it will all still fit in my garage after the fact. I am looking for the lowest profile compatible rack to mount it. Do you have the added height for this Rhino Rack as well as the Thule and Yakima racks? Thank you in advance for the help!

The total height from the bottom of the legs to the top of the crossbars on the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack for Thule and Yakima Tracks # Y01-120B-NT is 4-7/8 inches. If you account for the length of the height of the Yakima Tracks # Y01127, it adds about a 1/2 inch to the total setup. With the added track length of the Yakima tracks, you are looking at a total height of 5-3/8 inches on top of your 2020 Toyota Tacoma. The Thule Tracks # THTP42 will add about an inch to your total setup, which comes to 5-7/8 inches.
If you are looking for the shortest height on your 2020 Toyota Tacoma, I recommend the Yakima tracks.
