Sherpa Equipment Company kindly gave us a Belford roof rack to try out on our 1st gen Toyota Sequoia and now we've had several months to evaluate it and make a long term review of it. We will be answering the question "should you buy a rack from Sherpa?" and also make a comparision to Gobi racks, which is the only other significant competitor when it comes to 1st gen toyota sequoias. Overrall, we have loved using this rack on our Toyota Sequoia overland rig.

Anyone else own a Sherpa roof rack? Let us know what you think of it!

@nathanielkornegay8489 3 года назад

Just installed it on my Sequoia this weekend and I love the way it looks! Can't wait to try it out later this year.

@Quebechalifax 2 года назад

I bought one a year and half ago and still solide. Got a ARB roof top tent and lights on top. I’m 225 lbs and I can walk on it no problem best rack on the market by far. Only problem the screws are start to rust but not a big deal for me it’s a roof rack after all not a piano.

@tcjha6250 2 года назад

Jim Do you have any pix of your roof rack with lights? Iam thinking to install lights at the top but not sure how it’ll look. Still have to order my roof rack. Thanks

@onemansthought 2 года назад

Got one and love it!

@sherpaec 3 года назад

Appreciate the feedback, Dillon. We hope you and Laiken continue to enjoy the rack and take it on many more awesome adventures!

@xavior718 3 года назад

@Sherpa Equipment Co. do you have any plans on making a ladder to go along with the rack for the 1st Gen Sequoias?

@jakeallen2453 2 года назад

a ladder would be awesome after installing a lift and bigger tires

@punktexas 2 года назад

I wish y'all made a rack for the Jeep Cherokee KL. I've been waiting 6 months for my GOBI rack. I spoke with them yesterday.....they said 2 more months.

@morfdq Год назад

I own a Sherpa Crestone. The build quality is above all by far the best there is. When you're done you feel like there is a tank up there. They also make installation easy - all the bolts are the same size you dont need to sort tons of different size bolts. They have an installation video that makes it so simple. I did mine in about 1.5 hours but thats mostly because i had to go up and down the ladder, if i had a platform i bet I could have got it done in 45 minutes.

@brpnw4r94 2 года назад

Love my Crestone from Sherpa Equipment on my '20 4runner. No issues whatsoever with the rack so far. The mounting "feet" are what sold me. Solid, solid rack

@mattgonzalez5888 3 года назад

Great video. This is the kind of content that sets you apart. I’ve been looking at racks for my rig, looks like Sherpa is the way to go.

@EliteNK 3 года назад

That lead time and price difference are astounding, definitely know which one I would get.

@kateandjosh 2 года назад

Well executed, thorough and realistic review! I agree with you. Another huge factor for me was that it won’t ever rust because it’s aluminum. I’ve got one of their racks for my 2003 4Runner and it’s great!

@Unit4321 2 года назад

I just ordered one including the light bar i had it on my GX470 and I loved it so I was happy they had it for 1st gen sequoia as well.

@max7143 2 года назад

Just Ordered. Expensive little thing, $1,365 shipped. 🤑😳 Thank you for the review of their product.

@DavidHain-TX 3 года назад

@universalrebel503 2 месяца назад

There's also the spider roof rack...it's no drill....looks kinda sketch but the tundra guys say they work

@dongyo69 3 года назад

A well made decision to record on a s5. This quality is amazing. Keep it up.

@TheFraziers 3 года назад

Yes we do. Best hybrid camera on the market right now if the A7Siii is out of your price range.

@sgtgreen0331 2 года назад

I just received my rack on Saturday. The more research I did, I love the fact that Sherpa doesn’t require drilling or silicone sealant. I looked briefly into Ghobi, the 9 month lead time seemed excessive and I wasn’t much of a fan of the style.

@TheFraziers 2 года назад

Good choice! Thanks for watching!

@rogerhart1835 Год назад

I'm waiting for the Grand Teton by Sherpa for my 2023 Tacoma.

@Galaxy2191 3 года назад

Great review! Also been thinking about putting an aftermarket rack on my 2001 sequoia and your vid was definitely timely.. considering the Sherpa now thx! I was wondering if there were any measures to prevent theft since it’s still kinda pricey..

@TheFraziers 3 года назад

There’s not anything like a lock or key. The only theft prevention is the fact that tools, time, and a little bit of prior knowledge would be required to take it.

@KettlesVids 3 года назад

Picked up a 1st Gen recently and definitely need one of these Sherpa racks. Thanks for the great info on it!

@xavior718 3 года назад

I wish they made ladders for the 1st Gen Sequoias also. I ordered a Gobi ladder since November 2020 and still waiting. I called Gobi in April and they said mid May it’ll be sent out. Nope. Waited til June to call and they said mid July. Let’s see when I call again.

@TheFraziers 3 года назад

Can you cancel your order? I feel like you’d still get a rack faster from Sherpa at this rate

@xavior718 3 года назад

@@TheFraziers it’s only a Gobi ladder I ordered.

@TheFraziers 3 года назад

@@xavior718 ah I understand. I hope you receive it soon. The ladders are pretty sick.

@jbdlr13 3 года назад

I ordered the gobi ladder as well for my FJ last year and probably waited for like 5-6months.

@Russelluprocks Год назад

Victory 4x4 also makes a rack.

@HarryEffieAnna 3 года назад

Hey! Love the channel - what is the max size tire you can fit under the Sequioa? I noticed you do not have an exterior tire carrier. Thanks

@TheFraziers 3 года назад

We’ve got a 255/75/17 as a spare under there and I bet that’s the biggest diameter (roughly 32) that will fit. Maybe if you removed the tow bar you could fit something bigger but not sure.

@Ahhhhhhhhhhhh- 25 дней назад

How many of those solar panels could you theoretically fit on that rack? Four 100W panels?

@TheFraziers 24 дня назад

@@Ahhhhhhhhhhhh- I think 4 is likely the limit 👍

What year is your sequoia.?

@jamesm9560 3 года назад

How could they leave a block in front of the sunroof?? It model specific...

@TheFraziers 3 года назад

It’s because of where the original mounting location on the roof is.

@trgarcia0311 3 года назад

I think they changed it? Go to Nathaniel Wise’s channel and he just released a review last week on his. He can climb up to his roof through the sun roof and at the 5:30 mark, he shows a top view of it.

@houstonthomas7232 2 года назад

How much taller is the Sherpa from the factory sequoia roof rack?

@TheFraziers 2 года назад

Not sure exactly but the Sherpa rack is definitely quite low profile. Maybe only an inch or two taller

@houstonthomas7232 2 года назад

@@TheFraziersIs there anyway to measure the Sherpa you have and then I could compare to my stock rack

@Fozzi1-1836 8 месяцев назад

28 weeks. Not acceptable. You pay huge bucks to have to wait such a long time. Im seriously shopping racks and Sherpa and Wesscott are both in the running. Waiting on a company that’s gotten my money is not ideal.

@TheFraziers 8 месяцев назад

Yah Sherpa is much more reasonable.

How about spider roof racks

@bajasoobnut 3 года назад

Iirc prinu is another brand

@TheFraziers 3 года назад

I don’t believe they offer a rack for the sequoia unless I’m incorrect

@melortega6228 3 года назад

Never heard of Prinu!,but I’ve heard of Prinsu?

@michellej7734 3 года назад

Getting it for FREE or PAYING for it is the SAME THING, especially tax wise. Of course you are looking past ISSUES and not surprised you LIKE it YOU GOT IT FOR FREE. You will REGRET not sealing with silicone.

@TheFraziers 3 года назад

I reviewed the product within the context of its normal retail price. It’s obvious that I’ll be inclined to like a product because it was free but just because something is free doesn’t mean it’s good. That’s also why I made a comparison against a competing brand offering a similar product at a different price. If you don’t trust our opinion then feel free to not watch. We’re not offended at all.
