Will these raise a rooftop carrier box high enough above the sharkfin satellite antenna on a 2011 4Runner?

The crown of the cross bars and the tip of the shark fin are the same height. That means if a load is put on the crossbars and that load is long enough to extend back to the shark fin, it will interfere with it.

On my 2014 with my Thule Atlantis 1600 it cleared the shark fin with the box pushed to the forward most postion. I left the bars at the recommended position. Hope that helps

Hard to say. I don't own a carrier box. The shark fin antenna is a little higher then the bars, not very much. If you put some type of clamp on the bars and then attach the carrier I think you'll be ok.

I have a 2011 4 runner and I bought the cross bars you are looking at. I have a Rola soft side carrier that is 57 inches long and it fits with no problem. I suppose if you bought one of the extra long Thule carriers, you might encounter a problem but your carrier will fit to the bars at a certain distance apart. The "extended" end will be toward the front. For sure, if you are trying to carry a long surf board or something, you will have a problem but your rear fin should be your "starting point" and simply extend your load forward. The other posters are correct in that the fin and the top of the crossbars are the same height. I have a 2011 4 runner and I bought the cross bars you are looking at.

I have 2012 4Runner with a Rhino luggage box on it and it does touch the fin since it sits fairly low. I put a foam pipe insulation piece on the fin before securing the luggage box and it works. The rack isn't that long so I also put a foam piece above the driver seats to keep the front of the box from bouncing and vibrating. The combination of using the foam on the front and back seems to work.

I mounted these myself to my car. They are practically mounted on roof already. They can not be dropped any lower. Sorry. You either need a smaller cargo box or you need to remove cargo box and only install when you really need to use it. Sorry.

I would not recommend it...I dont think it will raise your truck high enough as your body is high to begin with....I had to place 2x6 boards under the jack to lift it high enough for my Honda Element SUV.

I mounted mine on the wall above my garage with extra 2x4s behind the wall for support using the Spalding 316 U-Turn Lift System Bracket. The system "says" it can be used for a roof mount, but I'm not sure.

Hi! You will need to have the Infinity factory crossbars before you can successfully fit this cargo box to the roof. Once those are in place you will be able to mount most of our cargo carriers! Thanks.

The brackets raise the solar panels about 1/2 to 3/4" above the surface you have them attached to, which allows the water to run.these are good brackets, the other z brackets do not work as well as the renogy.

Good day, for this particular model, it attaches to naked roofs, with no existing racks or rails. We do offer the SR1009 to attach to raised factory rails. We recommend using our fit guide to determine what will work with your vehicle. Thank you and have a great day!

No, this won't give you any noticable lift. It might be a little bit higher due to being new, but it's not designed to give you any lift. The front ones that are ride height adjustable will give you anywhere from 0"-2.5", but not these rear ones. I recently put Bilstein 5100s on my 2005 4Runner, and I love them. I did the ride height adjustable ones in the front, set at 2.5", these ones in the back, and then I bought some Daystar 1.5" spacers for the rear, as well. So the front is lifted 2.5" and the rear is lifted 1.5". I love the way my rig looks now!

You need to make sure you order the right diameter of bar for the riser. I put these on a v star with minimal effort, just go slow and take your time. Some minor modification may need to be made, and you may need to drill a hole or 2 depending on your grips and boxes.

I don't thik so. I have a Ridgeline, and the rack is higher than the bed truck.

Drilling new holes shouldn't be a problem. I have my cargo box on a Rav4 with a rear roof-mounted antenna. I was able to find a combination of the pre-drilled holes and crossbar placement that had my box sitting just in front of the antenna. In that configuration though it puts the front of the cargo box out a bit over the forward crossbar, just over the top of the windshield. When you are loading items in the cargo box I'd try to keep the greatest weight in the back, over the crossbars, instead of in the nose of the box. Good luck!

I can confirm that these work on a 2011 4 Runner. Works perfectly on mine, and is really, really strong. Sometimes I have to give my wife a hand to pull the hatch down.

Yes you would, as these attach to existing roof racks only. Hope this helps!

I never installed mine but on the roof is the best and I have had success with all sorts of antennas mounted in attics. Assume all necessary pieces are there for either 300ohm or 75ohm connections providing your receiver is so equipped.

Can't answer for sure......it does have enough umph and enough lift to raise my 28' trailor off the hitch of my late model Dodge 3500 4WD pickup. Which is fairly high itself.

It can if it's used to raise your antenna. The higher you can get it, the clearer the signal it can receive. I actually added a second identical mast and stacked them, giving me another 5 feet of height. That did get me a few more channels.
