*** Please Note: Heavy duty hatch struts are not required for the base ladder by itself. HD struts will be needed if any accessories are added to the ladder. Recommended hatch struts CLICK HERE The 4Runner Summit Hatch Ladder is a rear hatch-mounted access ladder designed for the 6th Gen Toyota 4Runner. It provides a stable, lightweight solution for accessing roof-mounted gear while minimizing added weight on the hatch. The ladder steps are constructed from extruded aluminum T-slot profiles, offering high strength-to-weight performance and integrated functionality. Slotted holes along the side rails provide mounting points for compatible accessories. Rubber tread strips are included to improve traction, particularly in wet or dusty conditions. The ladder assembly uses heavy-duty steel mounting brackets for structural support and stainless steel hardware for corrosion resistance. All visible components are finished in a Hammer Black powder coat. The ladder is rated for a 250lb static load and a 20lb dynamic load. Installation requires drilling into the hatch for a secure, fixed mount. Optional accessories include bolt-on steel side steps for increased footing and a steel Rotopax mounting bracket for carrying auxiliary fuel or water containers. This ladder is intended for functional roof access and modular expansion rather than cosmetic use.
