Video Transcript for Rhino Rack Roof Rack Installation - 2007 Volvo XC90

Today, we have a 2007 Volvo XC90 and we're going to be test fitting the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack System, part number SXB3. This rack is also available on silver and that's part number SXB3-SILV. We already have our roof rack assembled according to the instructions so now we're ready to put it up on top of our vehicle. We're going to take the front crossbar and set it up on top of our raised side rails. Since this system is designed to be used with raised side rails, there are no specific measurements that we need to set our crossbar at. We do need to make sure that the bars are overhanging evenly on both the driver and passenger's side.

We also want to make sure that the front bar runs perpendicular to our raised side rails. To do this, we'll measure from the fixed point on each of the side rails to the leading edge of our clamp and make sure its the same on both sides. Once we've done that, we'll use the included Allen wrench to tighten it all down. Then we can reinstall our caps. Next, we'll move on to the rear bar.

Again, we need to make sure that the overhang is even on both driver and passenger's side but we need to make sure that the rear bar runs parallel to the front bar. To do this, we'll measure from the center of the top slide on the front bar to the center of the top slide on the rear bar and make sure that its measurement is the same on both sides. This measurement is also known as the crossbar spread, and although we dont have to use the specific crossbar spread, we now want to check with the owner's manual of any accessories that we're going to be using to see if it requires the specific spread. Once we have the rear bar in position, we'll again tighten it down like we did in the front and reinstall our locking end caps. And with that, our rack system is installed and we're ready to start mounting accessories.

That does it for our test fit of the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack System, part number SXB3 on our 2007 Volvo XC90.

  • Will Rhino-Rack Crossbars # SXB3 Work With Rola Roof Cargo Carrier # 59504 On 2005 Pontiac Montana
  • I do have a solution to mount the Rola Roof Cargo Carrier # 59504 to your 2005 Pontiac Montana, but the item you selected, Rhino-Rack Crossbars, part # SXB3 will not work with the Rola Cargo Carrier. I would recommend the Yakima Roof Rack , part # Y00408, Y00138, which will attach to the factory side rails on your 2005 Pontiac Montana. The reason the Rhino-Rack crossbars will not work is because the Rola Cargo Carrier only works with crossbars up to 3-1/4 inches wide, the Rhino-Rack bars

  • Will a Yakima RocketBox Pro 12 Fit a Rhino-Rack SXB Roof Rack on a 2011 Volkswagen Jetta Sportwagen
  • The crossbars in the Rhino-Rack SXB Roof Rack, # SXB3, are 3-1/2 inches wide. The Yakima RocketBox Pro 12, # Y07191, uses a clamp style mounting systems and it will fit the Rhino-Rack bars. I have included a link to the installation details for the roof rack and cargo box for you.

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for a 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe with Flush Side Rails that Run Front to Back
  • It sounds like your 2012 Hyundai Santa Fe has the flush rails and not raised rails that run front to back. If this is the case, the Rhino-Rack # SXB3 system will not fit. Instead, you would need to use the Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack with Aero Crossbars, # DA1375B, and Custom DK Clamps and Pads, # DK041. The SXB3 kit that you referenced would be if the rails were raised so that there is a gap beneath them.

  • Can a Cargo Basket be Mounted Directly to Flush Roof Rails on 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe
  • I am not aware of any cargo basket that would directly attach to the flush-mounted cargo tracks on your Santa Fe. The most economical option would be a Yakima Rack System that you could construct by using Yakima load bars part # Y00409, end caps part # Y8007026 and RailGrab Towers, part # Y00138. This system would provide a platform for the cargo basket. The Rola Roof Mounted Cargo Basket, part # 59504 is our best selling roof basket, and would be a great choice for your Santa Fe. I hav

  • Will the Rhino Rack SXB Roof Rack Work on a 2005 Cadillac SRX with a Sunroof
  • As long as you have rails that run from front to back on your 2005 Cadillac SRX, and it is not a Sport model, the Rhino-Rack XB Roof Rack # SXB3 would work for you. The fact that you have a sunroof should not be an issue either as long as your sunroof does not angle up and out when it is opened. I attached a link to an installation video for this product that shows it being installed on a similar vehicle with a large sunroof as well as installation instructions for this product for you to che

  • Can 53 inch Long Rhino-Rack Aero Crossbars be Used on a 2012 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen
  • We do have a roof rack for the 2012 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen that has 56 inch bars. Take a look at the SportRack system, # A21009N. In addition to having the longest bars available out of the systems for your vehicle, it is also more economically priced. For 53 inch Rhino-Rack bars, you would use # SXB7. This system and SXB3 have a 165 pound capacity. The SportRack system has a 30 pound capacity. You are also going to want to check the capacity of the factory rails and the roof of your ve

  • Will the X Cargo Sport 20 Fit on the Rhino-Rack SXB3 Roof Rack on a 2012 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen
  • I did some research on the X Cargo Sport 20 and based on the dimensions of the cargo box, it will fit on the Rhino-Rack SXB Roof Rack, # SXB3. This cargo box uses a u bolt mounting system that will attach to most factory and aftermarket roof racks. We offer a similar cargo box which is the SportRack Explorer Cargo Box, # A90095, that is made by the same manufacturer that will fit on this roof rack and also uses the u bolt mounting kit. I have attached a review video of this cargo box for you

  • Roof Rack and Cargo Basket Recommendation for a 2010 Volvo XC90
  • The first item that you will need to start carrying a cargo basket on your 2010 Volvo XC90 is a set of crossbars. For your vehicle, I would recommend taking a look at the Rhino-Rack SXB Roof Rack, # SXB3. This roof rack includes 2 aerodynamic crossbars that reduce drag and cut down on wind noise better than square crossbars. This roof rack is also very easy to install. You simply place the clamps on your side rails and tighten them down using the provided tool. This roof rack also has a buil

  • Compatibility of Yamima FrontLoader With Rhino Rack SXB Crossbars on 2012 VW Jetta Sportwagen
  • The Rhino Rack Crossbars measure 3-1/2 inches wide by 1-1/2 inches tall. Yakima tells me that their FrontLoader roof mounted bike rack will accommodate a crossbar with those dimensions. You will also need to make sure that there is at least 1-1/2 inches of clearance under the crossbar in order for the attachment hardware of the FrontLoader to clear the roof of your Jetta SportWagen. I have linked you to the instructions for the FrontLoader Bike Rack as well as an install video and instruct

  • Will the Thule Criterium Roof Mount Bike Rack Fit Rhino-Rack Aero Crossbars
  • You can use the Thule Criterium bike rack # TH598 with Rhino-Rack roof rack # SXB3 but you will need to use an adpater, # Xadapt8, which will allow you to install the rack using the channels that are in the crossbars. I have included a link to the instructions and a video for the bike rack for you.

  • Will a X Cargo 20 Cargo Box Fit on a 2012 Ford Expedition
  • The X Cargo Thule Box is designed to be used on most factory and aftermarket cross bars. The u-bolt that comes with the X-cargo is 4 inches wide so it should fit around a wide variety of cross bars. If you do not have a roof rack with cross bars that run from one side to the other you will need to check out the link I attached that will take you to the Thule roof racks that are available for your vehicle.

  • Roof Rack for a 2013 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen with Panoramic Sun Roof
  • The Rhino-Rack roof rack # SXB3 does fit the 2013 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen as long as it has factory side rails that run front to back. I do not recommend opening the panoramic sun roof as there could be interference. It may be possible to move the bars to places along the rails that will allow you to open it but you will need to determine that with the bars on the actual vehicle. We have installed this system on a 2010, see video link, but not on a 2013 so we have not determined clearanc

Product arrived on time and in good condition. Installation was pretty easy. Only tricky part is centering the cross bars. You have to tighten one side, then the other and keep going back and forth. Otherwise the bar will shift to one side. 53371

These racks are rock solid and do not interfere with the operation of the sun roof of my Jetta Sport Wagon. Very good quality. Should easily handle three 70 pound hang gliders after I build my front rack. Delivery was free and faster than originally stated. Also the web site is user friendly. Overall I would buy from this site again - one of the better on line retail sites.50489

I ordered a Rhino Rack system and received and installed it two days later. I've attached pix of the bars on a 2001 Mercedes E320 Wagon. The finish, fit, and installation ease are all major sources of my being highly pleased.25791
