Strong and easy set up. Pace Edwards Ultra Trac cover will NOT accept this system even though rhino-rack claims it will. Only if you modify the plates that slide into the track. They’re too wide. I swapped mine out for this to fit my roll top.

Aside from the initial setup this rack has been fantastic. It carries two large mountain bikes with Thule bike racks that slide into the channel. Carries bikes perfectly. Strong system.



by:

Crossbars look great on my Lightning and work with my accessories.

I installed this on a Retrax Pro XR tonneau cover mounted to a 2020 Ford Ranger. My intention is to use this rack for a rooftop tent and for more options to haul things above the rack. I considered the Yakima Outpost system, but chose the Rhino-Rack due to the lower height and much lower cost. I also liked the option to easily remove the bars when not in use.

Installation would have been very easy except that one of the Retrax track slots seemed to be a little smaller than the other. The square mounting plates that slide into the track slot would only go so far before getting stuck. I ended up having to use a Dremmel tool to grind down the edges of the mounting plates to get them to fit into the track.

When opening the Retrax cover, I found the handle will not clear the bottom of the rack when fully open - had to push it down a little to clear the rack. No big deal, just be aware.

Overall very pleased with the rack. It looks good, easy to remove when I don't need it, and should suit my needs.



by:

Awesome addition to our truck and allows us to take our camping stuff so much more efficiently!



by:

Just completed my installation of the Rhino Rack on my 2018 Chevy Colorado. I have been researching for a railing system for a about a year and decided to go with
etrailer.. I have purchased a couple of items prior and was very pleased.

I called Crystal who was very knowledgeable with the product and decided to move forward with my purchase.

Thank you for help

by:

Well built. I have had Yakima in the past, but the price point for the Rhinos was so good vs. Yakima that I had to spring for them. Impressed with the build quality. Easy to install, perfect fit on the 24 F150. They fit right over my Etrax XD, and I do not lose any function for the Etrax at all.



by:

Perfect fit on 2024 F150. 65 inch crossbars were the right fit on Retrax XR cover.



by:

Works very well with my Retrax bed cove r!



by:

Fit my F150 Lightning perfectly (on the RetraxPro XR). Went with the 65” bar so to avoid the larger overhang with the 71” bar. Very pleased with rhino rack - solid design, easy to install, and a great value. Added 15mm spacers to ensure clearance of the tonneau latch mechanism under the cross bar. Paired with 1up bike racks.



by:

Easy install, works perfectly on my Retrax cover on the F150.



by:

Great product and great support by etrailer. I use the Rhino-Rack crossbar system with a Rockymounts bike mount on my 2021 Ford Ranger. Rock solid and it looks very nice



by:

You guys did greats getting it to me. Couple of things are the mounting hardware got rusted out just after a few days. So I have to remove rack and hardware when not in use (can’t just cap the feet) or else it rust more and leaves rust stains on my track system. Other then that racks them selves work great.



by:

We have had these on our service truck for two years. They have been great.



by:

When I upgraded my pickup and added a Retrax tonneau cover I needed to change out my rack system for hauling bicycles and kayaks. The Rhino Rack system was noticeably cheaper than anything Yakima had so I gave it a try. It attaches easily and looks like it will work well.



by:

Love the Rhino Rack Crossbars! Easy to install and remove. Thank you again Etrailer!



by:

Love the crossbars. Super easy to install and work great.



by:

Reliable, well made, has held up well in AZ and now in CO. I don’t leave them on the truck every day, they live in the garage until they are needed. When we moved I carried three bikes on them from Arizona to Colorado without an issue. Quiet, no rattle, easy to assemble and secure.



by:

Staff was friendly, informative. They got my order delivered on time. Will definitely consider etrailer for all my truck needs!



by:

There was no instructions in the box but nothing a few [online] videos couldn't solve. I am happy with the product, but not happy with the way it was shipped.



by:

Got those installed and they look good



by:

This rhino rack definitely looked repackaged from what I’m to only guess was a careless return. I haven’t even used the product and during install it was apparent from the visable scratches and missing “vortex rubber strips.” I hope etrailer can make right by this shortcoming.

  • What Ladder Rack, Tonneau Cover, and Kayak Carrier do You Recommend for My 2017 Ford F-150?

You will be able load kayaks up to those weight capacities. For a great kayak carrier that is compatible with the OverHaul HD, I recommend the Rhino-Rack J-Style Kayak Carrier...

  • Will the Rhino-Rack RLTP Legs Fit on My Retrax XR Cover on My 2018 Ford F-150?
    I have a great solution for a rack that works with the rails on your Retrax XR tonneau cover on your 2018 Ford F-150. Unfortunately, the Track Mount RLTP Legs for Rhino-Rack RTC- and RT-Style Roof Rack Tracks - 2" Tall # RLTP-2 will not fit the Retrax XR rails. However, Rhino-Rack does make legs that are designed to fit the Retrax XR rails. Those are the Rhino-Rack Quick Mount Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - RTC and RT Roof Rack Tracks # RRRLT600. Sadly, with these legs, you will not...

  • Recommended Crossbars for a Roll-N-Lock M-series XT Tonneau Cover
    Yes, it is! I took a look at the Roll-N-Lock M-Series XT cover that fits your 2021 Chevy Colorado. Since it has the integrated T-Slot rails you can install the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbars item # RRVA165B-RRRLT600 you were looking at. These have a 220 lbs capacity. For a bike rack you can use the Rhino-Rack Hybrid Roof Bike Rack item # RRRBC050. This is a wheel mounted bike rack that has a 45 lbs capacity. It fits bikes with 20" - 29" wheels and is our highest capacity bike rack that mounts...

  • Can 59 Inch Rhino-Rack Vortex Bars be Used for Retrax Cover on 2018 Toyota Tacoma
    The Rhino-Rack Roof Rack for Factory Tracks Kit # Y02-490B-NT will use the 59" Vortex crossbars and RLT600 leg kit which is the same as the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series and Mountain Top EVO-M Tonneau Covers # RRVA165B-RRRLT600 with the 65" crossbars. As long as the T-Slot on the XR rails for your 2018 Toyota Tacoma are under that 59" measurement you should be just fine.

  • Is Weight Capacity of Rhino-Rack Crossbars for Retrax XR Tonneau Cover Per Bar or Total
    Good question, and the answer is that the weight capacity is the total capacity. So the capacity of the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series and Mountain Top EVO-M Tonneau Covers # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 is 220 lbs maximum across both bars (think of it as 110 lbs per bar). These are 71 inch bars and there are also 65 inch bars with the same capacity, which are part # RRVA165B-RRRLT600. I have added a link to a video review and the instructions for you to check out as well.

  • Do Rhino-Rack Crossbars Fit RetraxPRO XR Tonneau Cover & Come With Mounting Hardware
    Hi Joe, Thanks for the question, and the answer to both is yes. The Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbars for Retrax XR and Mountain Top EVO-M Tonneau Covers # RRVA165B-RRRLT600 will fit the RetraxPRO XR tonneau cover for your truck, and the crossbars also come with the hardware needed to install in the T-slots on the cover.

  • Will Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbars Fit BAK Revolver X4ts Hard Tonneau Cover on 2026 GMC Sierra 2500
    Hi Sam; the Rhino-Rack # RRVA165B-RRRLT600 would fit the rails but it doesn't have the clearance for the cover to roll up underneath. However, the Yakima OverHaul HD # Y01151-5855 will work with the BAK Revolver X4ts. The rack is adjustable from 19" to 30" giving you plenty of clearance for the tonneau cover and different height options for different applications. The Yakima OutPost HD # Y01152-5855 is another option with an upright height of 13". It doesn't look like we have the X4ts...

  • What Elevate Rack System can I Use with My MX4 Trifold Tonneau Cover on 2014 Silverado 1500?
    Hello Hyunsup, Happy to get you the right set-up. If you have the 6 1/2' bed you will need the TS Rails for TruXedo Elevate Rack System - Full Size - Short Bed - 72" - Aluminum # TH65FR will work great, but if you have the 5 1/2' bed you will need # TH75FR. Then you can pair it with the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbars for Retrax XR and Mountain Top EVO-M Tonneau Covers - Black - 65" L # RRVA165B-RRRLT600. What are you looking to use the rack for?

  • Picking Between 65 and 71 inch Rhino Rack Crossbar Setup for Retrax XR Tonneau
    What I would do is go out to your truck and measure out 71 inches and 65 inches on a tape measure and compare that to the width of your bed. If you think the 71 inch looks better and would suit your needs then that's what you would want to go with part # RRVA180B-RRRLT600. If instead you'd prefer the 65 inch you'd want the part # RRVA165B-RRRLT600. As long as neither extends out past your mirrors you'd be safe to use either.
