Today on our 2016 Nissan Versa Note we're are doing a test fit of the Rhino Rack Vortex Aero crossbars. Now the part number for our cross bars here is RRVA1180B-2. For our foot pack we have RRRLKVA and for our fit kit for the Note we have DK 382. Now we already have that front crossbar in place we're going to show you how we put this last foot pack together here and how we put this crossbar on to our vehicle. I've gone ahead and positioned our clamp on here and tightened it down using our bolt, I'll just unscrew that tighten that down just a bit keep that clamp in place. We are going to start by removing our plastic foot here and we are going to take our pad and we're just going to insert that in, its going to face forward now that arrow there but once we get it on to our vehicle its actually going to face backwards Then we'll take our entire foot pack here and we're just going to use this piece and slide it into place. Now that loose on there you will need to provide a flat tape measure or any kind of tape measure that you may have.
We're going to have 15.6 centimeters. Hold that in place and we will tighten down this bolt here in the center. With that tightened down we're ready to put our crossbar on to our vehicle, let's start by opening our doors here. What we will do is gently and loosely place are crossbar down. Make sure that that foot pack is sitting in the right spot you may have to readjust and make sure that bolt sits in the right spot and it's loose enough.
Now we'll measure our crossbar spread. We're going to have 74 centimeters between the front middle portion of our foot pack to the back middle portion of our back foot pack. With this one measure out we will do the same to the front or to the opposite side rather. All right we have those in place, we are going to take our Rhino Rack tool and start to tighten our clamps down. I like to start by tightening it so that it sits all the way up against my door jamb here without me having to hold it up there. Do the same here on the opposite side just enough so that it sits in the right spot.
Then we'll go back and forth tightening it down doing about five to ten turns on each side. Now you'll know when it's tight enough when our skinny portion of our tort tool is completely straight so keep that in mind. As you can see here it's already straightening out so I'll just do the same thing to our other side. Now we can place on our locking covers here, secure that in place and then we can take our crossbar end caps set those on and we also have a lock for those as well. If you have any T track or T chain mounted accessories like bike racks can secure those in place and not have to worry about theft or tampering. That's going to be our completed look at the Rhino Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars and how they fit on a 2016 Nissan Versa Note. .

You aren't the only ones who have just jumped in without reading first. That's basically a way of life for me, too. Ready, fire, aim, haha! So glad you got it done and now have that much more room for storage! Where will you be headed in July??

Man, looks like a lot of fun having a kayak! I see lots of gear aboard - do you use it for fishing?

The racks are still working well, a year later. Ive used them to haul small loads of lumber and other items from the local big box hardware store.

The rack works fine. I reach up and check it now and then and I have never had to tighten it after the initial installation. Completely satisfied.

Used about 2 times a month. Very secure and easy to installremove. Only complaint is the rear mounting clamps should have been designed longer to allow more adjustment due to sloping rear window.

Still rock solid after one year. Very happy with the Rack. My daughter has put things on it from time to time over the past year that wouldnt fit in her car.

Neither Rhino-Rack nor etrailer.com have tested the roof rack on a 5500 ChassisCab, which is why we couldnt confirm the fit.

It’s now been a year and I have used my racks several times. They are easy to put on and take off and I’ve had no problems. My only complaint is the rubber along the top of the rack keeps cramming down into the slot.

Its been a year and Ive been transporting multiple canoes on top of my car. It has been great! The biggest risk with the boats on a small car is when its windy that it would rock the car and the crossbars. The crossbars have movedslipped a little bit, but its still super sturdy. Great product.

Glad we could deliver the right fit for you Ellen! What body of water do you like to take your canoe out on? If you are feeling really adventuress, we have the MR340 here in Missouri. It is a 340 mile paddle from Kansas City, MO to ST Charles every summer.
