Just received these Rhino Rack cross bars today and installed them on the t-tracks on a RetraxPro XR tonneau on a 2020 F-250. The cross-rail system seems to be well designed and built. Rugged but not too heavy. The way the track leg body connects to the track leg base makes it easy to assemble and easy to attach or remove the crossbars, once they are set-up. Directions were good and the parts for the bases were well packaged. The crossbars themselves were shipped without any additional box or wrapping (i.e. just in the retail box) and both ends of the boxes had come open in shipment, so the vertex bars were falling out. One of the bars was a little scratched up, but not badly, and luckily the additional loose parts are packaged inside the vertex bars. So no issues there. The system seems quite nice, looks good, and I can't wait to try both the bike carriers and the kayak carries I purchased to use with these bars. I will update the review once I've used them some. 745752

Perfect match for the Retrax Pro XR tonneau cover. I particularly like how these detach in seconds for full truck bed access or going through a car wash. The cross bar & bike rack assembly can hang vertically on a garage hook to be out of the way when not needed. They click back in place in seconds are are fully secure when properly latched. 735174

There is only one reason why I didn't give this 5 stars. Everything came as expected and the shipping was fast than they had anticipated. So that was awesome. There was only one thing that I had any kind of problem with and it was the pieces that go into the T track on my bed cover. They were a little to wide and I had to grind all of them down to make them fit properly. Honestly that wasn't a very big deal for myself but, I can imagine that not everyone has the proper tools to make it work. Other than that I love the cross bars. Very easy to install. 830920

Received the full Rhino Rack kit with Vortex Bars to go over my F150 crew cab short bed with Retrax Pro XR retractable Tonneau cover. Took about 20' to install and have the full kit working first time out of the box. Great service delivery, everything included in one shipment! The 71" bar size gave 3.75" on either side of the towers and still kept the end of the rails within the overall edges of the truck line. Thanks guys! 817283

Recieved the product in 2 days. Instructions were accurate and clear. Product was well built and fit my ReTrax ProXR tonneau cover as prescribed in ad ons. Installed and compliments the look of my 2019 F-150. Never had a cargo system that fit above the tonneau cover so this was a first. Couldn't be happier with the look. 714154

- What Size Crossbars Do I Need To Use with the PowertraxONE XR on a 2018 Ford F-150The correct size crossbar to use on the bed of your 2018 Ford F-150 with the PowertraxONE XR Hard Tonneau Cover w/ Trax Rails part # RTT-70373 is 71" which means the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series Tonneau Covers part # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 is what you will need to use. The 65" long crossbar in the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series Tonneau Covers part # RRVA165B-RRRLT600 is designed for mid-size trucks like a Tacoma, Ranger, or Colorado.

- Thule, Yakima, and Rhino Rack Ladder Racks to Fit Retrax XR Tonneau of 2018 GMC Sierra 2500For a full sized truck like your 2018 GMC Sierra 2500 short bed that has the RetraxOne XR tonneau part # RTT-80462 the Rhino Rack load bar setup part number # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 would be a great fit and matches what you are looking for. I attached a picture of this rack installed on a truck bed like yours and we found that didn't overhang past the bed rails. These bars are 71 inches long as well. If you'd prefer something a little shorter the Overhaul HD part # Y01151-58 with the adapter...

- Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series Tonneau Cover on 2019 Toyota TundraThe RetraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover that fits the 2019 Toyota Tundra 5-1/2-foot bed with the deck rail system is part # RTT-80841 and this cover can be fitted with 65-inch Rhino-Rack crossbars. Order # RRVA165B-RRRLT600. Install instructions are linked for you.
view full answer... - Mid Height Ladder Rack Recommendation for Retrax XR Tonneau Cover RailsI have a better option for you to consider, but there isn't a way to use taller Rhino Rack feet with the rack you mentioned so you'd be best off with the Yakima OutPost HD part # Y01152-5855 which is a mid-height rack that fits the same Retrax XR tonneau cover rails. The upright height of this is 13 inches above the truck bed rails.
view full answer... - What Is the Correct Rhino-Rack System For a Toyota Tacoma with Retrax XR Series Tonneau CoverThe correct Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series Tonneau Covers that you will want to use on a mid-size truck like your Toyota Tacoma is part # RRVA165B-RRRLT600 which has 65" long crossbars. The part # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 which has 71" long crossbars will be used on full-size trucks like a Toyota Tundra.
view full answer... - Do the Locks Come with the Rhino-Rack System for Retrax Tonneau Covers?The Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series Tonneau Covers # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 does come with the integrated locks you see. Rhino-Rack is one of the bigger brand names that still offers the locks with their products versus requiring a separate purchase. There is one upgrade that is an additional cost and it is if you want the metal locks for the end of the crossbars. If you desire that feature you can use # RRVA-LEC4. This further secures any track mounted carriers...
view full answer... - Recommended Crossbar Length for Rhino-Rack Vortex Rack for Retrax Pro XR series Tonneau CoverAccording to Rhino Rack, if you were to go with the shorter bars, you'll only have 1-1/4 inch of leeway on each side which isn't enough in their opinion. I'd recommend going with the 71 inch bars so you'll be certain of a good fit. As you can see in the provided photo showing the rack installed on a Ram truck, the overhang on either side fits the proportions of the truck and won't protrude past the widest part of the truck bed so you really won't need to be concerned about it looking weird.

- Is Yakima FrontLoader Bike Rack Compatible with Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero CrossbarsYes, the Yakima FrontLoader # Y02103 is compatible with the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series Tonneau Covers # RRVA180B-RRRLT600. The Rhino-Rack crossbars come with a plastic lock core but you can upgrade them to metal with part # RRVA-LEC4, and then the FrontLoader comes with a lock for the bike so if you'd like to add a lock for the rack as well you can either wait to see what lock core number comes with the bike lock or you can go ahead and order kit # Y07202...
view full answer... - Will Weight Capacity Increase with 4 Bars for the Rhino-Rack System on Retrax XR Series CoverThe weight capacity for the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series Tonneau Covers # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 would remain the same at 220 lbs for this system even if you were to add another pair of crossbars to this setup. If you were wanting to have a higher weight capacity then I recommend using a Yakima ladder rack system that is designed to mount to the XR series tonneau covers. For that the have the OutPost HD # Y01152-5855 which is a lower profile option that sits about...
view full answer... - Can A Roof Rack Be Used On Both a Retrax XR Tonneau Cover and a 2017 Ford F-250It sounds like you have a Retrax XR Series Tonneau Cover on a 2017 Ford F-250 and what to transfer a roof rack back and forth from the cab to the bed. If that is the case then you will want to use the Yakima CoreBar Crossbar System part # Y00423-482104 instead of the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System part # RRVA180B-RRRLT600. The reason for this is that the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbars have slots underneath which the mounting feet attach to and these slots do not go in far enough to accommodate...
view full answer... - Will Roof Bike Rack Work With Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series TonneauYes, the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System part # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 which is for Retrax XR Series Tonneau Covers will allow you to use pretty much any roof mounted accessory such as the Swagman Upright Roof Bike Carrier part # S64720. The aero crossbars are a very standard size so you should not have issues using any rooftop mounted accessories.
view full answer... - Recommend Crossbars For Pace Edwards UltraGroove Tonneau Cover On a Ford F-150You are correct, a 60" crossbar would be too short to span the width of your 2018 Ford F-150. I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System part # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 which comes with 71" long crossbars and will work with both the Retrax XR Series Tonneau Covers as well as the Pace Edwards UltraGroove Tonneau Covers. This is one of the most cost effective all-in-one kits we offer for the track systems on either of the above tonneau covers. Please note, for Pace Edwards Tonneau Covers...
view full answer... - Best Rack for the Retrax XR Series Tonneau Cover on a 2019 Ford F-250Yes, the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series Tonneau Covers part # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 will absolutely work with the RetraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover w/ Trax Rails on your 2019 Ford F-250. It is actually designed specifically for this. The 71" long crossbar will be just what you need. I called my contact at Retrax to confirm.
view full answer... - Will the RockyMounts TomaHawk Work with the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar SystemYes, you can use a different brand of bike rack like the RockyMounts TomaHawk Roof Bike Rack part # RKY1222 or the Thule SideArm 594XT with the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System. The reason for this is because the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System uses a standard 3-1/8" wide x 1-3/16" tall crossbar that will be compatible with pretty much any rooftop accessory that works with aero crossbars whether that be from Yakima, Rola, or in this case RockyMounts and Thule. The only disadvantage of...
view full answer... - Is Weight Capacity of Rhino-Rack Crossbars for Retrax XR Tonneau Cover Per Bar or TotalGood 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 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.

view full answer... - Tonneau Cover Recommendation for 2019 Toyota Tacoma Long Bed that Can Have Roof Rack InstalledThe only tonneau cover we have for your 2019 Toyota Tacoma long bed that can have the Rhino Rack roof rack part number # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 installed is the Pace Edwards UltraGroove part # 311-KMTA09A37. There isn't a way to install the rack on a Retrax PowerPro XR as there isn't a channel system.
view full answer... - Rhino Rack Ladder Rack that Fits Retrax Pro XR Tonneau CoverRhino Rack and Thule have roof racks with lower bars that can fit the XR tracks but only Yakima has an actual ladder rack with the Yakima OverHaul HD Adjustable Truck Rack w/ Retrax XR Tonneau Cover Adapter # Y01151-5855 for your application which is a rack system that gives you 68 inch long HD style Yakima bars and everything needed to fit into the channels of the RetraxPRO XR.
view full answer... - Recommended Rack for Pace Edwards JackRabbit with Explorer Rails On Toyota TundraThe Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System part # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 is what I recommend using with a Pace Edwards Full-Metal JackRabbit Hard Tonneau Cover with Explorer Rails. This rack is a great price point option with most of the same features as other top tier options like from Thule or Yakima. In regards to mounting a rooftop tent, this won't be an issue for this rack. If you like, we offer the Yakima SkyRise HD Tent for Roof Rack Crossbars part # Y07436 which is a great option.
view full answer... - RetraxONE XR Rail Compatible Roof Rack For TentYakima offers a great solution that is compatible with the rails provided by your RetraxONE XR tonneau cover. The rack would assemble using the following parts: • Yakima 70 inch wide CoreBar crossbars, part # Y00423 • Yakima SkyLine Towers, part # Y00148 • Yakima Landing Pad 1, part # Y00221 (sold in pairs, you'll need 2 pairs) This rack setup has a HUGE 600 lb static (when vehicle is NOT in motion) weight capacity, so it'll work great for a tent.

view full answer... - Will The Yakima SweetRoll Carrier Fit The Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbars for Retrax XR Tonneau CoversThe Yakima SweetRoll Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs part # Y04074 fit crossbars up to 3-1/2" wide and 1-11/16" tall so you will not have an issue clamping the SweetRoll system to the Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System part # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 that measure 71" long x 3-1/8" wide x 1-3/16" tall. The feet of the system fits into the channels of the XR hard tonneau covers with Trax Rails.

view full answer... - Crossbar System Compatible with OEM Ford Retractable Tonneau Cover T-Slots on 2019 F-150 RaptorI was able to confirm through my contact at Retrax that the T-channels on your 2019 Ford Raptor OEM tonneau Cover, model number VJL3Z84501A42A, share the same dimensions as the T-channels on the RetraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover w/ Trax Rails # RTT-80373, confirmed to fit the same truck. This is true because Retrax helps to manufacture some of the components for the Ford tonneau covers. With that in mind, the correct Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for your F-150 is # RRVA180B-RRRLT600,...

For a set of 70 inch long Yakima JetStream bars you'd want the part # Y00427-482104 or for 70 inch Corebar you'd want the part # Y00423-482104.

view full answer... - What is the Best Tonneau Cover and Bed Mat for 2019 Ford F-150 RaptorThe tonneau cover that I recommend for your 2019 Ford F-150 Raptor is the PowertraxPRO XR Hard Tonneau Cover part # RTT-90373. The PowertraxPRO XR has two really great features that allow it to stand out from the competition, a power retracting cover that can be set and locked at different points along the bed rails and integrated tracks so you can haul items without sacrificing bed space. The PowertraxPRO XR is constructed of several aluminium top panels for extreme durability but...

These are available in 65" Vortex Crossbars as part # RRVA165B-RRRLT600 or 71" bars as part # RRVA180B-RRRLT600.
view full answer... - Recommended Crossbars for Roof Top Tent on 2016 Ram 1500 with BAKFlip MX4 TonneauThe Yakima BedRock HD Bars # Y01160-59 you referenced have a 300-lbs total capacity, not per bar; additionally it should be noted that when used for off road applications you'll be limited to 180-lbs total. The good thing about most crossbar mounted tent systems is that they're going to have a ladder system that will also support a lot of the weight, so you shouldn't have too much of an issue as long as you're under the weight limit of the tent. The issue is that if you've got a BAKFlip...

You can absolutely use a roof top tent with this setup but you will want to go with one like the Yakima SkyRise # Y07436 that uses a ladder for additional support.
