Hello neighbors, Steve here with etrailer.com. Today we're looking at this replacement Yakima 1A rain gutter tower. Now folks, if you're watching this, more likely you're either replacing a worn out or broken part, or maybe you bought a used kit and you're missing a few parts and you need to get 'em, well, either way, we got you covered here at etrailer, this guy will clamp onto the vehicle rain gutter with the provided lip here that is adjustable. Once you tighten everything, it'll clamp on and it provides a nice base for the Yakima roof rack crossbars, and those will go through there. It does adjust to non-parallel rain gutters and it is lockable if you purchase the same key system or SKS cores, which are sold separately. Now with those cores, you can lock the towers to the vehicle's roof, so the attachment point here and everything will be locked where no one could get it on or off without a key.
Everything here is constructed from a tough Zytel nylon. Again, it's a height of seven and a quarter inches. And folks, you can purchase separately what's called 1A HiRise Spacers to then also increase the lift here that you're getting from the roof of your vehicle to the bar by another three and a half inches. That HiRise Spacer is sold separately and it's part number Y01101. Folks, that's gonna wrap it up for our look at this replacement Yakima 1A rain gutter tower.
I'm Steven, thanks for watching. Stay safe out there.

Replace one 1A Raingutter Tower for your vehicle's roof-rack system with this kit. Tower provides the base for your system, attaching to traditional rain gutters and holding crossbars (sold separately) in place.I bought this part to replace a broken Yakima Rack Tower on the family tent trailer. One of the towers has been broken for a couple years and finally gave out completely. After looking around, found this on etrailer.com, the price was right, so i ordered it. Part was delivered exactly when promised and it was exactly what I ordered (and needed!) Looked brand new to me and fit just as it should. I almost want to order 3 more now, as this one makes the other 3 look bad :-). I will certainly look to etrailer.com for any future camper needs!
I purchased a single Yakima 66" round cross bar and a pair of gutter mount towers.
The Yakima mega warrior cargo basket and cross bar set up I have was super easy to install, very user friendly. The extra cargo space is great,
Customer service at etrailer is great. Shipment of my order was slightly delayed. I was made aware of the shipping status by email consistently until I received the products. Answers to my questions we're prompt and courteous.
Shipped quick. Direct swap out for my broken 1A Tower. Note: You must reuse the stud from original tower. This tower does not come complete and ready to bolt up. Not a big deal as long as you still have your old tower in hand.
I needed this Yakima replacement tower for a trip. Etrailer had one in stock and got it to me super fast. I was able to fix the roof rack and hullavator! Thanks so much.
Looks good now I just need a way to secure it with out the knob, and bolt.

with my son in Washington state no complaints
Great parts , and they were all the right parts , delivered to your door !
roof racks showed up in great condition, and showed up as one package.... I should have ordered the J racks from here but I found them cheaper locally so Thule J racks compliment the whole setup and i am just about ready to hit the water :)
As always E trailer handled my order extremely well. Kept me updated on shipping also. Very professional!
Thank again, etrailer. You always have what I’m looking for. I already had the bars, but I needed the towers.
etrailer never disappoints! Every product I need, I check that etrailer has it before purchasing anywhere else. Thank you for the excellent service, the fast delivery, and the email updates on order status.
Ez to install and look good
Fits awesome on my 2016 jeep unlimited. Some wind noise but not a problem.
Fit the 79 Dodge van perfectly
I received the Rain gutter riser, 66' round bars, boat loader and SKS lock cores all well packaged and in good shape. These are for a 2020 Jeep Wrangler JLU Rubicon. The products were easy to install and will work great for loading and transporting my Hobie Outfitter Kayak. The Outfitter is a heavy kayak at 75 lbs unloaded. The Yakama Boat loader makes it easy for one person to load and unload the kayak. The rain gutter mounts and round bars securely hold the kayak for transportation. When not transporting the kayak the whole system quickly removes.
A big plus with ordering through etrailer is the excellent custom service, they will be my go to for future orders.
I chose the Yakima A1 raingutter towers for mounting a 96" Yakima crossbar for my Humvee wildfire rig rooftop gear rack. The towers are sturdy and able to handle the constant jarring expected in wild land fire fighting in rugged terrain.
These Yakima towers just work. They go on easily and stay tight. No issues whatsoever. They are a little pricey, but it's nice to have something that just works well without any drama.
Did an excellent job guys. The Yakima towers arrived on time and in good shape. Mounted right up to the canopy clips, installed the existing bars, kayak racks, and lock cores without any issues. All is ship-shape now. Will definitely come back to you guys again.
Thanks!
The customer service is exceptional. Nick went above and beyond getting the package out as well as dedicated follow-up. I will be ordering another roof rack for another vehicle. Even the return process was seamless thanks to Shelia. I ordered a tow hitch wiring harness a few months ago and received the same great service. Will continue to do business with etrailer.
Yakima rack arrived a day earlier than expected. All the parts were there instructions were clear took about half hour to install. The rack is a little noisy at highway speed. Darn, guess I'll have to take the back roads! Thumbs up to both etrailer and Yakima.

Works great, keeps bulky stuff out of the living quarters while we’re on the road.
