Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Naked Roofs or Fixed Mounting Points - Qty 4
i George from etrailer, The rack is awesome! Strong, firm hold and nice looking. When doing surveys, I put my ladders on the rack. I highly recommend this etrailer.
I put 3 stars because its a useful functional non-harmful roof rack solution for my WRX sedan. This review lost 2 stars because the rubber top pieces get damaged upon any accessory removal or install like(bike, snowboard rails etc). Additionally, these accessories also look to be weathering quickly because of build quality. Hopefully this helps your decision! Thanks

Custom DK Fit Kit for 4 Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack Legs - Naked Roof
Mounts great to my F150. Carries my canoe perfectly. With kayak attachments it carries those well. Nice to have a roof option to keep the bed open
Absolutely love the Rhino Rack. Easy to install (watch the [online] video). Looks GREAT. Hauls my kayaks no problem. Very well made and I highly recommend this product.

Custom DK Fit Kit for 4 Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack Legs - Naked Roof
I needed roof racks on my 2023 Silverado to accommodate the shape of my canoe. I had Yakima racks on the camper shell but the canoe was hitting the top of my truck. My Rhino racks showed up yesterday evening and I’m ready to go this morning!
This kit has been perfect for my new truck and allowed me to use my bars from my other truck on the new one. This kit is actually more succeed than the ones that I replaced. I use the rhino rack to carry the kayak shown in the picture

Rapid Traverse Feet for Thule Crossbars - Naked Roof - Qty 4
The whole experience was freakin awesome. * Ordered on-line, delivered when promised, all packages were in excellent condition, and all parts were accounted for - no shortages, THANK YOU! * The Thule roof rack design, quality of materials, comprehensive instructions were really impressive. Everything went together without a hitch and really looks good installed. * We plan on carrying our 12 1/2' SUP's on the roof rack when we head out to the lakes. * It saves us time as our SUP's are inflatable, however it takes a bit of time to pump them up once we get there. Now it's just loosen them up and we're ready to go. Great job etrailer, I would definitely buy more products from your organization!!
Etrailer helped me out of a jam as I could not find the Thule parts I needed. They not only had the parts but got them to me in a few days! Made my trip to Lake Placid possible! Fantastic communication and customer service.

Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Silver - 59" Long - Qty 2
The rhino rack is well made but suffers from the flat bottom rubber feet. Since nearly all cars and trucks have roof seams, foot pads should be stepped to engage the seam like other racks such as Thule does. It's unlikely that very many different shapes would be needed to fit most vehicles. Rhino tech didn't agree with my assessment.
This racks us very good!!!

Yakima RoundBar Crossbars - Steel - Black - 58" Long - Qty 2
Free delivery that showed up in 3 days!!! Can't beat it. The crossbars with the Control Towers and LandingPad 9 fit perfectly on my Honda Element. Had them installed in about 30 mins. Don't have my cargo box yet and wanted to test strength, so I had my 110lb wife standing on them with no issues (yes, the car was parked). Plan to take a long camping trip next week with a cargo box on top...wife will be in the vehicle:-)
works good

Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack for Camper Shells - Track Mount - Black - 59" Bars
Great seller. Excellent communication and fast shipment. Product is as described, and all the parts were included for a great install. I installed myself. I'm fairly handy, and i thought it was easy to install alone on a fiberglass Snugtop. Took about 2.5 hours. I followed the instructions included plus I used a seamstress tape measure, drill, brad-point bit, wrench for tightening fasteners, shopvac. Great looking rack.
The item was actually the Rhino-rack roof rack complete system including Aero- bars and tracks for camper shells without existing tracks ( and not the quick mount legs pictured). I received the shipment with literally half of the components missing and had to wait for the missing parts to be sent. Still ended up with one part missing so had to wait again for that part to be sent. Took a total of 3 months from the time I ordered until I had all the parts to complete installation. I still gave 4 stars due to the quality of the product ( and at half the price of a comparable Yakima system), and because of the diligence and response of representatives (Amy and Tiffini) who helped me get the missing parts. I will note however (from reviewing other posted reviews) that shipping orders for this item with missing parts, and even with half the components missing, does not appear to be an isolated event)

Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for Heavy-Duty Crossbars - Naked Roofs or Fixed Mounting Points - Qty 4
This rack works perfectly on my Nissan Versa for carrying my two Perception Sound 9'6" kayaks. The Rhino-Racks look good to me. The kayaks can rest directly on the rubber pads on the rails, unlike the Yakama racks I had in the past that had bare pipe rails. Also, I expect I can buy parts to adapt this product to a different car without having to buy new towers. I am sorry there are not hooks or loops to attach bungees when carrying lumber. They are noisy in the wind, but less so when carrying the kayaks.
Thanks to Etrailer, I am ready to do some serious summer exploring with my 2013 Mazda 3! Rhino Racks, Malone top box, and Kuat bike rack!

Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack for Camper Shells - Track Mount - Black - 54" Bars
very solid rack, it's not going anywhere. Several fasteners to affix to truck cap. Clean look for the First Gen Tacoma (1999).
This is the second vehicle now that I've put the Rhino-Rack Aero Bar roof rack kit on. The instructions aren't too hard to follow with basic assembly knowledge and etrailer has a video tutorial for installation instruction which helped also. I didn't realize the allen wrench they provided also doubles as the security bolt bit you'll need when installing the brackets into the tracks so I just picked one up at the local hardware store. It's a great value for this product and I never had issues with my last kit and don't anticipate any with this one.

Yakima CoreBar Crossbars - Steel - Black - 60" Long - Qty 2
Was skeptical at first because I needed the posts as well for my 2011 Honda Element. The Honda crossbars were not adequately weight rated and is why I opted for Yakima. Couldn't be happier with my choice as this assembly has served me well throughout the year.
Perfect. Perfect. Easy to install and high quality. Confident in this product. Excellent instructions. Used with towers of course! Towers and crossbars have demonstrated to be strong and durable with several trips with kayaks.

Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty Roof Rack Crossbars - Black - 59" Long - Qty 2
Like this but whistles when you go higher speeds
Ok… giving this item four stars as an overall view. The good: it fits a Jeep Wrangler perfectly. With the appropriate legs, it canvases across the entire roof of the Jeep with the legs attaching to the gutters. The bad: just a bit too noisy for my liking, even with the appropriate wind faring (I don’t expect absolute silence since I have a one touch sky top). The noise is not a big deal on short trips, but it was definitely driving my wife and kids nuts on a 2+ hour drive (stick some headphones on the kids, problem fixed) In the future, I might switch it up from these square rails and go with something a bit more aerodynamic…

Rhino-Rack Roof Rack for Thule and Yakima Tracks - 2 Heavy-Duty Crossbars - Black - 65" Long
The Rhino Rack HD crossbar kit for tracks fits my SyneticUSA Pro retractable cover perfectly. RR includes several track nuts of different sizes to match to your particular track. I love the quick detach capability of the towers and that they also lock for security. The HD bars are essentially the same dimension of 1 5/8" unistrut/superstrut so you can find all sorts of attachment hardware outside of what RR makes. This makes it easy to securely bolt your gear down to the cross bars and customize with easy to find hardware at your local home depot. The 65" HD bars are perfect for a mid size truck like my Tacoma.
The rack more than exceeded my expectations. It was easy to assemble and mount on the cap of my Tacoma truck. I was pleasantly surprised by the aerodynamics which virtually eliminate wind noise, even at highway speed. I pirchased the rack as a permanent mount for a 4rod flyrod holder which I use daily for fishing. The Rhino keeps everything “tight and right”. It has worked perfectly for nearly three hundred trips and over 15,000 miles this year.

Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty Roof Rack for Camper Shells - Track Mount - Black - 59" Bars
My truck top already had Thule tracks from the factory. The Rhino rack installed into the existing tracks with no problems. The instructions were clear and intuitive and the whole process took about an hour.
The Rhino-Rack roof rack worked out great for us. The install was straight forward and was easily done by one person, me. We used the rack to mount two J type kayak carriers that held two Perception Pilot kayaks and drove from the Seattle area all the way to Cabo San Lucas, including going through some wind storms in California. Everything preformed perfect.

Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Naked Roofs or Fixed Mounting Points - Qty 2
Component parts of the Rhino Rack. Everything works well!
We had the challenge of how to carry 2 kayaks this summer in addition to hauling a 30 foot gooseneck horse trailer. We have F450 crew cab with custom truck bed. We hoped to use the "head ache" bar on the truck bed to support the rear sets of Swagman Rincon supports and purchased a single Rhino Vortex bar for the forward sets on top of the cab. We have 10.5 and 12 foot kayaks and this looks to be an excellent solution. The kayaks are clear of the gooseneck trailer even in a "jackknife" position. Please note the truck bed is extra long therefore there is plenty of room forward the nose of the trailer. We have not hauled yet but will convey any issues if there are any. eTrailer tech support was excellent. Product shipped as projected. Installation took approximatly 3 hours.

Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty Roof Rack for Camper Shells - Track Mount - Black - 65" Bars
I can only suspect the rhino rack will be sufficient. I am in kansas and etrailer is in missouri its been 8 days since supposedly shipped and after multiple contacts with etrailer i get no shipping info or status. only that a lable was created. horrible shipping policy and service from e trailer. I have ordered from e trailer for years but NEVER again. my recent orders all have had terrible shipping. e trailer even told me they deal with this a lot so whats that tell you? if you can find your part elsewhere in stock you better do it because e trailer is in no hurry at all to assist. they state tracking info will be sent but send none even after contacting them. they wont even investagate or refund for 14 days after the order! so when you send over 500 dollars to them they accept that and then sit on any help for 14 days via already having your hard earned money. terrible policy. its sad etrailer is going downhill like so many others. only amazon and other protected buyer places for me from now on.
Great product and outstanding customer service. I’ve ordered a few things from etrailer and it’s always a great experience.

Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs - Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black
Easy install. Tough, well made. Great buyer experience. This is my second purchase from etrailer and I’ll definitely use them again.
Good rack. Not difficult to install. A little low for my intended purpose as a surf fishing rod holder as the rod and reel tend to be larger and hits the roof.

BaseClip Fit Kit for Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack Towers - Qty 2
I though I would love the core bar set up on my truck but I have really grown to love them! Weather it’s bikes, kayaks or a ladder it works great! And even better it looks great! Quieter than Thule square bars and Yakima round bars by far. I would not only buy again but one of the bars was damaged in shipment and etrailer took care of it by sending a new one to replace it right away. Will be buying from them again! Good customer service!!!!
Awesome price! Shipped to me fast and it's an amazing product. Customer service helped me through some ordering confusion and got everything figured out very smoothly. Love the roof rack!

Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack for Camper Shells - Track Mount - Black - Standard - 65" Long
I have owned this Rhino Rack System with tracks and the Aero Crossbars for over a year. It has held up well during this time. I use it mainly to carry 2 kayaks totaling approximately 110 lbs. The Aero Crossbars are sturdy and easy to take on and off. The lockable bar option is a good choice for added security. With the Crossbars removed the mounting tracks are hardly noticeable as can be seen in the picture. I have been very pleased with this rack system and would recommend it.
Ordered Item: Y02-500B to mount over my Tonneau cover on my 2015 Ford F150 with a 6.5' truck bed. Mounted side rails that crossbars slide in to a piece of 2"x1" aluminum square tubing. Mounted to truck bed with compression stake pocket inserts. 65" crossbars were 2" short and had to order Item: RRVA180B-2 to get the 71" crossbars. Had to customize several parts but overall I am very happy with the outcome as there is not many options that are minimally invasive for a permanent installation. (Zero holes were drilled into truck bed all mounting was completed with compression stake pocket mounts. I am able to use all attachments for summer and winter activities. (bike mounts, snowboard mounts, paddle board SUP mounts, and fishing rod mounts) Picture with my Thule SUP Taxi mounts. Plus rack is easily removed with 4 bolts. Can also access and use bakflip tonneau cover by removing crossbars in less than 20 seconds.

Fit Kit for Thule Podium-Style Roof Rack Feet - 3101
Please see my review of Thule risers this Fit Kit was used with, as well as, Flint Hill basket. Same pic below as there. Weakest element of this item are the clips that fit into slots to secure it to - whatever - in my case, a Retrax Pro, manual Tonneau cover on the bed if my truck. See pic. Hard to visualize appropriate, secure placement. Seem to be working, but major test to come.
Excellent!!! Worked great!!!
