Fit Kit for Thule Podium-Style Roof Rack Feet - 3142
Parts were great for fit and function. Instructions total FAIL. Purchased new roof racks in three boxes: feet, podium, and rails, three unique sets of directions, all very poor in clarity and actual steps. For a premium product this is very disappointing. Installed them consulting third party videos and forums with anecdotal information, not what I would expect to have to do for the money I spent.
Fit could be a little cleaner on the factory rails, but they do the job.

Rhino-Rack RVP Roof Rack for Fixed Mounting Points - Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Qty 2
I have had the Rhino Rack(RRRVP27) for a year now for my 2019 Grand Cherokee, and it is an excellent product. I watched the installation video first and from there it made installation easy. The rack is very sturdy and well made. We have only used it a handful of times, for midsized items weighing 30 to 50 lbs. On occasion I do hear a slight whistle, but it only seems to happen when there is strong wind or a cross wind. Most of the time it is quiet, and I do not notice any noise. I would recommend this rack for anyone in the market one, and I also recommend etrailer.com for your needs. They made purchasing very easy, good communication, and great follow up.
This is an excellent product for my 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The order was delivered in 2 days. I received all the parts with clear instructions for assembly and installation. The installation was easy and they look very clean on the vehicle, as opposed to the Mopar rails that extend beyond the bases. The only question I had was I'm not sure why there is storage for the included Torx wrench in the base when you need a 10mm socket to both remove the rack/bases assembly from the metal/rubber mounts and to attach the plastic covers for when the racks are not in use. The Torx wrench is only for completely removing the mounts. Maybe just so you won't lose it. I found the online videos very helpful as well. I also purchased the 27" ski rack which is also an excellent product and will hold 6 pairs of skis if they are back to back. I haven't used it yet but I believe there is enough height clearance to mount one ski face down without the ski binding hitting the roof. I am very happy with etrailer.com for providing everything needed from materials to installation support.

Purchase for a 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee, black rails. Perfect fit.
The roof rack is a Christmas present for my son, so I don’t have a picture of it set up yet,I ordered the wrong item so I had to cancel it, then I had to call back and reorder it, everyone I spoke with was super nice and very helpful, no problems with the cancellation. I would defiantly order from etrailer again and would defiantly recommend to a friend

Landing Pad 18 for Yakima SkyLine and Control Towers - Qty 4
These towers (Y00148) and the Landing Pads (Y00244) are needed to mount the cross-bars on my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The Jeep has flush rails, with an open channel along the top. They are very heavy duty, typical of Yakima stuff. Worked great.
Easy to install. Not impressed with the fit though. The biggest selling point is being able to remove the towers and leave the pad though. Overall happy with the purchase.

Rapid Traverse Feet for Thule Crossbars - Naked Roof - Qty 4
Got a 2020 Grand Cherokee with the black metal roof side rails. I had planned on using the 60" Aerobars with the 460R pedestals, but oddly the bar didn't have long enough mounting points. So after talking with these folks, I opted for the 480R instead. While they 'technically' worked, the rack sat way in front of the factory rails. I did a LOT of talking with Thule and others and finally opted to get the 69" Probars. They work with the 460R pedestals, fit into the factory side rails and while I did have to get them cut down to 60", have enough room for everything I need to mount. So, my only compliant is that both Thule and etrailer don't seem to have the Probars listed as an option for the Grand Cherokee. They are the best option, especially if you have a Hullivator. And they look great!
It’s OK, The product is well designed and does the job, but looks a bit clunky on our all-black Jeep Grand Cherokee. This retro-fit option does not have a sleek, streamlined appearance like a factory install. If you’re going for a sporty look, then you will probably like this product.

Custom RCP Fit Kit for 4 Rhino-Rack RC and RV Series Roof Rack Legs - Fixed Mounting Points
Purchase for a 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee, black rails. Perfect fit.
Greg S was awesome! I was on quite a few different manufacturer websites trying to figure out the best solution for my sons Jeep Grand Cherokee . He’s a snow boarder and we wanted to get him the complete roof rack solution. I came across the etrailer site and noticed they had sales and tech support . Greg answered the phone and helped me determine the best solution. He took the time to send me links for everything Called me back later that night to assist with my order placement . He even emailed me to let me know when it arrived and to follow up. Very pleased with the entire process. We will install after the holidays and I’m confident if I need any help they will be there for us!

Yakima JetStream Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 50" Long - Qty 2
These bars are outstanding. They were purchased for a Jeep grand cherokee '18. I had previously purchased from another brand, but the whistle noise was constant and very noticeable. These are completely quiet, I am glad I changed to the yakima bars. Installation was also much easier, and more "flush" mounting with the yakima brand. Glad to do business with etrailer!
Seems fine.

RCL Legs for Rhino-Rack Crossbars and Pioneer Platforms - Fixed Mounting Points - Qty 4
Purchase for a 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee, black rails. Perfect fit.
Great bars. It's my second pair. Both on jeep Grand cherokee. The pair I put on my 2015 overland didn't whistle at all. This pair I put on my 2020 trailhawk whistled starting at 20mph and changed pitch throughout the acceleration process and while causing. I bought a fairing and the problem is solved. At least for now. I put the fairing on wit the label in. Looks better and Rhino Rack isn't paying me to advertise. The fairing they recommended seemed small but works so go with whatever they recommend.

Yakima RoundBar Crossbars - Steel - Black - 48" Long - Qty 2
I ordered the Yakima roof rack, with the Hullyrollers for the back crossbar and the Mako saddles for the front crossbar to use with my kayak. It arrived just like they told me and I put them on my car the eveningit arrived. Got to finlly use the roof rack on June 22 to go out kayaking and it worked great. Only thing is I did not know about the air reflector piece for the front crossbar. Now I will be ordering it to help with the wind noise.
Great rack, go on fast, easy to install and work well on my VW TDI wagon. Care has to be given and follow the instructions for the install to what type of rails you have. Works great carrying the VW luggage carrier and plan on using it to carry kayaks as well. Just have not decided what kayak rack type to get yet.

Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Naked Roofs or Fixed Mounting Points - Qty 4
Fit my 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the appropriate other feet and bars that the site listed. Install took about 2 hours total. The 'VA' measurement for feet position was about 9mm total off from a perfect fit, so I re-positioned them and it fit snug and looks GREAT. Hoping to get some use out of the rack soon.
Awesome product! Fits like a glove on my 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited X. There is a slight whistling noise, but otherwise couldn’t be happier with the overall package!

Inno Feet for Square Crossbars - Track Systems, Flush Side Rails, and Fixed Mounting Points - Qty 4
Excellent quality rack adapter. I have used Inno products for a number of years and they are just as good as Thule or Yakima and lower in price. I am using these feet with a square bar system I have had for years. Got a new vehicle with different rails and was please that there were adapters available from Inno.
This Inno rack is a sturdy, basic rack. What I like best about it: - It actually mounts to the roof tracks on my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee (with the INTR132 fit kit), instead of to hard points on the roof like many other racks. - It lets me use my Thule bars and accessories because Inno and Thule bars are the same size. - It was much less expensive than the other racks I looked at. - It is pretty easy to put on and take off. What I don't like as much: - The locking covers that go over the towers are pretty flimsy, and look like they are on crooked even when installed correctly - This rack is quite noisy on the Grand Cherokee, but I think that's just the nature of the rectangular bars. (But since it is easy to take off, I plan on only putting it on the car when needed). Also, thanks to the folks at etrailer for helping me figure out what would work best for my needs!

Custom Fit Kit for Inno XS300, XS350, XS400, XS450, INTR, and INXR Roof Rack Feet
I had been looking a very long time for a roof rack for my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I wanted round or tubular crossbars, different from the “air foil” style, which were the only kind available from the factory and the many imitators. I finally found etrailer, and these fit the bill perfectly. The attachments fit the rails just like the factory model, and hold the rectangular cross bars firmly. A sturdy and solid product. And even with free shipping they arrived the morning of the second day after I ordered them, in time for the trip I was planning to take with them.

RCH Legs for Rhino-Rack Crossbars and Pioneer Platforms - Fixed Mounting Points - Qty 4
The small square plates had defective threads. Plus, it was difficult to get the legs lined up with the crossbars. I could not tighten the crossbar bolts in place due to lack of space. I had to remove the crossbars to tighten the assembly.
I bought this kit because I already owned a pair of Thule “square “ crossbars. When in place the rack is super solid. However, it has some issues. It is quite difficult to attach the legs to the base plate on the factory rails. It doesn’t click on and off. Quite annoying. A fiddly two person job. Also the wind noise is very noticeable. Also annoying.

Yakima CoreBar Crossbars - Steel - Black - 50" Long - Qty 2
One bar slid out on our first road trip. The "grip" that it slides into can't be adjusted. I am in communication with Yakima about this as Etrailer said that's the route that I would need to go. Very frustrating.
From start to finish, the folks at etrailer -- and I spoke to several people there, so it was a consistent corporate vibe -- were fantastic to deal with. There were delays in getting my product that were on the supplier side and out of etrailer's control, yet etrailer folks kept me up to date and also worked on a customized solution. My goal was to be able to carry my surfboard on the roof of our 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe to the beach more than 3 hours away. But the particular model we had had no existing racks, no recessed areas, nothing to fix racks to. Not even the dealer had a solution. I was sh*t out of luck. But etrailer hooked me up. The racks did take me a while to put on, but most of that time was fine tuning to reduce “hum” while driving. I’m very happy with them. Thanks to etrailer, I have gone surfing and can go surfing whenever I'd like to.

Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack - Aero Crossbars - Raised Side Rails - Aluminum - 50" Long - Silver
Roof rack crossbars fit my 2006 Jeep nicely. The 50” bar just fit, and some people may prefer he 58” bars to make mounting to the raised side rails a little easier. It took me a few tries to get the positioning set just right with the 50” bars. The advantage is not having 4” of bars sticking over the doors where tall people could hit their head.
received the racks very quickly they installed within an hour and they look great. I put them on a 2005 jeep grand cherokee.

Yakima JetStream Crossbars - Aluminum - Silver - 50" Long - Qty 2
Easy to install. No noticeable noise from the bars. Seem to be very sturdy.
The 50” jetstream cross bars were perfect for my 2019 Ford Ranger with my ARE cap. They are paired with the Yakima Skyline towers and appropriate landing pads (protip: call etrailer when you order to ensure you have the correct setup;) These cross bars are SILENT on my cap. Zero wind noise. My daughter and I installed them on a Friday (I do recommend watching etrailer’s installation video in addition to the paper instructions) and left for a 700 mile weekend road trip the next day to pick up a kayak, paddle with friends downstate then drop her off at summer camp. Even with empty Yakima Jaylows on top, no wind noise. Even with a boat in the Jaylows, no wind noise. These are the sweetest rack’s I’ve had. With the Skyline towers and landing pads, they are also easy to take off and put on. Click click done. They look good, too;) etrailer customer service for the win, too. When I originally ordered, I did not order all the items I needed for installation. When I realized this, I called and they got me squared away.

Inno Square Crossbars - Steel - Black - 50" Long - Qty 2
Ordered a full (naked) roof rack package with snowboard/ski attachment. Items arrived as described. Set-up was simple and flawless. Instructions are fairly clear & simple. A paper tape measure is included. No issues with fitment.Purchased the fairing to reduce wind noise and it works perfect! No excessive wind noise whatsoever -- can open sunroof comfortably if I wanted to. Have not yet put my snowboards inthe attachment yet, but do not foresee any issues. Roof rack is on a 2015 Infiniti Q40 (G37 sedan 2009-2015).

Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars - Aluminum - Silver - 53" Long - Qty 2
Bought these for my 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The only problem I discovered is that I should have ordered the 47" version. The 53" version sticks out the side much more than I like. I bought the 53" version thinking that I needed that length to accommodate putting a 48" sheet of material on top. The install was actually very simple.
Thule rack looks great on my Kia Telluride. The pieces took a while to get to me because they were on backorder but it's not etrailer, they were on backorder everywhere. I messed up a piece of the rubber while installing and etrailer sent me another one free of charge. Would definitely recommend etrailer.
Mount: Yakima RidgeLine Roof Rack for Flush Rails on a 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee
Hi, everybody. Adam, here, from etrailer. Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Yakima CoreBar roof rack system on our 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee. With fifty inch cross bars we can put a bunch of different stuff up on our roof. We would probably have enough room to put a cargo basket up here, maybe a bike rack on top of that. We can put multiple different J-Style kayak carriers up on here and of course we can put a bunch of different ski and snowboard carriers to carry multiple different skis.
Yakima Roof Rack Review - 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Y00148
Adam: What's going on everybody, Adam here with etrailer. Today we're going to be taking a look at the Yakima round bar roof rack system on our 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee. We all know that Jeeps are very capable vehicles, but putting a roof rack on top of it is going to definitely widen its amount of capabilities. I really like our etrailer basket on top, just because if you have a bunch of people inside, you have a bunch of other stuff in the back, we can actually pretty much double the amount that we can fit in the back up on top of our roof. Another thing you can do is we have J-style carriers that you can put up on top to get two kayaks to and from your destination.With 48 inches of crossbars, we are going to have a lot of different things we can put up on there. I've seen a bunch of different bike racks on there.
