Great customer service finding the correct product
Everything went together well. Instructions simple enough. My kit did not have the grommets that go into the track foot that mounts to the track, but that's not a big deal, just a way to keep them quiet, i guess.... and maybe they aren't in the latest version. The racks feel solid enough, but time will tell. Replacing another brand that came with my Leer shell. These will be put the test hauling surfboards and kayaks all over the Texas coast.
Order is lost. Only received half of it. Tape your boxes together like you did on previous orders.
Our bars did not arrive. It only takes three days to ship to Anchorage Alaska from anywhere CONUS.
was missing track leg grommets (4) for track legs. Called JoshuaB and he has contacted Rhino Rack to replace grommets. Item #13 on master manual parts list. Packing split on box during delivery and looked as if limited tape where two boxes connected. Packing issue, maybe, or usps issue.
Rhino Rack is a good strong product. However the Rhino Feet attachment to the Thule track rails did not fit as advertised. The Rhino feet attachment plates had to be ground down to fit inside the Thule track rail channels. Everyone of them. Not a big deal, as i have a bench grinder. I would estimate that the Rhino plates were at least a full .020" of an inch too large to fit in the channel. (see pictures) The rest of the install was a snap, in my opinion the Rhino directions were lacking enough detail. Some trial and error was needed as is common with most items that require some assembly. Completed install is good looking and super functional.
The heavy duty rhino-racks are very well built. There is wind noise. That can be muffled some by using uni-stut closure strips. Uni-strut fasteners fit on both the top and bottom of these bars making it nice for building your own custom tie down and attachment points
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.
E-Trailer support was stellar. They helped me find the right product and worked hard to get it shipped out. Product installed easy per the included instructions and E-Trailer help videos. I have ordered many items from E-Trailer and will continue to do so.
Attached these to Yakima tracks on my pickup copper. Loaded our two 13’ kayaks on them last weekend. Worked great, easy to install. It was missing a couple parts, I reached out to etrailer with what parts were missing and they came in the mail yesterday. Excellent customer service and very satisfied with the product.
the rails worked great on 8' topper. I used my own SS screws not the rivets supplied. I only gave a 4 because it was missing one of the end caps. :(
Etrailer is my go to for all my overlanding needs
Mostly satisfied. Not issue of etrailers and nothing really wrong with the product but do find it funny and a bit dumb that RhinoRack gives you security screws to hold feet to track but the rails are attached with a standard bolt that can be easily seen and accessed by anyone.
sturdy, coated steel or stainless 5mm (3/16) rivets included to reduce corrosion chances.
problem encountered: air riveter required (readily available to borrow or purchase ) due to strength of rivets , the problem is all common rivet guns are too large in diameter to fit into the rail "valley" so the tip is flush with the surface of the hole which is required for proper fastening. In some rhino rack instructional videos these are clearly made with enlarged spaces to fit rivet gun . are these really rhino rack or knock off ? bad production run ? I solved the problem because I have access to a machine shop and was under time pressure due to a planned trip but most customers would be in a mess with no way to solve this issue.
that said , after several extra hours of effort I successfully mounted the rails and new pioneer rack and roof top tent on my naked metal roof and i am happily able to go down the road.
ps
Shiela was wonderful! fantastic customer service ,all other rhino products received from e trailer were great, e trailer was speedy and very helpful!
I like the Rhino Rack RTV track because is allows Vortex Aero cross bars to be easily moved and removed. However the appropriately sized rectangular track nuts (M6 24x21x5 part No. N057) used to mount items to the rack are no longer available or manufactured. Consequently RTV track cannot be easily used to secure additional items. Rhino Rack is unable to offer a solution other than returning the wrong sized track nuts so I will manufacture my own attachment nuts. After drilling 18 holes in the roof of my new car and installing the RTV track and cross bars, the lack of compatible nuts was a big disappointment. The product should not be sold if components are not available.
Kit was great, except my SnugTop cover required longer T-Bolts for mounting the tracks. The 1.5 inch ones provided were too short. It was a little tough sourcing T/Bolts that would work. It would have been nice if longer T-Bolts could have been an option from Rhino Rack.
