To see if this custom-fit item will work for you please tell us what vehicle you'll use it with.
When you’re carrying serious gear—like kayaks, canoes, or a full cargo box—you want bars that stay solid and steady. These heavy-duty aluminum crossbars create a sturdy platform that can handle up to 220 lbs while keeping things balanced on the road. The rigid construction inspires confidence whether you’re cruising to the lake or hauling tools to the jobsite.
These aren’t sleek aero bars built for looks—they’re built for work. The square crossbars feature top channels that fit Rhino-Rack Heavy Duty accessories like ladder rollers, load stops, and eyebolts. That means your setup can flex between hauling watercraft, lumber, or camping gear without needing a new rack each time.
When your load shifts or vibrates on the road, it can make noise or move out of place. The rubber strips in the top channels help cushion your gear and provide slip resistance so everything stays put. They also close the channels when not in use, keeping them protected from debris and weather.
Once the rack is installed to the tracks on your vehicle’s roof, lockable cover plates on each leg keep it secure. The plates protect the mounting points and help deter tampering so you can leave your setup in place without worry when you stop for the night or take a break from the water.
This system is made to handle years of hauling and weather exposure. The aluminum construction resists rust and corrosion, and Rhino-Rack backs it up with solid coverage—crossbars come with a limited lifetime warranty, while the legs and tracks each carry a 5-year limited warranty for added peace of mind.

Came so fast! Thank you!
All good
The rack fit perfectly and works great
Worked as intended on top of my Ram Promaster and was super easy to set up.
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. :(
When I bought this for my ram promaster not even the manufacturer could tell me how it rated. I was so new they had no comparisons. I’ve had it on my van for over a year. Traveling around the country through all kinds of weather. Rain, hail, snow, and sun in the desert.
This rack is awesome.!!
Great product. Added bike mounts and placed on my Diamondback cover. Works great.
Added to my Ford Transit van to hold solar panels. Fit the factory holes well and we have had no problems. Exactally what we needed. I will be adding two more eventually but now we are having too much fun with the van.
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.
Nice rack system, strong and durable. Used on a Ford e350 to mount solar panels. Only draw back, one of the L brackets that goes under the rain gutter was not bent square enough and this caused the bracket to slide off when tightened. I had to adjust this with a clamp and hammer, no issues since.
Do you have a question about this Roof Rack?
