When you’re hauling kayaks, canoes, or a heavy cargo box, you want bars that give you room to spread out and strength you can count on. The Sportz roof rack’s full-length 65" aluminum crossbars give you extra space for wide loads and multiple carriers. With a weight capacity of 165 lbs, it’s built to handle your weekend adventures without flex or fuss.
Wind noise and drag can wear you down on a long drive. These aero-style crossbars shape airflow to cut down on the whistling and vibration that older square bars can cause. The rubberized dual strips in the top channels help guide the air cleanly over the bars, keeping things quieter and more comfortable on your way to the water or campsite.
Whether you’re hauling bikes, skis, or luggage boxes, this rack makes it easy. The crossbars work with accessories that mount in the top channels or clamp around the bars, so most carriers fit right up. It’s also compatible with Rhino-Rack gear that uses the Zwifloc fastening system, giving you flexibility to use what you already have or expand later.
A stable setup starts with a solid base. The Sportz roof rack installs directly to your vehicle’s rain gutters using four sturdy legs and adapters. Once tightened down, they create a firm hold that keeps the bars level and secure through wind and bumps. No extra parts or rails needed—just a direct fit for dependable support every time.
Rain or shine, this rack is ready to roll. The black aluminum build resists rust and wear while keeping weight low for easier handling during install. It looks clean up top and stands up well to years of outdoor use. Backed by a 5-year warranty, it’s a setup made for serious travel and reliable hauling season after season.

I'm absolutely in love with Katie, my sales consultant for her great help & excellent follow up. Fully expecting cheap Chinese junk. I was delighted with the quality of the product, (Rhino Rack) which was received day after New Years. Pretty cool when order was placed Dec 29th. Simple illustrated instructions made pre assembly a snap. Wind chill is 2 below zero so I'm going to wait a day or so to mount to car. Two thumbs up from me!
I think these need to be improved for a Jeep. They clamp at an angle and tend to work towards the edge of the gutter.
I needed to get this order delivered on a tight schedule, and etrailer came through for me. Everything as ordered and delivered quickly. Great buying experience (as usual)
Great adapters. Made install a breeeeeze and a year in, they're still holding up. Great product and great site!
Items shipped as stated and on time. I appreciate the video guides on the site that are tailored to installation on my vehicle! It is super helpful seeing which items fit my vehicle.
For this specific product - I didn't know I needed spacers, but I'm glad the site recommended it. These spacers were required for my Aero Crossbars.
This was my first purchase with strainer and I just installed the rack so I have no input on durability but the install was super easy, I knew these would fit because the website made it easy to find products compatible with my Ram Promaster 1500, and Kaylyn was proactive and let me know their 71” bars were out of stock but 65” were available. Unbeknownst to her, I’m in a time crunch and her help came in clutch. I would definitely recommend buying from etrailer.
Using these and other Rhino components, I installed a roof rack for a 2021 Jeep Wrangler with a retractable roof. So far this set-up has worked as exactly as expected.
Exactly what was needed to adapt my Rhino Rack legs to the Vortex Bars. One package came with one square nut un-threaded. etrailer got me another set out quickly so I could get my rack back together.
It didn’t feel secure on the rain gutters of the Jeep as the tightening mechanism forced the clamps to move outward from the gutters. I used it only a couple of times. Wouldn’t recommend.
My vehicle was a Jeep Gladiator. The feet worked, but the part that clamps to the gutter could be improved. The clamps pull at an angle to the gutter instead of flat. They had a tendency to pull out. They needed adjustment, in my opinion, as I thought they could work themselves off. I had an aero bar and kayak carriers attached to the feet.
The Rhino racks purchased were exactly what I needed to carry kayaks on my 2015 Transit 250. The vehicle specific brackets were perfectly made.
Unfortunately the parts shipped didn't match the invoice and I ended up with mismatched parts.
When I called etrailer.com customer service, we worked out the problem and the new parts were shipped asap with the understanding I would return the incorrect parts promptly.
Overall, a great experience.
Jeep wangler 2024 4xe with skyone touch top .Amazing the setup for my fishing kayak 12 feet. Everyone was looking at my setup on the road , and it was secure. Big thx to Kurt w & Paul B to recomand this kayak setup
10/10 www.Etrailer.
Nice well built and delivered its performance . Can’t ask for more. Thanks
They did the job, note that I had to make a spacer for each leg to still be able to take it the front panels off. Love the look also.

I hate to hear that you have not been able to use the roof rack. I wanted to see if you could send a picture of how it is installed on your Jeep. I also have a video that we have done on a 2021 Jeep Gladiator.
