When you’re loading up kayaks, canoes, or camping gear, strength and stability matter. This Rhino-Rack Heavy Duty Roof Rack includes three sturdy aluminum crossbars, six gutter-mount legs, and two spacer blocks for a solid foundation. Each bar measures 54" long x 1-5/8" wide x 1-7/8" tall and supports up to 220 lbs (always observe your vehicle’s maximum roof load capacity). The square-bar design keeps your load steady, so you can drive knowing your gear is secure.
Whether it’s a ladder roller for the job site or load stops for weekend travel, these square crossbars are ready for Rhino-Rack Heavy Duty accessories that mount in the top channels. The channel dimensions—1-3/8" wide x 5/8" tall with a 13/16" opening—make it simple to slide in contractor-grade gear like eyebolts or tie-downs. It’s a setup built to handle real-world use without fuss.
Sliding or rattling cargo can turn a smooth drive into a headache. The integrated rubber strips in the bar channels help cushion your load while reducing movement. They also provide slip resistance, keeping gear stable when you hit bumps or take sharp turns. It’s a small but essential detail that makes every trip easier and safer.
Once the rack is in place, lockable cover plates on the legs keep everything secured to the vehicle’s rain gutters. The custom-fit installation means the bars stay put while deterring unwanted tampering. It’s a dependable solution that lets you load up and head out without second-guessing your setup.
Constructed from black aluminum, these bars resist corrosion while keeping weight low. The finish holds up well in all seasons, from sun to rain. With a limited lifetime warranty on the crossbars and 5-year limited warranties on the legs and spacers, this system is built for years of hauling adventures and hard work alike.
Ratings & Reviews
Durable looking product and has an easy install. On the roof of my van for the past year and still looking good. Holding out for 5 stars because I'm eating to see how it holds up in the desert sun after a few more years. Rhino-Rack is very hard to get information from regarding their products but etrailer had all the answers and gave me confidence with buying the product.
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!
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.
First off - excellent customer service! I called to ask about some parts and I received a “live” person in seconds. No phone button death loop, just a quick response. The assistant was helpful, professional, and knowledgeable.
Now for the other part - The 8” Rhino roof rack for our sky-touch wrangler jeep, worked excellent! Easy to assemble, great finish. I would highly recommend their Etrailer and their products. On the Big Island of Hawaii, these racks will get some use for sure!
Mahalo!
Amazing product. Fit, finish, quality is absolutely amazing!
Have hauled our bikes all over MI, through the UP, and back. They never moved. Rack is super simple to remove from the rails to grant full access to the PU bed.
I think this is one of the Best options out there for taking your bikes with you while still having your covered bed space. I also can install a Ski box for the winter. Ski's in the box while gear in the covered bed.
These are the perfect racks for a low profile mounting of solar panels on my Sprinter van.
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.
The folks at etrailer made it easy for me to get the right rack and crossbars for my Jeep. I have a skytop so the rack had to be tall enough to clear the top as it opens and closes (accordion style). The customer service person who helped me recommended the rack legs with the right amount of clearance and the right size cross bars. The website had photos of other Wrangler Unlimited owners with the rack installed on the same type of top. The video of installation was clear and thorough. No problems with the rack at all; still tight and flush on the gutter, no wind noise with the rubber inserts, doesn't look all weathered and beaten after a New England winter either. The boat on the rack only weighs about 45 pounds but the rack can easily handle double that or more.
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.
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.
Team was helpful in ordering the correct part. Delivery well managed. Installation straightforward.
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.
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
Good quality. . Exactly what I ordered
Perfect fit for Toyota Land Cruiser 2001.
You guys are the best! I have never had a problem with any products from etrailer. Items are always what I expect and are on time.
Great quality parts, good customer service and quick shipping
I am normally a exclusive Amazon shopper, but etrailer gives equal or better service and has specialty items you just can't find anywhere else. The pricing is great also. This is my 4th order from them on this project and the response has been perfect and the shipping has been prompt. They even offered to take back an item that I did not need. I desperately wanted to mount my 19ft Kayak on my new RV and with some Rhino RT tracks, a Rhino Nautic kayak lifter, a few really heavy duty rivets, and some ingenuity, I was able to accomplish the task. I am replacing the current Nautic bars with the heavy duty bars. See the attached pictures.
