Features to know about

Stable Rooftop Solutions: Secure Raingutter Towers

If you own a classic ride with traditional rain gutters, the Yakima 1A Raingutter Towers could be your perfect match. These towers clamp directly onto your vehicle’s rain gutters, offering a stable base for Yakima crossbars. The robust construction of tough Zytel nylon ensures these towers stand the test of time with a weight capacity of up to 165 lbs. This means you can confidently carry your sports gear or luggage without a second thought.

Customizable Security for Peace of Mind: Same Key System (SKS) Cores

Worried about theft? The Yakima 1A Raingutter Towers are lockable with SKS Cores, which means all your Yakima locks can be keyed alike. No more fussing with multiple keys. The SKS cores secure the crossbars to the towers and the towers to your vehicle, adding a layer of protection for your gear.

Craft Your Ideal Roof Loadout: Adjustable Configuration

Every vehicle roof is unique. The 1A Raingutter Towers are designed with adaptability in mind, adjusting easily to non-parallel rain gutters. Want more clearance? You can add the 1A HiRise Spacers (sold separately) to elevate your crossbars an additional 3 inches. No matter your setup, these towers are ready to accommodate.

Effortless Installation: User-friendly Design

No one wants to spend hours fiddling with complex installations. This system’s simple design means attaching your roof rack can be done with ease, making it suitable for fitting onto a wide variety of vehicles, including older models that other racks might overlook.

Optimized for Longevity: Lifetime Warranty

Investing in car accessories can be a big decision, but with Yakima’s lifetime warranty, you’ll have the assurance you need. This long-term coverage underscores the product's reliability and the manufacturer’s confidence in their craftsmanship.

Versatile Pack Options: Complete 4 Pack

Buying a roof rack system isn’t just about strength—it’s also about getting the complete package. The Yakima 1A Raingutter Towers come in a convenient set of four, offering you everything you need to kickstart your rooftop adventure setup. Whether you plan to mount just one accessory or a full load, these towers have got you covered.

Great parts , and they were all the right parts , delivered to your door !

Looks good now I just need a way to secure it with out the knob, and bolt.



by:

Shipped quick. Direct swap out for my broken 1A Tower. Note: You must reuse the stud from original tower. This tower does not come complete and ready to bolt up. Not a big deal as long as you still have your old tower in hand.

I needed this Yakima replacement tower for a trip. Etrailer had one in stock and got it to me super fast. I was able to fix the roof rack and hullavator! Thanks so much.



by:

I bought this part to replace a broken Yakima Rack Tower on the family tent trailer. One of the towers has been broken for a couple years and finally gave out completely. After looking around, found this on etrailer.com, the price was right, so i ordered it. Part was delivered exactly when promised and it was exactly what I ordered (and needed!) Looked brand new to me and fit just as it should. I almost want to order 3 more now, as this one makes the other 3 look bad :-). I will certainly look to etrailer.com for any future camper needs!

I purchased a single Yakima 66" round cross bar and a pair of gutter mount towers.
The Yakima mega warrior cargo basket and cross bar set up I have was super easy to install, very user friendly. The extra cargo space is great,
Customer service at etrailer is great. Shipment of my order was slightly delayed. I was made aware of the shipping status by email consistently until I received the products. Answers to my questions we're prompt and courteous.

roof racks showed up in great condition, and showed up as one package.... I should have ordered the J racks from here but I found them cheaper locally so Thule J racks compliment the whole setup and i am just about ready to hit the water :)

I chose the Yakima A1 raingutter towers for mounting a 96" Yakima crossbar for my Humvee wildfire rig rooftop gear rack. The towers are sturdy and able to handle the constant jarring expected in wild land fire fighting in rugged terrain.



by:

Did an excellent job guys. The Yakima towers arrived on time and in good shape. Mounted right up to the canopy clips, installed the existing bars, kayak racks, and lock cores without any issues. All is ship-shape now. Will definitely come back to you guys again.

Thanks!

The customer service is exceptional. Nick went above and beyond getting the package out as well as dedicated follow-up. I will be ordering another roof rack for another vehicle. Even the return process was seamless thanks to Shelia. I ordered a tow hitch wiring harness a few months ago and received the same great service. Will continue to do business with etrailer.

Awesome Company!
In the time of COVID
doing business with this company was a great experience. I was kept informed by email by their CSR team as to when they would ship product and when it would arrive. Worked like a champ. Product fit my 1974 VW Baja as promised and now I can finally add the much needed Roof Rack System.
Thanks etrailer for being there and taking such care of your customers.

Yakima rack arrived a day earlier than expected. All the parts were there instructions were clear took about half hour to install. The rack is a little noisy at highway speed. Darn, guess I'll have to take the back roads! Thumbs up to both etrailer and Yakima.



by:

Got just what I ordered, quickly. Yakima rack system. For 2008 van, now I need to order one more set.

Fit and has done everything I’ve needed them to do. Good quality and I know that they will last many more years. Good job guys!!!

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch and Roof Rack for 1999 Ford E150 Superwagon
    The Draw-Tite Ultra Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 41906 is a fit for your 1999 Ford E-150 Superwagon. It is a fit for 1995-2003 Superwagon models and will install easily with the included hardware.

As you can see from the accompanying photo, which is from Yakima, this roof rack system will give your Gladiator a fantastic way to mount accessories like bike racks, kayak carriers or cargo boxes so you can get to your destination in style with all your needed gear.

I confirmed with my tech at Yakima that the Yakima 1A Raingutter Towers (QTY 4) # Y00101 fit these Kwik-Rail mounts. For theft-deterrence, I recommend the Yakima Same-Key Lock Cores # Y07204.

    Yakima refers to the part you're needing as a clip spacer for their 1A RainGutter Towers, part # Y00101. The replacement plastic clip spacers aren't available individually, they are included in the # Y8810136 replacement hardware bag, so potentially you could need both the # Y8810136 parts bag as well as the # Y8810008 replacement boots.

    All of the roof racks we offer for your 2022 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited with the sky top roof have a 100 lb dynamic (when in use on highway) roof capacity including the Yakima Round Bar Rack # Y00409 and # Y00101 as well as the Rhino Rack roof rack part # RRVA150S-2, # RL210S2, and # RRVA-FK1-2. In general I prefer the Rhino Rack as you get a higher quality roof rack that has aero shaped bars which do better with wind noise as a better price than the similar quality racks that cost a lot more.

  • Roof Rack for a 2012 Ford E-350 Passenger Van
    There are roof racks that will fit your 2012 Ford E-350, but the Swagman Roamer # S80510 you referenced is designed to work with camper or truck shells and not passenger vans, because it requires drilling into the roof and would be permanently mounted. The roof rack I recommend for your E-350 would be the Yakima rack, which consists of round, 66" crossbars # Y00410 and Yakima 1A Raingutter Towers # Y00101, which, as the name suggests, clamp on to the rain gutters of your van.

Unfortunately, I confirmed with Rhino-Rack that the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Legs - Gutter Mount - 8-1/4inch Tall # RL210S2 and the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA150B-2 are not confirmed to fit your 2019 Jeep Wrangler 4-door Unlimited with a Sky One Touch roof.

    I am happy to report that the hole spacing on Yakima Side Loader Mounting Bracket kit # Y08002 is indeed 4-1/8-inches center to center. Please refer to the linked photo. To complete a rack with these mounts you can use the 1A Raingutter Towers # Y00101, Lock Core kit # Y07204 and a set of Yakima round crossbars from the linked page. We have many lengths available, such as 58-inch bar set # Y00409. Other sizes are available too.

  • Compatible Rack For 2021 Rubicon With Sky One Touch And Yakima ShowDown Kayak Carrier
    If you want to operate your Sky One-Touch Power Roof on your 2021 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, Thule and Yakima both have a fit. Rhino-Rack does not have an option with the necessary clearance. The Yakima Raingutter Towers are only compatible with their round crossbars. The 58" crossbar length is a good choice because the Yakima ShowDown does require some crossbar to extend beyond the tower. This Yakima rack would consist of the following: Round 58" CrossBars for Yakima Roof Rack System (QTY...

  • How Do I Install the Replacement Clip for Yakima 1A Raingutter Tower # Y43FR?
    As far as the directions, Yakima only has instructions about how to mount the A1 Raingutters # Y00101 to the roof of your vehicle. I went ahead and attached those instructions for your convenience. Although, in order to install the replacement clip # Y43FR, you simply place the clip into place and then install the included rivet. Then, you attach the cap nut. I also attached a diagram that points to where this rivet/nut is located.

  • Can I Use Thule Rain Gutter Feet with Yakima Wide Body Artificial Rain Gutters
    I have a solution for you, but the Thule foot packs that attach to rain gutters like the # TH65BJ are only designed to fit on the Thule Artificial Rain Gutters # TH542. The Thule Rain gutter feet do work with most Thule crossbars, so you wouldn't need to get new bars in most cases, just the gutters and foot pack. With that say, if you wanted to use what's already there you can instead swap to Yakima Rain Gutter Towers # Y00101 and the Yakima Round Bars 48" # Y00408. Most roof boxes are...

  • Do Yakima Artificial Rain Gutters have to be Positioned in a Certain Place on a Truck Camper Shell
    When mounting artificial rain gutters like # Y08002 to a camper shell, there is no specific distance apart they must be placed. What you will want to look at is where you can mount them (the strongest points on the camper shell would be ideal) and how far apart you need them to mount various items like bike racks, canoes, kayaks, cargo boxes, baskets or any other accessory. Just remember that if you place the bars too far back then items on the roof may hang over the back end too much....

That said, if the roof is rated lower then that's the rating you'll need to abide by. This will be about the same a standard roof rack on a vehicle depending on which vehicle that is.

  • Do the Yakima Side Loader Mounting Brackets Have a Weight Capacity Rating
    The capacity of the Side Loader Mounting Brackets # Y08002 is going to be limited to the bar capacity or roof capacity, whichever is lower. In general, the raingutter feet, # Y00101, and crossbars will have a 165 pound capacity. You will need to consult the vehicle owners manual or manufacturer of the vehicle or item you are installing this on to determine the capacity of it. Always go by the lowest capacity.
