Glad we had what you were needing, Benjamin! What will you be carrying on your roof?

by:
Bryan was very helpful. Help me select the right combination of Yakima gear to go together. The 78 inch crossbars worked perfectly on my F150.The order arrived early and was useful so I could get ready for my trip.

This is the second set of #7 landing pads I’ve installed on my vehicles and they work well.

Fits nicely into the slot as designed for the 2023 Yukon.
It’s Easier to remove these Yakima skyline towers. Locks are a must for peace of mind in case one of these hinging clamps opened on the highway (very unlikely but a lock would prevent that completely.)
I do wish it was a little smaller profile, but it’s pretty good for a Yakima product.
by:
I have these installed on a 2022 Honda Pilot. I could not get them to fit on my raised roof rails with the included rubber gaskets. I have mounted them without the gasket but this leaves a gap between the rail and the landing pad. This seems secure but does not have a finished look. I will be trying to see how to get the gaskets to fit.

You definitely want to use the gaskets and I dont recommend using the crossbars without them. Here is an install video that might help you out with this part. Let us know if you still some assistance after watching.

eTrailer comes through again! These number # 26 Yakima landing pads are riding in t-slot rails of my RetraxPro XR tonneau bed cover. They are the landing pads for my Yakima SkyLine towers and Yakima Corebar cross-bars. I’ve attached pics. Glad I had a Park Tool ATD-1 Torque wrench with a 5mm hex bit to secure these pads at the recommended 4nm. I selected the # 26 landing pads instead of the # 1 pads so I have the option to upgrade to the Yakima HD bars later for a higher load capacity.

A good product. Very easy to install. I installed them in about 15 mins. They fit secure to the Highlander rail system. No gaps. The caps stay on going thru the car wash. They raise the bars up high enough so the sun roof can be opened all the way with rack accessories. I have an existing skyline system with 66" round bars from my previous truck that I purchased in 2005. The existing system matched the landing pads perfect. I am not sure if I will shorten the bars or not yet.
by:
Everything was easy to set up and works perfect! I love being able to take off the roof racks when not in use, it’s extremely easy and convenient.

I recently purchased a rack system for my 1979 Ford Bronco to haul our new Kayaks. And believe me it was not easy to "fit" a vehicle as old as this.

I had some interesting challenges - my truck has a 3" lift and only clears my garage entrance by about 1.5 inches, so whatever I got had to be easily removable (at least in the front). I also wanted it to be multi functional so that I could carry other stuff as well, and the Yakima/Thule systems are great for that. Lastly, I wanted whatever I put on the truck to look good as I have put a lot of time and $ into fixing up this old truck and I didn't want it to look cheezey.....

Thanks to the good folks at etrailer I ended up with somewhat of a hybrid approach (my choice) but it worked out exactly as I envisioned it. I purchased the Thule Xsporter Pro system for the rear which works well with only minor modifications to the truck. I can lower it easily so I can get the truck into the garage without removing the system altogether. I really like that the tailgate is still functional with the system installed as some others I had in mind were bumper or hitch attached and would not allow use of the tailgate.... And, lastly it looks nice enough to just leave it on all the time.

On the front I chose the Yakima JetStream cross bar held up by a pair of Yakima SkyLine Towers and Landing Pads which I chose because I can easily remove the crossbar/towers to get the truck into my garage. The Landing Pads have covers for when not in use and are small enough to not be too noticeable.

I also added the security locks for peace of mind.

I have added 3 pictures, the first shows the Landing Pads without the towers & crossbar. You can also see the Xsporter Pro on the rear in its lowered position. The 2nd shot is a closeup of the Skyline Tower. The 3rd picture shows the entire system installed ready for my kayaks (or whatever).

Thanks again to the folks at etrailer for their expert advice and customer service.

Ive had the rail system on my truck for about a year now and its been a tremendous help. It allows me to still use my bed and provides much needed extra storage space, mostly for all the dog items we carrycrates, gates, beds, food, etc. I like the fact the rail locks to the truck so I dont need to remove them at home or at our destination.

2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee
My 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee used landing pads 18 to mount to the roof my newer 2023 JGC uses landing pad 19. I was able to change the pads thanks to etrailer and install my older roof rack on my newer Jeep. I love that the majority of my roof rack is upgrade-able.
by:
Honestly, I love etrailer. I love the expert help that you all provide. It's clear by the 1 year follow-ups that you care more about the relationships with your customers then just making a sale. Your service is friendly, informative and fast. I always come here first to look for my next purchase. Thanks again-Rob.

My experience with etrailer has been excellent. There was going to be a potential delay in one of the products, but their customer service promptly informed me, half the price of some of their competitors so can't really complain. In the end they got the part ahead of schedule and was able to ship in a timely manner. I will definitely keep them in mind for future purchases.
by:
Fit good with the OE track on roof. I like the new covers they supplied with the mounts.
by:
These landing pads allow for the quickest and easiest install and removal of cross bars. This will be the only ones I use going forward.
by:
Bought these landing pads (and towers) for both our Outback and Rav4. We shuttle our Yakima rack between the two, depending on the need. We mount both a Thule pod and a Roofnest Meadowlark on the rack with no problem. Once these pads and towers are permanently installed, it takes about one minute to install or remove the rack. Great system, highly recommended.
by:
Great quality! They come with two different style bases. One flat, and one that is stepped to account for the raised area near the gutter trim. Good variety of screws to meet your application. My 2015 Mazda 3 (with fixed points) needed the medium length screws. Seems very solid!
I left the plastic gutter moldings on and just drilled holes for the screws to go through.
by:
Amazing quality easy set up fast shipping buy the locks the 4 pack With this fast shipping super impressed
by:
Very happy with our purchase. I love how easily you can remove the entire rack easily. Too bad the locking mechanism comes separately but we are still happy with what we received.

The rack base has worked perfectly. I took my Yakima rack off my Tacoma and transferred it to a Honda Pilot and eTrailer had the correct bracket.

by:
The item does not have much heft and therefore does not give me confidence that it will not fail. Additionally the pcs that go on the rear did not fit quite right. They were about 2mm off to one side of the installation space.

I have used the landing pads with a fully loaded basket and awning. We went on a road trip from Rialto, CA to Los Cabos San Lucas, BC with no signs of failure. I guess, dont judge a book by its covers. Well designed. Thats 1100 miles one way. Some parts of the roads were not that great but everything held up.

  • 2007 Jeep Commander with Flush Rails Roof Rack Recommendation
    For an aero bar roof rack that fits the flush rails of your 2009 Jeep Commander I'd recommend the Yakima CoreBar kit part # Y00422, # Y53TR, and # Y00225. This fits directly to the flush rails on your vehicle roof, gives you aero shaped bars which minimize wind noise, and aren't nearly as expensive as some of the other kits.
