Yes, The Yakima roof rack has been working flawlessly. I did have one issue where one of the landing pad covers flew off that I had to replace. I understand parts wear and plastic gets brittle and/or shrinks with time in the sun, but that shouldn't have happened so soon. Other than that, we bought a Thule Motion XT box to use for long travels.

by: Karen H 07/08/2019 One Year Later

The Yakima Landing Pads are an essential component of the rack system in use on my vehicle. They are paired perfectly with the rest of the system and were easily installed and removed at the end of seasonal use-- though they could easily remain a permanent installation. The items are excellently constructed and have weathered their heavy use with no evidence of wear.

by: Evan D. 03/08/2017 One Year Later

These installed easily and look nice. I didn't get the feeling that the mounting was quite rock-solid, although in fairness there's only so much that can be done given that they're at the mercy of the built-in Subaru mount points.

With that said, I've carried things like plywood multiple times without incident (where the concern is the sheet acting like a sail and lifting up rather than pushing down), so they've done their job so far.

Appreciate that this company had a # 15 Yakima landing pad set available for a very reasonable price. Order came through quickly and I'm back in business with a 2018 Subaru Outback using my older Yakima "towers" , bars and kayak saddles.
Thanks guys!

2016 Subaru Outback Wagon

The rack system is nice, however, there are four plastic covers when the racks are not in use and one of them (front driver's side) will just not stay in place. Unfortunately, that means that the rain and weather will probably damage the uncovered parts.

The Landing Pad 15 was exactly what I needed for 2019 Subaru Outback Yakima Sky Line Towers. I am 5'3" older lady and was able to install the entire system with Jet Stream crossbars without assistance, thanks to videos. (Yakimas instructions are photo only). But I really want to commend your company on the website, shipping, video tutorials, personalized communication, and follow up. Great job etrailer!

gmc Yukon

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: John 10/11/2022

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.

2020 Toyota Highlander

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.

1979 Ford Bronco

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.

Can Thule Hullavator Install on Yakima Crossbars
The Thule Hullavator Pro # TH898 can fit round bars by grabbing around the crossbar and can fit aero shaped bars if the bars have a channel on top of them. Which the Yakima aero shaped bars don't have top channels so to go the Yakima route will require round bars which includes the part numbers # Y00408, # Y53TR, # Y03536, and # Y00241 and you'd be set.

Recommended Yakima Roof Rack Upgrade for Subaru Factory Roof Rack
The factory roof rack on the 2016 Subaru Outback Wagon has minimal options to fit the factory roof rack which is different than the factory side rails or flush mounted rails. You can use the Landing Pad 15 for Yakima Control Towers - Qty 4 # Y00241 which will allow you to simply remove your factory crossbars and mount these pads in their place. Then you can use the SkyLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y53TR and round bar adapter # Y03536 if you want to use round bars like the 48 inch...

Can I Use the Same Yakima Landing Pad on my 2025 Subaru Outback That I Used on My 2019
That's a great question, Maryann! No, you can't use your existing Yakima Landing Pad 15 # Y00241 on your 2025 Subaru Outback Wagon. Instead, you would need to get the Yakima Landing Pad 27 # Y46VR. You will still be able to use your SkyLine Towers # Y53TR and just swap them out for the Landing Pad 27. Congrats on the new Subaru! What are you usually carrying on the roof?

Will Thule Hullavator Fit a Yakima Roof Rack on a 2018 Subaru Outback
The Thule Hullavator, # TH898, will fit on a Yakima roof rack so if you like the spacing and looks of the Yakima racks you can certainly go that route for your 2018 Subaru Outback. With the Hullavator the roof rack crossbars need to stick out past the mounting feet by at least 4 inches. What this means you will need to use longer bars than what would normally be recommended for the vehicle. If you go with a round bar system then you will need the following parts: Crossbars # Y00409 SkyLine...

Low Profile Roof Rack and Cargo Box to Carry Skis on a 2018 Subaru Outback Wagon
I went out to our warehouse to measure a lot of the kits available to you.

The lowest profile kit is the Yakima JetStream, standing at 4-1/2 inches tall. You will need the same mounting kit regardless of what length bar, which consists of: - Yakima SkyLine Towers, part # Y53TR - Yakima LandingPad 15, part # Y00241 What's nice is...

Will The Yakima Landing Pad For 2018 Subaru Outback Work On A 2025 Outback?
Hello Joe, thanks for reaching out. I am sorry to say that the Yakima landing pad for the 2018 Subaru Outback will not carry over to the 2025 model. The 2018 Outback uses the 8000241 Landing Pad 15. The 2025 model uses the 8000254 Yakima Landing Pad 27. Both pads work with the Timber Line towers, so as long as that is what you have, you can re-use them. You will need the new 8000254 landing pad part # Y46VR for the 2025 model. You should be able to re-use your crossbars too. We recommend...

How To Install the Landing Pad 15 On a 2015 Subaru Outback

This process is done entirely outside the vehicle so you don't have to remove the headliner or anything like that.

Thule Hullavator Kayak Carrier Mounting Requirements
To install Thule's load-assist Hullavator kayak carrier # TH898 on a vehicle's roof rack the ends of the bars must extend out past the roof rack feet by at least 4-inches. You can see this requirement illustrated in the linked diagram. The comparable Yakima ShowDown carrier # Y04081 also has a similar bar space requirement. If your roof rack is a Subaru factory type whose bars do not extend past the rack feet/rails then you can still use the Hullavator but you'll need to add a different...

As for the length of the bars, I do recommend using the 60" Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00426 to ensure you have the needed space to use your Hullavator. The rest of the parts...

Can I Use Crossbars That Are Wider Than My 2019 Subaru Outback?
As long as your 2019 Subaru Outback Wagon has the factory side rails running front to back, then you can install longer Yakima crossbars. The 78" crossbars may be too wide since you do not want to exceed the total width of your vehicle (due to safety and state laws). It looks like your vehicle is about 73" wide so I recommend cutting the 78" bars down to fit your vehicle's width. The complete kit is as follows: Round 78" CrossBars # Y00411, RidgeLine Towers # Y00145, Adapter # Y03536,...
