The Yakima BaseLine FX Roof Rack keeps things clean and simple with a flush design that matches the roofline. Nothing sticks out past the towers, so you get that streamlined, factory look without bulky bar ends. It gives your setup a solid, professional finish that feels like it was built in, not bolted on.
Road trips are a lot more peaceful when your roof rack isn’t humming along. These aerodynamic aluminum crossbars are shaped to cut through the air and reduce drag. Push-down rubber strips in the top channels help seal out wind, cutting down on noise and vibration while you drive. The result is a much quieter ride when you’re loaded up and cruising down the highway.
From kayaks to cargo boxes to bike mounts, this rack’s aero-style crossbars handle it all. The top channels fit channel-mount accessories, while the bar shape works great with clamp-on attachments. You don’t have to pick one system or buy new mounts—the versatility makes it easy to swap gear for whatever’s next on your adventure list.
Whether you’re hauling a couple of paddleboards or packing heavy camping gear, strength matters. These aluminum bars and integrated towers give you a sturdy platform that supports up to 165 lbs when used within your vehicle’s roof load limits. It’s built to handle the weight without flexing or wobbling, so you can hit the road with confidence.
When your rack stays on your vehicle full time, adding security is a smart move. The BaseLine FX works with Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores, sold separately, so you can lock both the rack and any channel-mount accessories using a single key. It’s an easy way to keep your setup safe when you leave your gear behind.

I'm a repeat customer at etrailer several times now, and with good reason. They have provided what I needed in terms of both product and assistance reliably and promptly. The best online supplier I have found.
The clips are very easy to install and good fit on my 2020 Ram 1500.
Rack is still on the car one year later. Yakima doesn’t have a replacement cover for the tower, which is flimsy.
Awesome system. Was extremely easy to put together and to space out with the given tools and equipment.
The team is amazing, fast, and responsive! 10/10 will be ordering again from here for all my needs.
I was able to use these clips to mount a roof rack and roof box on my Audi that had a naked roof, and they did the job! I took it on a 1,200 mile road trip and after I returned there wasn’t any damage to the paint, and even though there are rubber inserts on the inside of the clip to prevent scratches I was still a bit surprised.
If you don’t have roof rails on your car, these definitely help!

I was converting a roof rack from my Jeep Cherokee (factory rails) to my RAM 2500 truck (naked roof). While I could use my old Jetstream crossbars, I needed new towers and clips for the truck. There was an error in my original order, the representative thought she was sending me two pairs of clips. I understand the mixup because the Clip box said two meaning 2 clips rather than two pair. etrailer sent another pair immediately and waived the shipping. I like customer service is available and knowledgable. I would give them a five if they hadn't mixed up the first order.
I was in dire need of finding a cross bar system to mount a 18cu foot Yakima cargo carrier for an upcoming camping trip and etrailer did me an enormous favor by using there website to find the correct system for my 2018 Toyota Camry. I was very pleased that the website confirmed the fitment and provided the whole kit with not just the towers and cross bars but also the clips to mount to a naked roof. So far the mounting was pretty straightforward as long as you follow the directions thoroughly. I drove 5 hours through a wind storm in SoCal with a box mounted and the system held up perfectly fine with no issues or hiccups. 10/10 recommend.
Awesome! Thank you!
Great quality and extremely durable. Still have them on my car a full year later.
Worked well with install of rack system. Protected vehicle finish during install and no issues after install. Recommend this product.
Roof rack fits and works as advertised. Over the phone customer support for sales and install directions were very helpful and thorough. Geoff is an excellent brand ambassador who goes above and beyond to fulfill customer expectations. I will definitely be shopping at etrailer for my future vehicle needs. Well done!
One year later and everything works well. I had a problem early on where the rubber protection for one of the j clips from the base towers came off. Contacted etrailer and they sent me a whole new assembly direct from Yakima. Thanks for the prompt response and service!
