When you’re loading up kayaks, canoes, or camping gear, you need bars that can handle the weight and stay solid. These 58" long, 1-1/8" diameter galvanized steel crossbars form a sturdy backbone for your setup. The steel construction is built to carry up to 165 lbs, so you can haul your outdoor essentials with confidence on long trips or weekend adventures.
Constant exposure to rain and road grime can wear down metal fast. The black vinyl coating on these crossbars protects against corrosion and keeps them looking good over time. It’s a simple detail that makes a big difference when you’re hauling in all kinds of weather or storing the rack between seasons.
Fighting with complicated fit systems is no fun when all you want is a secure rack. This setup installs directly to your roof’s rain gutters using Yakima Raingutter towers and HiRise spacers for a tight, custom fit. Once it’s on, the rack stays put, giving you a stable base for your gear mile after mile.
When you leave your vehicle parked overnight or at a trailhead, protecting your rack matters. The towers are compatible with Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately), so you can lock everything down with one key system and add peace of mind to every trip.

I have included a picture of my 2008 Mitsubishi Eclipse, with the Yakima Q
System and Even-Keel Kayak saddles. I also used a stretch Kit, which I
picked up locally due to time constraints.
I'll be sure to keep you guys in mind when I am ready to get additional
parts for the system.
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.
I just finished installing the Yakima Roof rack - easy to follow instruction and great support via etrailer web site !
I did have one small issue with a missing piece BUT the tech/support staff at etrailer.com took care of the problem immediately and were very helpful - the missing piece arrived in about 2 days !
Super job to your great customer service !
Thank you !
These bars made my car look awesome and was really easy to instal
Thank you for the quick shipment of my new Yakima Q tower roof rack for my 2007 F150 King Ranch. Following the simple instructions it went together easily and works and looks great. The follow up after purchase has been great from etrailer and I felt like if there had been a problem they would have been there to help me through it.
Thank you!
Yakima roof rack on a 2009 Nissan Cube. It was very easy to assemble and install. Although I haven't carried anything on it as of yet I'm pleased with the fit. It makes a little wind noise but not terrible. Can't wait to try it out with my kayak mounted on it.
Bought the Yakima 58" round cross bars to use on a Leer Camper shell on my 2016 F150. The bars are a perfect width for my shell and work great with my existing Control towers. Great quality as to be expected with Yakima.
Typical Yakima cross bars. Coating is a little too easy to cut or gouge, but probably needs to be that way to get the grip it provides. Good enough solution for me, and allows me to continue to use all the attachments I've accumulated over the years that require a round bar
The only reason I am not giving it an excellent rating is the considerable wind noise that occurs. While we had our luggage carrier atop our car it seemingly imperceptible, however after driving around for a week while on vacation with simply the bars breaking the wind it was quite loud. With that being said they were a breeze to install, aside from having to use allen tool tighten down the fittings. I later discovered that a wratcheting screwdriver with the correct bit size provided for much faster installation and removal. I would definitely recommend for purchase.
This was my second large order from Etrailer.com and my wife I are VERY pleased! Our first order was a Curt 5th wheel hitch which performed as advertised - so easy to use.
Now we haul our 5th wheel camper and that takes up my entire full sized F250 truck bed which in turn messed up hauling the kayaks back there. I was leaning toward rigging something up on the back of the camper, saw lots of posts on how to many looked very sketchy. Rather than risk dumping our two $$$ fishing kayaks onto the highway.... somewhere..... we bought this GREAT Yakima roof rack system for the TOP of my truck cab. You see, it made me uneasy that I wouldn't be able to keep an eye on our boats if strapped to the back AND we read about many horror stories not limited to the rear bumper falling off from fatigue. Yakima Install; I'm a General Contractor and fancy myself a pretty handy guy so mounting the towers, the rack bars, and all of the accessories onto those took a total three hours. [on-line] videos very useful and follow the easy to read instructions that come with each part and you'll have NO trouble. I have to add, etrailer said it would take one week but I received the complete order within four days. Thank you etrailer for making the ordering through delivery experience so very streamlined!
The roof mounts were fairly easy to install with the help of the well written installation instructions. I am looking forward to using my new Yakima roof rack for hauling my ladders or a rooftop clamshell cargo bin that I have.
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!
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.
etrailer never disappoints! Every product I need, I check that etrailer has it before purchasing anywhere else. Thank you for the excellent service, the fast delivery, and the email updates on order status.
I received the Rain gutter riser, 66' round bars, boat loader and SKS lock cores all well packaged and in good shape. These are for a 2020 Jeep Wrangler JLU Rubicon. The products were easy to install and will work great for loading and transporting my Hobie Outfitter Kayak. The Outfitter is a heavy kayak at 75 lbs unloaded. The Yakama Boat loader makes it easy for one person to load and unload the kayak. The rain gutter mounts and round bars securely hold the kayak for transportation. When not transporting the kayak the whole system quickly removes.
A big plus with ordering through etrailer is the excellent custom service, they will be my go to for future orders.
Great first experience dealing with you guys! Shipped fast, and was a faster install. You gave me the right parts and it went together in a flash.
Will definitely be doing business with you all again.
I ordered a Yakima Roof Rack for my Toyota Prius from eTrailer.com. Part of the reason for purchasing from eTrailer.com was the promise that the racks were made specifically for the car and would not dent the roof.
I received the rack on July 31, and installed the racks on my Prius according to instructions included with the racks. Our tandem kayak is 65 lbs . The towers were placed on the outer most part of the roof as indicated by the instructions. Yakima saddles were attached to the crossbars to hold the kayak. Nothing was close or touching the top of the roof. We transported the kayak to a nearby lake, 6 miles, and back. The next day we removed the racks from the roof and noticed 4 dents on the top of the roof. It was obvious that transporting the kayak on the rack caused the dents.
We had to pay $100 to have the dents removed from the Prius roof.
I cannot continue to use this rack that puts dents in the car's roof. I was extremely disappointed in the racks. In reading the Toyota manual and contacting them by phone, there is no mention of using or not using roof racks.
I was shocked to learn from Rachel at eTrailer.com that your company takes absolutely no responsibility for this Yakima product they sell. The best they can do is to pass the buck and refer us to Yakima.
Very disappointed, and out a lot of money for a product that damages your car. Will not recommend or buy here again. eTrailer.com does not even deserve one star in this review.
Yakima Crossbars were as you would expect - steel bars coated in a soft black coating (be mindful when you are utilizing these with the top mounts as the clamp will eat through the soft coating when you tighten them down). I had issues with my yakima round bar setup as the brackets and tower system were allowing water to leak in. This is in no way reflective of what youll experience but Yakima has superb support. I spoke with them twice on my issue and out of their kindness they shipped me an entire setup to replace my existing one for free.
Thank again, etrailer. You always have what I’m looking for. I already had the bars, but I needed the towers.
I give it a five because it is exactly what I ordered. But I think the shipping was a little slow.
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 :)
A great company to do business with, and lots of merchandise in stock. I orderd a roof rack for my truck on Tuesday morning and it was on the porch when I returned from work on Thursday. I will deffinitely order more from etrailer.com
Works perfectly
Free delivery that showed up in 3 days!!! Can't beat it. The crossbars with the Control Towers and LandingPad 9 fit perfectly on my Honda Element. Had them installed in about 30 mins. Don't have my cargo box yet and wanted to test strength, so I had my 110lb wife standing on them with no issues (yes, the car was parked). Plan to take a long camping trip next week with a cargo box on top...wife will be in the vehicle:-)
I changed vehicles from a regular cab truck to a crew crab (both with a bump up topper). Using a Yakima rack with Q towers for canoes, this caused the bow to crash with the roof. The Yakima risers were exactly what was needed to raise the canoe above the cab roof. Remove rivets with a rotary tool and the supplied hardware is all that was needed to raise the crossbars.
