Malone SteelTop Roof Rack Loading Diagram

Malone SteelTop Roof Rack

The Malone SteelTop roof rack lets you carry gear and accessories on the roof of your vehicle with raised, factory side rails. This complete roof rack system includes 2 steel, square crossbars and 4 towers. The bars are compatible with most universal, clamp-on accessories and carriers, and the towers have built-in locks to protect the rack from theft. The rack clamps onto your raised side rails and tightens down with the included tool, so it's easy to remove and install.


Strong, Steel Crossbars

Malone SteelTop Crossbar without Endcap

The durable crossbars are made of steel and have a black vinyl coating to protect them from corrosion and keep them looking new. The bars also have plastic endcaps to protect the interiors from the elements and to give your roof rack a finished look.


Durable Towers with Built-In Security

Malone SteelTop Roof Rack Towers

The towers are made of molded nylon that won't fade or wear down when exposed to the elements. Each tower includes a nylon cover with a built-in lock to deter would-be thieves from removing the rack from your roof. The covers also protect the towers' interior and hardware from the elements.


Easy Installation with Rubber-Coated Steel Clamps

Malone SteelTop Roof Rack Rubber Clamps

The towers attach to your vehicle's raised, factory side rails with rubber-coated steel clamps. The rubber coating provides a superior grip on your side rails and protects them from damage during installation and use.


Malone SteelTop Roof Rack Installation Tool

To tighten, simply turn the bolt inside the tower assembly with the included installation tool until the clamps are snug.


Malone SteelTop Roof Rack Rubber Spacer Blocks

Rubber spacer blocks are included to fit smaller side rails. If the clamps don't tighten enough to your side rails, just slide a spacer block onto the clamps before tightening them.


Once assembled, the towers and crossbars stay together as one unit, which makes removing, storing, and reinstalling the system a snap. To remove, simply remove the cover and loosen the bolts inside the towers with the installation tool.

  • Availability of Feet of Malone 50 inch Square Roof Rack for 2018 Toyota RAV4
    Malone has a 50 inch square bar roof rack that fits your 2018 Toyota Rav4 with raised rails with the part # MPG201. Sounds like you just need the feet of this rack which for that you'd just need the part # MAL25YR.

  • Cost Effective Black Roof Rack for a 2020 Infiniti QX50 with Raised Side Rails
    The roof rack options we currently have in black for a 2020 Infiniti QX50 with factory raised side rails is the Malone SteelTop Roof Rack part # MPG201 and the Curt Roof Rack for Raised Side Rails part # C18118. The Malone roof rack has a higher weight capacity at 165 lbs so that is what I recommend.

  • Economic Roof Rack and Canoe Carrier Compatible with 2019 Subaru Forester
    The Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack 58" # MPG216 or the 50 inch # MPG215 are aero style roof racks that will fit your 2019 Subaru Forester. I would lean toward the longer option, but recommend you check the width of your canoe to determine your need. You can alternatively use the steel square bar # MPG201 or # MPG202 for a more economical option but I recommend upgrading for the minor price difference to reduce wind noise and give you the top channel mount for compatible accessories. For your...

  • Does Malone Roof Rack MPG201 Fit 2016 Jeep Cherokee with Raised Rails and Fit Rhino Rack Ski Rack

  • How to Use Rhino Rack Kayak Carrier part # S512-S512X on Roof of 2001 Nissan Xterra
    Since the factory crossbars of your 2001 Nissan Xterra are much thicker than standard crossbars you'll have to install a roof rack to the roof of the vehicle so that you can carry the Rhino Rack Carrier part # S512-S512X that you referenced. For that we have the very economical, solid, and easy to use Malone rack part # MPG201 which will easily solve that problem! There are no carriers that will fit your bars directly since they are so much larger than typical.

  • Malone Roof Rack Vs. Thule Roof Rack
    The Malone Universal Crossbar System # MPG201 is a more economical choice but it still does a good job. The design and quality of Thule's system is why they have such a large difference in price. Whether you go with the Thule Crossroads system # TH712400 and TH450R (discontinued) or Thule Evo system # TH712400 and # TH710401 they both are going to be a high quality roof rack system. The Thule racks both have a weight capacity of 220 lbs compared to Malones 165 lbs capacity. You should...

These will work well on your 2017 Jeep Cherokee with factory installed side rails.

  • Why are the Malone SteelTop # MPG203 Not Confirmed to Fit My 2020 Toyota 4Runner with Raised Rails?
    I have a fitment answer for you. The reason why the Malone SteelTop Roof Rack - Square Crossbars - Raised, Factory Side Rails - Steel - 65" Long # MPG203 is not listed as a confirmed fit for your vehicle is because the 65" length of the crossbars are deemed far too long for your 2020 Toyota 4Runner Limited with raised factory rails. This is why the SteelTop 50" # MPG201 and SteelTop 58" # MPG202 are confirmed fits. You are right that the towers # MAL25YR will fit your vehicle. Also, another...

  • Which Roof Rack to Carry Kayak on 2012 VW Jetta Sports Wagon with Factory Side Rails
    If your Jetta SportWagon has factory siderails but no crossbars, I can offer a low-cost option that can accommodate one kayak of 16 to 24 inch width without the need to purchase crossbars or other hardware, but please note that we have no kayak carriers that can mount directly to your side rails. The Malone Deluxe Roof-Mount Kayak Carrier, part # MPG152, is a complete yet simple transport system. This product uses foam blocks to protect both your kayak and your vehicle roof, and includes...

  • Recommended Roof Rack and Cargo Box for a 2022 Subaru Outback Wilderness
    Yes, it will! The Thule Motion XT Rooftop Cargo Box item # TH629806 will have no issue mounting to square crossbars like the Malone item # MPG201. The only concern would be the rear hatch opening. You need to have the front crossbar 51-1/4" from the line where the roof and hatch meet for it to open fully. If you're just using the crossbars for a cargo box, I recommend going with the shortest ones available for your Outback which would be the 50" item # MPG201. If you are wanting to throw...

  • Can Thule Hullavator Pro Fit on Square Malone Crossbars

  • Solution for Wind Noise with the Malone Roof Rack part # MPG201
    Roof racks can add some wind noise. Luckily there is a solution for that. If you install a wind fairing you'll direct the air over the bars and the noise will go away. For a fairing to use with the Malone roof rack part # MPG201 the part # INA261 would be what you need. You can also try moving the bars further back on your rack to see if that helps too.

  • Compatibility of Malone Steeltop Roof Rack and Rooftop Tent
    The Malone SteelTop Roof Rack - Square Crossbars - 50" Long # MPG201 are comparable to most roof rack systems with a capacity of 165 lbs max and minimum crossbar spread of 24 inches. The rooftop tents like the Yakima SkyRise Tent for Roof Rack Crossbars - 2 Person - 400 lbs # Y07436 or 3 person # Y07437 distribute the weight differently than most other roof mounted accessories due to the stabilizing ladder and tray. The weight of the 3 person tent for traveling is just 120 lbs and the...

  • Would Malone Square Crossbars Fit into Thule Podium Square Bar Feet
    The Thule square crossbars and the Malone crossbars are the same width and height at 1-1/4 inches wide by 7/8 inches tall. There's no reason the Malone bar wouldn't fit into the older Thule square Podium feet but you should note that it's never been officially tested so you'd be accepting that risk and not have any warranty coverage.

  • Replacement Towers for Malone Square Bar Roof Rack # MPG201

  • Will Malone SteelTop Roof Rack # MPG201 Fit 2014 VW Jetta SportWagen to Secure Thule Box
    Yes, the Malone SteelTop Roof Rack # MPG201 that you referenced is confirmed to fit your 2014 VW Jetta SportWagen with the raised side rails and it will work perfectly. The square crossbars will indeed allow you to mount your existing Thule cargo box along with just about any other roof-mounted accessory you might accumulate down the line. The included feet with this rack will mount right to those raised side rails and the bars will provide you with a 165 pound weight capacity. I have...

  • Could Malone SteelTop Roof Rack # MPG201 Carry Roof Rack Tent
    The Malone SteelTop Roof Rack # MPG201 that you referenced has a dynamic capacity of 165 lbs which is different from the capacity needed for a roof top tent as that would be static weight. Dynamic in this situation means the capacity it can carry while on the road which will have bumps and dips that will exaggerate the weight on the rack. So the standard way to determine if you'd have the capacity needed will be to contact the roof top tent manufacturer as they normally have a formula...

  • Will a Yakima SkyBox Cargo Box Fit the Factory Roof Rack on a 2011 Toyota Highlander
    I checked with Yakima and they do not list any cargo boxes as a fit for the factory roof rack on the 2011 Toyota Highlander. There are some factory crossbars that are too flimsy to properly support a loaded cargo box. I have heard of this issue on some GM vehicles as well. You have some options though. You could add aftermarket crossbars but this does add quite a bit more to the grand total and the one set listed for your Highlander has parts that have been or are going to be discontinued. However,...

  • Recommended Roof Rack Option for 2013 Toyota Sienna
    The most cost effective roof rack option for your 2013 Toyota Sienna is the Malone SteelTop, part # MPG201. It's a square bar rack with 50 inch long crossbars. The square bars are a very universal and traditional size and design so a number of roof top accessories will fit.

  • Roof Rack for 2017 Volvo XC90 with Raised Roof Rails
    For your 2017 XC90 with raised roof rails the roof rack I recommend to meet your preferences for good quality, value and longer bar size is the Yakima CoreBar system that is made of parts # Y00422 and # Y33TR. This rack features 60-inch aerodynamic bars that will make less wind noise than other types and it has a 165-lb weight rating on your XC90. An example installation can be seen by clicking on the video link provided.

  • Replacement Roof Rack For A 2007 Saab 9-3
    I do have an option for you to consider however, we currently do not sell replacement hardware for a factory roof rack. I recommend replacing crossbars with a new system such as the Malone SteelTop Universal Roof Rack for Raised Side Rails part # MPG201. The Malone rack system is an extremely affordable option that will accept most aftermarket square bar rooftop accessories. I have included a video review of this crossbars for you.

  • Roof Rack Crossbars and Tent Recommended for 2016 Subaru Crosstrek and 2012 Toyota Highlander
    For a vehicle roof tent made for a US spec vehicle you will want to choose one that is primarily supported by uprights that make contact with the ground. The reason is that in the US the vehicle roofs and roof racks do not have high enough weight capacity ratings to support the whole weight of the tent and occupants. But we do have some options that fit this description. First, you will need crossbars. For your 2016 Subaru Crosstrek you can use Malone roof rack # MPG201. This is a basic...

  • Square Bar Roof Rack Options for a 2014 Subaru Impreza with Raised Rails
    While we do have some crossbar systems that are compatible with the raised rails on your 2014 Subaru Impreza, the only leg system that would be compatible with a square-bar system is the Thule Evo Raised Rail Feet # TH710401, but these are only compatible with the Thule SquareBar Crossbars # TH712400. If you have something else I cannot guarantee that this will work. so your options would either be to purchase this new Thule roof rack system OR we have the Malone square bar roof racks...
