• Best Way to Transport 4 Kayaks on 2015 Chevy Traverse
  Without knowing the length of the crossbars and the weight of the kayaks, I would have some doubts that you're going to be able to carry 4 kayaks on the roof of a 2015 Chevy Traverse-but if you were going to do it the Thule Stacker # TH830 would be the way to go since they don't take up a ton of space. You're going to need roughly 50" (the Stacker takes up about 3" of bar space) of crossbar space to successfully do this. I would also recommend checking your owner's manual to find out the...

• Recommended Roof Racks for a 2017 Chevrolet Traverse
  I am not sure what you mean by channels. The 2017 Chevrolet Traverse has two options of roofs: one with flush rails and the other with a naked roof. If you have the flush rails, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars, part # RRVA137B-2. These are aero-style crossbars, so they are compatible with most accessories while cutting down on wind drag and noise. They're 54" long and have a weight capacity of 165 pounds. I've linked to a video review of these for you to look at. To attach...

• Roof Rack Set Up For Carrying A Thule Hullavator On A 2017 Chevy Traverse
  Hi Michael! To get a Thule Hullavator # TH898 on your 217 Chevy Traverse, you will need a roof rack set up that has the crossbars extend 4 to 8 inches past the towers. I believe the C channels you mentioned are flush mounted rails running along the roof? If they are, I put together a custom roof rack set up that would give you 59" crossbars (the ones typically used are 54"). This will give you plenty of room for the Hullavator!

• Roof Rack for 2014 Chevy Traverse that Has Capacity for Roof Top Tent
  This is a really good question. So the roof rack capacities we list like for the Rhino Rack that fits your 2014 Chevy Traverse # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK297 the number is a dynamic rating meaning when the vehicle is on the road hitting bumps which will exaggerate the weight carried. This is why roof rack tent manufacturers will say that the rack the tent is used on needs to have a dynamic rating of at least 165 lbs to be able to carry the fully weight of the tent plus people.

• Roof Weight Capacity of 2010 Chevy Traverse with Flush Mounted Rails
  Generally speaking, most vehicle roofs can handle between 100 and 150 lbs, but I'd recommend checking with the owner's manual or with Chevy. Although the Rightline # RL100S20 has the ability to strap directly to the roof by running the straps through the interior of the vehicle, I prefer to see a roof rack used as an attachment point. Running the mounting straps through the vehicle compromises head room and can allow water to wick into the interior of the vehicle if it should rain. Rhino...

• How to Use the Thule Hullavator on a 2014 Chevrolet Traverse
  In order to use the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier part # TH898 on your 2014 Chevrolet Traverse I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbar System which is composed of part # RRVA150B-2, part # RRRLKVA, and part # DK297. The Vortex Aero Crossbars will create less wind noise/drag than square bar systems. I like Rhino-Rack because they offer the same quality as other brands such as Thule and Yakima but at a much more affordable price. They also include locks whereas most other manufacturers...

• Crossbar Extender Type Solution to Make Loading Kayaks Easier
  So the longest crossbar roof rack we have for your 2014 Chevy Traverse with flush rails is the Rhino Rack Vortex rack part numbers # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK297 which is 54 inches long. One solution that I think you'd like is the Rhino Rack Universal Load Assist part # RR-RUSL which temporarily attaches to a crossbar to extend it and gives you a pivot point for making loading the kayak a bit easier. If you check out the review video link I attached you'll see more info.

• Roof Rack Recommendation for 2015 Chevy Traverse with Flush Rails
  We have fits for aftermarket parts for your 2015 Chevy Traverse but not for OEM parts, particularly transferring from one vehicle to another. There is also no 2008 Traverse because model years began in 2009. You would be better off in every way simply adding an aftermarket roof rack because they are higher in quality and allow you the use of more and better accessories than a factory rack. For a '15 Traverse with flush-mounted rails that run front to back, which is what I would assume...

For a roof rack that is confirmed to fit your 2014 Chevrolet Traverse, I recommend the Rhino Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack that consists of parts # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA and # DK297.

• How To Store 4 Snowbaords On The Yakima FreshTrack Ski/Snowboard Carrier
  To store 4 snow boards with the Yakima FreshTrack 6 Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking # Y03093, you can either store them side by side, or if they are too wide, you'll have to stack them on top of each other in pairs. Additionally, this carrier will need to be installed on a set of crossbars. If you do not have a set of crossbars already, I recommend checking out the: -Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA137B-2 with the Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRRLKVA,...

• How to Add Longer Crossbars to 2016 Chevy Traverse with Factory Crossbars
  I have an option that will allow you to install longer crossbars on your 2016 Chevy Traverse, but we don't have a roof rack that would use your factory flush rails for the attachment points. The solution would be to use the Rhino-Rack Custom DK Fit Kit # DK297, along with the Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA. This system would bypass your factory rails, and fit over them, using a clamp-style attachment to secure itself onto your vehicle's roof. With those in place, you can choose...

• Need a Roof Rack System that will fit a 2012 Chevrolet Traverse and 2007 Mazda CX-7
  I spoke to my contact at Rhino Rack and our best recommendation for a roof rack would be the 2500 Series Roof Rack System. By using this system, two of the three components would work on both the 2012 Chevrolet Traverse and the 2007 Mazda CX-7.

• Recommendation for Carrying 5 Bikes on a 2010 Chevrolet Traverse without a Trailer Hitch
  The safest and easiest way to carry 5 bikes with your 2010 Chevrolet Traverse would be to add a trailer hitch and use a hitch mounted bike rack for 5 bikes. If you do not want to add a trailer hitch, then you will need to use a combination of a trunk mounted bike rack and roof mounted bike racks or store some bikes in the rear cargo area of your vehicle. Trunk mounted bike racks can only support up to 3 bikes. Our most popular trunk mounted bike rack is the Thule OutWay 3 Bike Rack, #...
