• Roof Rack For 2020 Chevy Equinox With Naked Roof
  We do have a roof rack system that will fit your 2020 Chevy Equinox beautifully, even without it having any rails or other mounting spots. Your Equinox has what is referred to as a naked roof, and there is one option I really like for your Equinox, which is from Rhino-Rack. The parts that make up the rack and fit your car are the following: - Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2 - Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA - Custom DK Fit Kit # DK488 The reason I like the Rhino-Rack...

• Best Roof Rack For 2020 Ford Edge With Glass Vista Roof and Flush Mount Rails
  For the 2020 Ford Edge With Glass Vista Roof and Flush Mount Rails I recommend the Rhino Rack roof rack part # RRVA126B-2, and # RRSX024. The aerodynamic shape of the crossbars along with the Vortex strips in the C-channels significantly cut down on wind noise. The roof rack is compatible with the glass vista roof on the Edge but I do not recommend opening the sunroof while carrying cargo on the roof rack to avoid damage. Even when you are not carrying cargo and open the sun roof with...

• Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Compatible with 2016 Volvo XC90 Spoiler
  On your 2016 Volvo XC90 if you have a roof rack you can use the Hollywood Racks Over-The-Top Trunk Bike Rack # HRF2 or # HRF2-3. I confirmed this with the manufacturer. We don't list the fit in our guide because it requires the rails for a fit. If you don't have a roof side rails then you will need to add a roof rack to your flush mounted rails to use that rack. The # RRVA126B-2 and # RRSX040 are my recommendation. If you have the raised factory side rails then you don't need to add...

• Troubleshooting Plastic Endcaps That Won't Stay In Place On Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbars
  Regarding the endcaps popping out on your Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - 49" # RRVA126B-2, this is not a common occurrence and I have not heard of this happening before. Make sure the rubber strip, or anything else for that matter, is not getting caught between the crossbar and endcap. Then make sure you are fully pushing the plastic endcaps into place and locking them all the way with the included key. If you are still having issues then let me know and we can dig deeper into the issues...

• What are the Differences Between Roof Bag on Naked Roof and Roof Rack Mounted Bag?
  Apart from how the rooftop bags mount there is little difference between the cargo bags that go on the naked roof of your 2013 Kia Soul or one that attaches to a roof rack. To avoid having to put a pricey roof rack on your Soul, I strongly recommend going with a bag that mounts to your naked roof such as the Rightline Gear Sport 2 Rooftop Cargo Bag # RL100S20. This bag is waterproof, has 15 cubic feet of storage and is 44" long x 36" wide x 19" tall. You can mount the Rightline by running...

• Roof Rack Fit for 2013 Volkswagen Touareg With Roof Rails and Sun Roof
  There is definitely a solution for you, though it could be that you have a sun roof and not a moon roof. This matters in terms of fit, because a moon roof slides into a cavity in the roof and does not extend above it, while a sun roof generally does extend above it. Due to this, the rack you mentioned, Rhino Rack # RRVA126B-2 and # RRSX022, would not work for your 2013 Volkswagen Touareg because the rack should not be used with vehicles that have a sun roof. Additionally, each of the Yakima...

• Roof Rack and Cargo Box Recommendation for 2016 Mercedes GL 450
  You are on the right track. You will need a set of crossbars mounted to the raised side rails of your 2016 Mercedes Benz GL 450 to carry a cargo box. For that the Rhino Rack roof rack part numbers # RRVA126B-2 and # RRSX100 is what I recommend. This rack gives you crossbars that are aero shaped to minimize wind noise and is very easy to install so I recommend it highly.

Therefore, the Rightline Gear Sport 3 Rooftop Cargo Bag part # RL100S30 will not fit your 2016 Honda Odyssey unless you first install a roof rack like the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbar System which consists of part # RRVA126B-2, part # RRQMVA10, part # RRRTV168, and part # RRRLT600. The next best option which is also more cost effective would be to install a trailer hitch like the etrailer.com...

  Yes. The Rhino Rack Roof Rack for 2012 Nissan Rogue that uses the parts # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA and # DK146 is compatible with your 2012 Nissan Rogue with a naked roof.

• Roof Kayak Carrier Recommendation for a 2014 Honda Odyssey EX-L with Moon Roof
  Foam block carriers such as Malone Deluxe Kayak Carrier - Foam Block Style Item # MPG152 are designed as a temporary, short-distance solution to carry a kayak. On a van that has sliding side doors they wouldn't work because on a naked roof it would require running straps through the interior of the vehicle. You would instead need a roof rack for your van. I can make some recommendations if you can tell me the year, make, and model of the van.

Instead, for your 2011 Chevy Equinox with raised side rails I recommend the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack, which will give your Equinox a very functional, durable rack that will allow you to use a load assist.

• Can Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars Carry a Roofnest Sparrow Adventure XL Tent
  The Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 49" Long # RRVA126B-2 have a capacity of 165-lbs, which is the highest available for your 2021 Toyota RAV4, so you will be limited to that weight when loading items on the roof rack. Since your Sparrow Adventure XL tent weighs 150-lbs alone, you'll eat up most of the capacity with that. You will always be limited to the lowest rated component in your setup and in this case it appears that the roof of the RAV4 is only rated for...

• Recommended Rhino-Rack Roof Rack For A 2016 Ram 3500 And How Does Roof Rack Capacity Work
  Hey Bob, Roof rack systems are typically only rated up to 165lbs because that's typically above the capacity of the vehicle's roof. More recently all manufacturers are switching to removing the capacity from the listing and telling consumers to check the weight capacity of the roof because people have been overloading their roofs and causing damage. The # RR38ZE is missing a crossbar but includes the correct amount of feet and and fit kit components so you'll need to order the following...
