Video Transcript for What to Know About the Rhino-Rack Vortex Roof Rack

Hey guys. It's Randy here at etrailer.com. Today we're doing a demo on the Rhino Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars. These are aluminum aero-shaped crossbar, of course they're designed to work with your Rhino Rack fit kit or leg kit, those are going to be sold separate.As you can see here, this is going to give us a spot on our roof to clear up a lot of space inside our vehicle. We've got a bike rack attached here, simply comes down, straps right around it. Gives us a excellent way to get that transported if we don't want something hanging off the back of our vehicle or if we don't want to take the whole thing apart and try to shove it inside.The aluminum crossbars are going to be lightweight and they're going to be very corrosion resistant, we're not going to have to worry about any kind of corrosion and eventually it dripping down on our vehicle.Now these crossbars are available in several different lengths, so depending on smaller vehicle, larger vehicle, we're going to have the right crossbar to match up with your vehicle.

They're also going to be available, not only the black that we see here, but silver. If you don't like the way a black roof rack looks, you can see with this silver side rails kind of blend in a little bit more if we had silver. That's kinda going to be up to you.The end cap here is something that they have provided a plastic core lock for. You just place this in here, rotate it to the unlock position, that's going to slide off for us. These can very easily be replaced with a locking core if you want a keyed lock to keep everything safe and secure, you can go that route also.Not only does our strip here keep our items from sliding side to side, but it's also going to protect the channel underneath from things running down in and for T-Slot type accessories this thing can be cut, put right back in.

This is going to do an excellent job of eliminating any noises that wind comes across. It won't get in that channel, we're not going to hear any of it.The bars are anodized fully through. Even on the inside here, if moisture happens to get in there and collect, we're not going to have to worry about corrosion. These give us excellent strength. You can see it's hollow, that helps it to stay nice and lightweight, but we have all the integral support here, gonna make 'em extremely, extremely durable.

They will really exceed well past that 165 pound weight rating that they offer, but it's not something you wanna do.The larger rectangle that we have here, that's where we slide in any of the foot pegs that we might need to match our particular vehicle.To ensure that you're accessories that you already have are going to fit or to ensure that you're getting the right accessories, just want to give you the dimensions real quick on our crossbars. From our front edge to our rear edge, we've got about 3-1/8 of an inch, then from the bottom up to the top, it's going to be an inch and 3/16. As long as your accessories are designed to fit that, which most of 'em on the market today are, won't have any issues.I really like the way this roof rack system looks. There are roof rack systems however, that will not overhang like this. Overhanging like what we have here, that gives you additional room for accessories and stuff.

Some people they'll prefer more of a factory look or more of a sleek look. In that case, I think I'd recommend one of the roof rack systems that come and end in the foot pack. We'd have our bar that comes over, but it's going to end right here in this area and be a little bit more sleek than what we have here with our overhanging aero bars from Rhino Rack.That's going to do it for our look at the Rhino Rack Vortex Aero Roof Rack Crossbars.

  • 2009 Land Rover Range Rover Pioneer Platform Compatibility
    Your best option is to attach a Rhino Rack roof rack to your vehicle and then a Pioneer Platform to the Rhino Rack roof rack. That is the only way you can attach a Pioneer Platform to your vehicle and it be covered by their warranty. Unfortunately, there is not a tested fit for your 2009 Land Rover Range Rover which will allow you to mount a Pioneer Platform directly to Rhino Rack legs. My rack recommendation is the 2009 Land Rover Range Rover Roof Rack by Rhino Rack. It has a weight limit...

  • Recommended Solution to Carry Platform Roof Rack on 2006 Land Rover Range Rover HSE
    In a lot of cases there are ways to directly fit a Pioneer Platform like the # RR89QX to a set of Rhino Rack RCL Legs # RRRCL6, but there is not a fit kit that will allow you to attach the RCL legs to your 2006 Range Rover HSE. The 2006 Land Rover Range Rover HSE only has fit kits for the RCH legs and this is what is keeping you from connecting directly to the roof in the manner that you're seeking. With that said, you can install a roof rack using parts # RRVA137B-3, # RRRCH6 and # RRRCP05-BK...

    I have a answer that will help you determine if there is interference with the crossbars with your antenna on your 2010 Range Rover. I confirmed with my tech at Rhino-Rack that the Rhino-Rack that the Rhino-Rack RVP Roof Rack for Fixed Mounting Points - Qty. 3 # RRRVP05 measures just shy of 2 inches tall from the roof to the bottom of the crossbar. In order to make sure that it fits over your antenna, I recommend measuring the height of your antenna. If you need a bit more height on your...

    I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack for Fixed Mounting Points # RRRVP05 will not fit your 2008 Land Rover Range Rover HSE because it interferes with the vehicle's antenna. For a great alternative, I recommend the following parts: - Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 54" Long - Qty 3 # RRVA137B-3 - RCH Legs for Rhino-Rack Crossbars and Pioneer Platforms - Fixed Mounting Points - Qty 6 # RRRCH6 - Custom RCP Fit Kit for 6 Rhino-Rack RC and...

  • Roof Rack Recommendations That Use Fixed Mounting Points On 2011 Toyota FJ Cruiser
    We have a couple options for a roof rack on your 2011 FJ Cruiser that uses the fixed mounting points. The first roof rack I recommend is the Rhino-Rack Vortex Roof Rack. This system features black, aluminum aerodynamic crossbars with Vortex strips in the C-channels to help reduce wind noise. The custom leg kit and adapters install in the OEM mounting points on your roof you said you have for a clean custom look. The weight capacity for the roof rack is 165-lbs but you want to make sure...

  • Recommended Roof Rack for a 2018 Lexus GX 460
    Thank you for the photos! It looks like your 2018 Lexus GX 460 has the flush mounted rails. We have some roof rack options that fit your vehicle and have parts that could potentially fit other SUVs but I would need to know what they are to confirm fits. Typically the crossbars and sometimes the legs can be reused but that would just depend on what you end up leasing in the future. For more of a universal system I recommend the Rhino-Rack roof rack which uses 3 of their 49" Vortex Aero...

    The 60" x 49" Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack # RR35TB requires specific fit kits and is only compatible with certain vehicles. We do have a Pioneer platform rack that will fit the factory crossbars on your 2009 Lexus GX 470 but unfortunately this is not the correct part number. Instead you need to use the 58" x 47" Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack # RR42115BF which is a universal fit that is compatible with round, square, elliptical, and most factory crossbars.

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for 2014 Lexus GX 460 with Flush Rails for Roof Top Tent
    For carrying a heavier tent like what you have I would recommend going with a three bar roof rack setup that's a fit for your 2014 Lexus GX 460 with flush rails with the Rhino Rack Vortex part numbers # RRVA126B-3, # RRRCH6, and # RRRCP23-BK. This will give you additional weight capacity to support the tent when travelling and also when the tent has people in it when parked.

  • Recommendation For A Roof Rack For A 2017 Lexus GX 460 With Factory Flush Rails

The Rhino Rack Aero system has three aerodynamic crossbars that are 49 inches long, vortex strips that reduce noise, and it comes with locks. It has a weight capacity of 220-lbs and is a confirmed fit for your vehicle. Since you will be using it in conjunction with a tent, I recommend reviewing...

With these, you'll be able to mount Rhino-Rack HD Bars, part # RB1250. This may seem confusing at first because the fit-guide states that these are not compatible with your 2007 Lexus GX 470.

If your Lexus already has the factory side rails that run front to back, the Inno Aero Crossbars # INXB130-2 and Inno Through Feet for Aero Crossbars # INXS150 will be what you need for the kayak carrier.
