These Rhino-Rack Heavy Duty crossbars are made from aluminum, giving you strength without unnecessary weight. With a total capacity of 220 lbs—always keeping in mind your vehicle’s roof limit—they’re ready for ladders, contractor gear, or outdoor equipment. The solid build inspires confidence whether you’re hauling a kayak to the lake or loading up for a long road trip.
The top channels hold Rhino-Rack Heavy Duty accessories like ladder rollers, load stops, and eyebolts. Rubber strips in those channels add cushioning and help your gear stay put by reducing slip. It’s a simple touch that makes a big difference when you’re tightening down cargo for highway miles or over rough access roads.
This setup includes two 54" square crossbars, four 2500 Series legs, and a custom fit kit made for mounting on a naked roof. The lockable cover plates on the legs secure the rack to your vehicle so it stays attached once installed. That means peace of mind when you park at a trailhead or leave your gear mounted overnight at camp.
Whether it’s hauling canoes, carrying tools, or loading up fishing gear, these bars work with Rhino-Rack Heavy Duty channel-mount accessories built for real use. Their 1-3/8" wide x 5/8" tall top channels with a 13/16" opening make it easy to slide in mounts and get set up fast for any job or weekend plan.
The crossbars carry a limited lifetime warranty, while the legs and fit kit each have a 5-year limited warranty. That long-term coverage pairs well with the aluminum build and silver finish, giving you a rack system that’s made to last through years of travel, work, and outdoor adventures.

Solid fabrication great workmanship only down fall its wrecked my windows rubber seals
Once installed they seem sturdy and look good. One of the end caps was damaged in shipping but otherwise everything was good
Great advice & customer service. I highly recommend etrailer.

This is an excellent product. It was the only product that would fit my truck. I was able to mount it by myself, it took me longer than I thought it would, but it helps if you watch first a video on line about how to put it together. The support staff is excellent if you miss any parts. I highly recommend it for the 2015 Nissan Rogue.

Two items I received surprised me when I unpacked the box were the rails because they were not black like I saw in the picture, and the rubber insert that I am having a hard time sliding in the rail. Should this rubber insert have come already installed in the rail or is there a top on how to put in with ease?
The rack fit well and was easy to install. Seems to be made well. The problem is the amount of road noise. I never even put the basket on. It was so loud, it roared. I repositioned it several times but the noise was way too much and I finally just removed it. I spent a lot of money for the rack and the basket and now they are in storage. I wish it would have worked out better because I thought it looked really good.
Well engineered rack that fits my Ram 2500 crew cab well. A bit of wind noise at highway speeds. I have the heavy duty cross pieces with a square cross section.
This is my second Rhino-Rack. They go on very easily and hold the bikes/kayaks and even an extension ladder very well....thanks for a great product
I purchased this because I needed 11" brackets and I only needed two to add to my existing setup. Other manufacturers (I could only find one) only sold packs of four at a ridiculously high price. My Rhino Rack mounts and bar arrived within a few days of my order and appear very sturdy and well made. I bought them to add a third support for an awning and a solar shower on the roof of my van. I think I found the perfect solution.
This rack worked out great... I installed in on a 2017 Ford F-150. We drove 6 hrs through wind and rain with a SUP and Tandem Kayak on top. It really took a beating in a storm the whole way. One bracket was a little loose and shifted because of the wind on the Kayak, but it held together. Super happy with Rhino rack!
This kit is easy to slap on and sturdy enough to balance my skis and snowboards. I recently used the Rhino Rack on a three hour drive to a ski resort and had no issues.
I was in a roof rack jam. There was a national shortage of the rack I needed for my car and our summer vacation was a week away. I went to etrailer.com when I couldnt find the roof rack anywhere else on the web. Another website actually suggested that they might have what I needed.
I spoke to Ashley E on the phone to make sure that I was picking the right parts. Ashley was very helpful and knowledgable. She helped me find the right roof rack and made sure that I received it in record time. I am a customer for life!!!
I got the roof rack mounted anyways. Better pics to come when it's all finished!
Great product everything fit perfectly. With the heavy duty bars almost all the hardware for anything you put on the rack is too short
Ordered a Rhino Rack for my 2014 GMC Sierra 2500HD Denali. Rack arrived in very good shape and all items were there. Installing at this time and see no problems ahead.
Great product. Installation was simple. Fast shipment. Instructions pretty easy. Product fights perfect and looks great. 2011 Dodge Durango Express.
The rack was fairly easy to mount on my Durango. I was able to load my kayak from the side since I have a bike rack on the rear. I use a bathroom rug and flip the boat up on the car, then slide the boat directly onto the rack. I only carry it this way for short drives to local lakes. There is some wind noise at 50 mph.
Thanks to Etrailer, I am ready to do some serious summer exploring with my 2013 Mazda 3! Rhino Racks, Malone top box, and Kuat bike rack!
It works amazing and doesn’t look bad on. Super easy to mount once you have it setup. First time setup is not to difficult once you get the instructions.
This works great. Very strong and reliable. Holds my ladders with ease. I’ve had it loaded down and done 80mph on the highway no problem.
This rack works perfectly on my Nissan Versa for carrying my two Perception Sound 9'6" kayaks. The Rhino-Racks look good to me. The kayaks can rest directly on the rubber pads on the rails, unlike the Yakama racks I had in the past that had bare pipe rails. Also, I expect I can buy parts to adapt this product to a different car without having to buy new towers. I am sorry there are not hooks or loops to attach bungees when carrying lumber. They are noisy in the wind, but less so when carrying the kayaks.
These are the perfect racks for a low profile mounting of solar panels on my Sprinter van.

Works great, about to use the full set up once again on a over 2000 mile trip this summer.
