4 High-profile legs allow you to mount 2 Rhino-Rack crossbars or a Pioneer platform safely and securely to your vehicle with fixed mounting points. Locking covers secure roof rack legs to your vehicle.Installation was a little tricky. Used my phone with the camera pointing up to align the Allen wrench up with the screw to tighten the crossbar down.
These feel sturdy with the Rhino Rach Vortex bars and they look clean. I am happy with the final product. I like that the locks came with them without a significant upcharge. I would give them five stars but I don't like that there is only one bolt to attach each one to the car. There should at least be two per mount (this is only an anecdotal thought). I also thought the upside-down blind hole to tighten the bars to these mounts was a slow and frustrating experience. The Rhino-Rack system is great, it competes with all of the other brands but at a lower price point. However, if they were to improve on anything, it would these platforms. The custom fixed mounting points fit my car perfectly like it was OEM designed and the vortex crossbars are the best in the game.
I searched a lot of websites before finding what I needed on etrailer.com for my 2012 Suzuki GV. I was looking for the proper mounts to install a Kayak rack system. Because my vehicle has a built in rail system it was very confusing what was needed. Thank you etrailer for hooking me up with the appropriate parts for the Rhino system, it worked great!
I purchased the Rhino Rack roof rack as an alternative to the factory installed products and the more popular Thule and Yakima brands. The Rhino Rack is solid and sleek and is largely silent while driving (if I have the roof open you can hear a soft whistle). Not only does the rack look fantastic, but the non-slip top and the strong bars make carrying things on top a real pleasure.
Not exactly the roof rack system I was looking for but they fit very well and seems very sturdy. I had ordered the low profile rhino racks a few months back and was sent the bars for the wrong vehicle. The customer service was great and refunded me for the product. However, every time I went back to check to see if the item (low price rhino rack) was in stock over the past 6+ months, I found nothing had changed. Finally had to bite the bullet on this rack system although it’s not what I was looking for. It’s a nice alternative. Still upset that the other rack has been advertised for so long but was never able to purchase.
First....the customer service was great. Followed and answering questions were timely and helpful. Install was easy as I’ve had experience with these and similar. Instructions were clear and the bars are very very sturdy. Very solid. I’m anxious to start loading my equipment on it to really utilize them. Hopefully they will hold up to their name as I’ve trusted rhino rack and etrailer for my source multiple times now.
I ordered the Rhino cross bars and cargo basket together for my 2021 RAv4 Hybrid simply because I wanted a sure combo that would work together. I am a semi-mechanical person and the whole job took me about 2 hr (bars + cage). It was not difficult, but the bars require precise alignments and a second pair of hands. Also maybe a foot stool and a mirror to see underneath bars for screw heads. My only suggestion for cross bar install is to dry fit everything first- tightening always seems to throw off alignments. Patience is key! The screws to hold platforms to mounting feet will not go in easy unless alignment is perfect.
Overall rack fits great. I'd like to see the longer crossbars show as approved. It's not really clear why I couldn't put 52 inch bars on a 2017 highlander but it shows they won't fit.
Great customer service with James on the front end. Arrived sooner than expected! Fairly easy setup. It took me a little over an hour. We will be using it to haul paddle boards as well as a tandem road bike. One of our next purchases will be the batwing awning and possibly the Tag-a-long tent if we don’t get a roof top tent
I would have given a 5 but the instructions/video skipped some worthwhile info. Overall I’m pleased.
Easy to install. Great product!
Love the look and the key to prevent theft was unexpected.
Looks great! Was hoping for a quieter ride but am getting a lot of wind noise. I will be adding a wind Fairing to see if this helps.
Heather A - 06/10/2021Placed it on a 2021 Toyota Rav4 and it fit perfectly. Follow the directions and it will be very easy to install. All hardware and tool was provided. I added Items #RR42SV and #RRVA126B-2
Your customer service is above and beyond - all companies should be like yours
product came in, 3 of 3, pieces with one of the pieces miss marked and the wrong piece. Called customer service and it was immediately identified, and the correct piece sent out to me. No one is perfect, but it is Great Customer Service that makes up for mistakes and makes it right. Thank-you!!
We bought the Rhino Rack after realizing that neither of the other brands would fit right onto our Highlander. I ended up having to purchase both of the other major brands to figure that out. In the end, I found out that the Rhino rack fit exactly to the stock configuration of our car. It also held much more weight than the comparable brands. We could not be happier with this rack. I would recommend just skipping the other brands and getting the Rhino Rack regardless of your vehicle model. I found it to be a very well-designed rack system. All of the accessories fit perfectly. It even looks great on our car.
Great product, fast shipping, fits well with my Tahoe. Thanks,
There ok. The center screw that the bar connect to is to long and screws into you roof mounts on a Ford Explorer. So if you take them off, your roof rails would have to be repaired. Maybe more overkill than I needed. Factory bars are way cheaper and wont ruin your rails and would have done the job.
Easy to attach to our 2017 Toyota Highlander. Very secure. etrailer's customer service is exceptional!
Great product and aftermarket support.
This is the best website and the best customer service I have received by any company on the web. Every interaction was informative and timely. People, prices and products are excellent. I am in the roofing sales business and from time to time I need to put my big ladder on my vehicle and the crossbars with ladder roller and load stops work great. Two product improvements could be made: 1) crossbars whistle when above 30 mph, so they could have a better design to reduce or eliminate that or 2) the crossbars should have a quick release under the key cover instead of the hex screws.
Rhino Rack was the only company that makes a direct bolt roof rack for a flat roof Toyota Highlander. We love it for hauling tje Kayaks.
Works as intended. No issues
