Features:
Specs:
The heavy-duty TimberLine towers allow you to mount 2 Yakima crossbars to your vehicle with raised, factory side rails. The towers install with rubber-coated stainless steel straps that wrap around your side rails. And the TimberLines' versatile BarBeds accommodate Yakima's full line of crossbars.
Versatile BarBed
The TimberLine's BarBed is designed to work with Yakima's entire line of crossbars.
The BarBed is curved to accommodate the elliptical shape of the CoreBar and JetStream crossbar. The CoreBar includes brackets that slide over the bar and secure to the towers with bolts. The JetStream attaches directly to the tower with bolts.
The towers also work with Yakima RoundBars with adapters (Y03536 - sold separately). The adapters slide over the bars and secure to the towers with bolts.
Secure Installation with Rubber-Coated Stainless Steel Straps
The towers install easily with rubber-coated stainless steel straps. Simply remove the tower covers, wrap the straps around your raised side rails, and secure the straps to the towers. The straps provide maximum contact and security by wrapping completely around your side rails.
Tighten the bolts inside the towers with the included torque tool to complete installation. This is the only tool you will need to secure the towers to your rails and your crossbars to the towers. The torque tool also helps prevent over- or under-tightening. The tool clicks 3 times once you've reached the correct amount of torque.
Same Key System Locks
TimberLine towers are compatible with Yakima SKS lock cores (Y07204 - sold separately) that allow you to secure the roof rack to your roof. The SKS locks are all keyed alike so a single key opens all the locks. The locks can also be swapped out to make all of your Yakima products keyed alike.

Speaker 1: Today in our 2017 Toyota Forerunner we're going to be test fitting the Yakima JetStream Roof Rack System. Which consists of part number Y00425 these are the JetStream Cross Bars, 50 inches long in black and is also going to be using part number Y00147 and these are the Timberline Towers for the Yakima Cross Bars, particularly for the factory raised side rails.The Yakima JetStream Roof Rack System is great for carrying a wide variety of accessories on your roof, while freeing up space inside your vehicle. This thing carries bike racks, cargo baskets, as well as kayak carriers.The bar's themselves do have an aerodynamic shape to them and that coupled with the rubber strip up at the top, as well as the bottom that's going to cut down on the wind noise and drag while you drive.Another advantage after removing the end cap is you see you can use T-track accessories with this. What sets this apart from other style T-track accessories, normally you'd have to remove the strip, cut it to length put the accessory in and then put the strip back around it. With this it's a little different. You can actually push this top portion down, and slide your T-track accessory in without having to cut the strip initially at all.The end caps are lockable by removing this plastic piece here.
You can replace it with the Yakima same key system, which you can find on etrailer.com. So not only can this be secured to your factory raised side rails, but it can also be key to like with your accessories that you're hauling.To give you a couple of measurements here, from the top of the center of the roof here to the top portion of our bar, that's going to be about 4 1/4 inches high. From the center to the bottom, that's going to be about 3 3/4 inches high. So this gives you plenty of space for your accessories, so you're not going to have an issue of clearance between the clamps and the top of your roof.Also, both bars have a combined carrying capacity of 165 pounds, but you always want to double check with your owner's manual to make sure your roof can withstand those weights.Now that we've gone over some of the features of the JetStream Cross Bar Roof Rack System, lets go ahead and show you how it installs. We already have our front bar installed on our vehicle already and we have our rear bar partially assembled on our table here.In front of us we have the tower, the end caps for the tower, the tightening tool which comes included and the kit to install it onto our actual JetStream bar.Our first step is to start assembling our tower here.
We'll take our plastic piece and that just pushes into place, like so. And we'll take our middle bracket here, set that in on the top, we'll flip it upside down. You see the hole here for the screw, take our included tool and tighten that down until you hear audible clicks. This way you know you're not over-tightening it.Now we can install this onto our bar. So we'll take this end and slide it in to our track here, like so.
Now normally there is a strip here, we removed it and once you get it in place, you would cut it to length and put it back in place. But for demonstration purposes we're just going to leave it as is.Finally we can install our end cap for our bar and now we can set this the factory raised side rails on our vehicles. No particular place.Next we'll measure out from center to center for our cross bar spread. Just want to make sure you don't below 24 inches, or you can go by whatever accessory it is that you're hauling and go by it's recommendations as well.Now we'll measure for our overhang and make sure that's even on both sides too, which is from this point out. Okay, that looks good.
Now we'll wrap our strap underneath here. Push that in place. Then we'll tighten up the screw on the inside with our tightening tool, again making sure we hear those audible clicks, so we know we don't over-tighten.We'll do this on the driver's side as well, then we'll tighten down this screw again to hear those clicks, on both sides. Then finally we can place in our end cap and load up our gear.And there you have it for the Yakima JetStream Roof Rack System on our 2017 Toyota 4runner.

I havent used it a lot, but its working out fine much superior to the factory rack.
Dennis - 06/29/2019Great website. Had an issue with on of the brackets and they resolved the issue quickly without any issues. Will definitely recommend site to others. Thank you 548331
Timely delivery of my order, as usual! Easy to install on my 2015 4Runner. I took one of the mounts and followed directions just to be sure then the other three went even quicker. I now have the ability to carry up to 3 kayaks, perfect! etrailer is a great company! 501203
These mounts have a solid feel are pretty straight forward to install. Everything you need to install them comes in the package. Just don't lose the torque tool. A couple items that keep me from giving this 5 stars: The number of turns required to set up the mounts are a little extreme. You really need to turn the strap screw 100 times before preparing to install. The mount screw release must be loosened properly or else the cross bar will not install easily. It would be nice if they told you this or mentioned it in the instructions. Once started, installing the cross bar on the mounts took about 15 minutes. The mount was easy to install on my car's racks. I've only had the system mounted for a day so we'll see how they work under real use. 347855
Great service. I could not be more pleased with the very rapid delivery service. The product is always top quality. 314088
Instructions were clear and the fit is good. Solid product for my 4 Runner since the factory cross bars were way too low to attach anything without rubbing the roof badly. I haven't noticed any noise from highway driving. 420678
Excellent service 545440
Great transaction and prompt delivery. Just got the towers today. They assembled relatively easily. I imagine they'll work pretty well on the Touareg. 548600
Great helpful website, especially the how-to videos. Purchase was a snap. I don't even shop for price anymore. All my hitches and racks etc will always come from etrailer 430462
I was going to go with the cheap generic racks and towers, so glad I didn't. These Yakima towers and aero crossbars are really nice! People complained that the tower covers didn't fit very tight. You need to get the locks for these so they lock on. Don't try to use them without the locks. 570974
I’m using these towers in conjunction with the JetStream cross bars. Assembly and setup was easy, all the tools you need are provided, except perhaps a tape measure for mounting. Looks and feels solid and well made. This is my second set of Yakima towers and cross bars. I plan to use this setup for an old roof top hard shell case and for my mountain bike to get to the trail head. After completing the installation I took it out for a spin to check for wind noise at highway speeds. No discernible noise, I’m very happy about that as I really don’t want to remove these when not needed. For reference these are mounted on a 2019 Subaru Forester Touring with factory raised rails. Plenty of clearance for attaching equipment and gear. Side note: the gentleman that assisted me on the phone while ordering was very pleasant and helpful, got me the right products very quickly as I was in a time crunch. Two thumbs up! 683262
Durable products it looks nice and decent. Will travel from New mexico to washington state im not worried coz i trust etrailer 675262
Work out well on 2015 Jeep Cherokee. 670963
Installation of the hitch, wiring,rear bike rack, and new roof rack towers went well. I didn't set any speed records, but I was more concerned with doing no damage on a new 2019 Toyota Sienna AWD van. The hitch fit up well per instructions except that I was able to work around the exhaust without lowering it. Underbody panel and rear fascia did both need to be removed. Very happy with the end result. The new van is now set up to haul the bikes and canoes and move my log splitter. 668946
Easy to install thanks to the etrailer video. I have used the rack system on many long distance trips including driving from South Carolina to Yellowstone. 634355

Easy to install, can’t wait to try them out 551102
Minor complaint. The end caps come off too easily. 527606
Great versatility - Purchased since it works with both my Subaru Outback AND Volvo XC-70. Multiple crossbar options works with towers. Am using with my older round ones but can upgrade to newer aero crossbar design. Have made several purchases from e-trailer. Prompt shipping and good with exchanges/service. 516440
I am pleased with the product, and am extremely pleased with the service provided by the team at etrailer. They were accurate in their advice and effective in making an adjustment in the midst of the sales process, all the while demonstrating real concern for my satisfaction. This was probably the best experience I've had in purchasing through the web. 420206
Great fit, fairly easy instructions, I prefer printed instructions along with the pictures. All in all I recommend this product . 303687
