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.

Heavy-duty towers allow you to mount 2 Yakima crossbars safely and securely to your vehicle's raised, factory side rails. Towers attach with rubber-coated stainless steel straps and tighten with the include torque tool.Rack installed easily. Also purchased hitch and carrier from eTrailer. All arrived quickly. Alex J helped me out when my rack wasn't going to arrive on time for my trip. I'm a happy camper (literally). 824181
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 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
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
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
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
Here's photo of rack installed on a 2018 Chevrolet Traverse. 528228
Dennis - 06/29/2019Great 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
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
Great customer service 837444
Came faster than I thought it would. It was pretty hard for me to install it but I got the hang of it. There was some discrepancy with how to install it on multiple sites so that was a little annoying. All in all a good product 831753
Simple to assemble with one tool (inclu ded). 822898
Ordering was a breeze. Fast shipping. Excellent communication. Product arrived well-packaged. Product easy to install; completely as described. Yakima products are superior-performers. etrailer is an excellent source for truck & trailer products. 811422
Perfect. Perfect. Easy to install and high quality. Confident in this product. Excellent instructions. Used with crossbars of course! 808720
Fast delivery, excellent product. Faint whistle at highway speeds only (over 60 mph). Very happy 802422
These Timberline mounts are replacing my Baseline mounts I used on a different vehicle. I was able to use my same bars with these mounts. Easy installation, but I have tried loading my Kayaks as of yet. 799351
Boy between Yakima products and etrailer’s customer service it’s a 10 start team. Product was installed by me with a little help from etrailer’s video And it fits great. Now awaiting the Yakima Kayak racks. And of course etrailer delivered it ahead of promised. Again great team to work with. 789768

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
