After two decades the products are still relatively easy to install, and fit tight and secure to my vehicle. Do take care to pay attention to the installation instructions and follow the recommended measurements very closely and the installation will go smoothly.
I have used Yakima in the past so I know it will be a great product.
Alex J was very helpful in getting the order processed. And it was delivered in a quick time frame. All parts arrived well packaged with no damage.
The Yakima bars are a simple item. They fit my racks as I expected. Removing the existing bars and installing the longer bars took about 20 - 30 minutes. Using a tape measure to center the bars, and an allen wrench to tighten them in place were the only tools needed. After several times loading and unloading canoes, the covering on the bars is scuffed and gouged, but has held up well to the abuse I give it. They don't flex with loads strapped tightly to them. etrailer had the product in stock. Ordering on-line was quick, simple, and painless. Received the bars without damage and on time. I've ordered several items from etrailer and never had a bad experience.
Sturdy, support the roof rack well
etrailer never disappoints! Every product I need, I check that etrailer has it before purchasing anywhere else. Thank you for the excellent service, the fast delivery, and the email updates on order status.

After using the rack for several miles, it seems that is holding up to my pop up trailer original tracks with no signs of decay or damage to any of my components, I do check for security after every trip and found no indication of slip or damage, looks like is going to be a good component for years to come.
Item arrived in good shape one day before expected delivery. 78” round bars for Yakima rack we’re exactly as ordered.

Excellent- replaced crossbars that were bent and had the plastic covering cracking. This allowed winter road salt to rust the original bars. I hope these hold up better.
I bought longer round bars to extend my Yakima rack outward from the vehicle. Replacement was straightforward. I bought the original system at the same time - q towers and round bars, and was provided with end caps for the bars. The replacement bars came without endcaps, and those on the shorter bars basically crumbled when I tried to remove them for re-use. New end caps would have been nice, or a reminder that purchasers might want to get more.
Ordered the 78" Yakima crossbars with end caps as I frequently going canoeing in groups in the Northeast. The long bars allow for a canoe and cargo (Rocketbox) or two canoes. I could not believe how fast the bars showed up on my doorstep! etrailer had what I wanted at the best price and the customer service was simply a bonus. Def will be back!
Have had yakima products for many years - needed longer bars for two canoes - recommend yakima
Fast service, easy to work with!
Yakima is a great system. Just needed to replace bars that were very old.
Really excited about this product. Looks great and has great utility! Does not interfere with cargo capacity in the bed of the truck and is very sturdy. My truck has much versatility, now, with the addition of this Yakima system.
Great Roof Rack. Noisy but overall excellent product.
I am very happy with this roof rack. I use it all the time for hauling paintball gear. It even held up well with my 10x12 cargo net. This was an awesome purcahase.
They're Yakima bars. Not much to say about them. Yakima makes a great product.
etrailers shipping was almost as fast as Jimmy Johns Sub Sandwiches. Great Company to do business with.
Yakima quality excellent as always which is essential since you pay so much for their products.
cant Go wrong with Yakima products. etrailer has been excellent as well. Fast order possessing and my first of two orders this month came earlier then expected.
The crossbars are fine, I've had several different round bars and all good. The shipping from etrailer was poor. Both ends of the box were open and the bars obviously had scraped on something, damaging the coating. A couple pieces of tape would have solved the issue.

The bars continue to function well. Hey, theyre just bars after all. No issues so far and I expect they will outlast the truck.
