The Yakima BaseLine FX roof rack keeps things looking clean and intentional. The flush design means there’s no awkward bar overhang—everything lines up neatly for a factory-style finish. It hugs the roofline for a low, aerodynamic profile that looks built-in instead of bolted on.
When you’re driving with gear on the roof, noise can ruin the ride. These aluminum crossbars are shaped to move air smoothly, and the push-down rubber strips in the top channels dampen whistling and vibration. The result is less noise and less drag, so highway drives feel more relaxed.
Whether it’s a kayak in summer or a cargo box for a road trip, this rack handles it all. The aero-style crossbars work with both channel-mount and clamp-on accessories, so you can easily switch between watersport carriers, bike racks, or rooftop boxes without needing different hardware.
These bars are made from aluminum and hold up to 165 lbs while still keeping weight to a minimum. The sturdy build gives you confidence when hauling bigger loads—whether that’s camping gear, a canoe, or building materials. Always check your vehicle’s maximum roof load capacity to stay within limits.
You can add Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately) to secure both the rack and your accessories. It’s an easy upgrade that helps protect your setup when you park at a trailhead or stop overnight on the road.

Great service
Fit perfect & quick delivery
Worded as described easy ordering will order again
I love this product and do business with you guys because of unparalleled service. You tutorial and explanation of the product has definitely prepared me for effective use!
Perfect fit for our car, much better than any OEM rack I've ever seen.
Easy to order parts specific to our 2017 Ford Edge Titanium. Ford does not offer a rack on this model due to sunroof. Install was straight forward and looks/works great. Thanks.
I ordered these specifically for my vehicle and they fit perfectly. Clear instructions for installation and a coating that won't leave marks on my vehicle.
Work exactly as they should and hold everything securely to my vehicle without interfering with the car’s normal operation. etrailer had best prices based on my research.
The crossbars are light and very strong. They fit perfectly and installed easily.
Dealing with etrailer has been very easy. The first roof rack was incorrect and they worked with us immediately to get it resolved. In hindsight I am glad as the Yakima is a much better quality and works great with our car.
Thanks!
Great product, easy to install, very happy with etrailers shipping.
I have truly enjoyed this system. It allows our family of five plus our dog to stretch out in the car while our gear is secured on the roof. It takes a bit to mount it but I want it secure and it does fine with a roof box at interstate speeds. I absolutely recommend this system.
All aspects of the purchase and installation were great. Based on the information provided on the etrailer.com website, I had a high level of confidence that I was purchasing the correct product(s) for my vehicle. The installation was relatively simple and straightforward and the rack is rock solid on my roof. It appears that I did a great job of following the directions :)
Yakima towers and crossbars were solid and easy to install with the very well written instructions. We used them on 2 cross country trips with any loosening. They were easy to remove. We plan to use them again as the need arises.
Very happy with the Yakima roof top rack kit for my 2017 Ford Edge with glass roof. The instructions were a little confusing at first, but after reading through them a couple of times while working with the product they became much clearer. The Yakima fit site was helpful as well. After the initial cross bar mounting measurements and set up, attaching and detaching the racks from the roof is a very simple process.
High quality and all. But my old Yakima rack setup stayed together. The cover was part of a lever to tighten clips. The clips were captured in the assembly. New design the cover and clips need to be completely removed. Need a torque Allen wrench to install every time. Loose parts become Easter egg hunts. Am sure this is to sailer proof mount--that truly is impossible!
