When you’re loading up for a big haul, these aluminum HD crossbars give you the strength and stability you need. Rated for 500 lbs (always follow your vehicle’s maximum roof load), the heavy-duty build handles serious gear—whether it’s a stack of kayaks, a loaded cargo box, or camping supplies. The solid aluminum construction inspires confidence every time you tighten down your straps.
Long drives can get loud when wind passes over your roof rack, but this design helps keep things quiet. Rubberized strips line the top channels to reduce wind noise and drag, making highway driving smoother and less tiring. You still get a strong bar that supports your accessories without adding that constant whistle overhead.
When you’re strapping down a kayak or paddleboard at the end of the day, built-in tie-down points on each endcap make it quick and easy. You don’t have to hunt for anchor spots or awkwardly loop straps around bar edges. Just hook up, cinch down, and know your load is secure for the trip home.
No need to replace your favorite carriers or mounts. These bars work with channel-mount accessories that slide into the top channels, as well as clamp-on gear that wraps around the bar. That means your bike racks, ski holders, cargo boxes, and kayak cradles all fit right in—one rack system for all seasons.
This setup includes everything needed for a secure installation—2 HD crossbars, 4 BaseLine towers, 4 adapters, and a custom fit kit for your vehicle’s naked roof. The Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores are sold separately if you want to add theft deterrence later. Durable black aluminum construction finishes it off with a clean look that’s ready for miles of adventure.

Excellent solution for my 2023 Chevy Silverado. In the past, I have had rails installed on the roof of my pickup trucks, but I find the BaseLine towers to be a better solution, since they don't permanently change the truck. Plus, they are much more solid than SkyLine system on the rails.
Love my Yakima roof rack!! It exceeds my expectations.great product. Also thank etrailer for the tec support! great staff always there to help thanks again!!
I had a difficult time identifying whether these were the correct adapters for the rack towers that I was purchasing to fit my tracks but that has more to do with yakima doing everything a-la-cart instead of having kits that include everything you need if I hadn't already had the HD bars on my other rack and wanted to be able to transfer them to this rack I probably wouldn't have went to this expense because I think they are overpriced.AS far as etrailer is concerned I always receive great service and products and they are always well packaged and never damaged by poor delivery care and always fast delivery speed.
I put it with the Timberline system and worked great
Fast shipping and great updates on my items. Thank you!
The roof rack works well. The only problem I have is noise and while I'm carrying a ladder there is none. I figured if I take the ladder off I'll split a piece of pvc pipe and mount that on the front of it. But they work well for what I needed for work. The service from etrailer was excellant. I dealt with Carol and she did a very good job in helping me.
I choose etrailer simply because they mailed to APO. I’m a AD SM, and a lot of companies don’t shop to APO. As soon as I ordered my product, I received an email as a courtesy from etrailer letting me know I had an individual that would be tracking my product every step of the way, reassuring a smooth process. Their site functionality was easy, their customer service was great. I wanted to know if they had bike racks that would fit my cross bars, I got a email right away with a suggestion and a link that would fit my needs. I’ll definitely order from etrailer if I ever need to again.
All parts of adapter were not needed. Instructions were a little unclear.
Great UX for finding the options matching my car, and the baseline towers work great. Simple straightforward site, will plan to use them again when needed.
For those also buying crossbars for cars without roof rails, recommend taking a silver sharpie and marking the placement of the crossbars on the weather seal at the top of the door openings. Makes putting them back on way less of a hassle if you don’t want them on 24/7.
They fit perfectlly and solidly on my 2021 Toyota Highlander. The instructions are clear and entirely accurate.
Really easy to install & work as specified. So happy with the customer support/service at etrailer.
Required for Yakima HD crossbars using timberland tower system.
These are a must for HD bars and the shipping was fast! I wish there was some way to know I had to get these because they are not included.
Great product and even better was the service with etrailer! These guys make it happen and delivery was super fast. Thanks for a fantastic experience, will be a return customer.

Great product haven’t had any issues with it. Would highly recommend that anyone that’s looking for a roof rack system and a great seller at etrailer
This item was just a component of a 4 or 5-part order that I have been working on in recent months. All of the items would receive 5-stars along with the eTrailer fulfillment, customer service, and video product review/installation teams. I appreciate your commitment to outstanding service.
I ordered the Yakima roof rack for a 2019 Hyundai Ioniq. I went with the heavy duty one for extra strength but it is quite a bit thicker, likely increasing wind noise. So I might have chosen the aerodynamic lighter weight one if I was to do it again. Also, I needed to get larger bolts for my kayak holder to get around the crossbar. The instructions and video on website were very helpful but they did not explain well how to adjust the toe and pitch. For the toe adjustment, you have to push the metal post with the tool before tightening. That was not obvious. For the pitch, it helped to do that once the towers are attached to crossbar. Then you can tilt tower while cross bar is laying flat (upside down). I ended up having to add tilt on both front and back crossbars for them to be flat when installed. Website said only front one would need to be pitched. I am very pleased with the look and sturdiness of the product. My Hyundai Dealer had zero options for this car.
Customer service was excellent, they called me to tell me one item was backordered and how long it would be. Package was shipped with enough packing material. Install was pretty easy, some of the Yakima measurements in the manual are a couple inches off but no big deal. This will be used to carry a box for when the family takes trips. Can pile all the luggage up top and have more room in the car. I would recommend the Yakima corebar roof rack and etrailer! Their price was lower than 2 other sites I checked.
easy install. Worked as advertised
Excellent customer service and prompt delivery. They even followed up to make sure everything was correct with my order. I highly recommend ETrailer!
Works perfect for our SUP with the tie down loops. Great for building materials as well. Looks great as well.
Solid and well made products, easy to i nstall.
Perfect and thank you for great price & fast delivery!
