This Yakima BaseLine roof rack gives you a solid foundation for hauling everything from kayaks to cargo boxes. It includes two 60" long JetStream aluminum crossbars, four BaseLine towers, and a custom fit kit made for naked roofs. The sturdy construction and 165-lb weight capacity let you load up confidently for longer trips, whether it’s gear for the water or luggage for the open road.
Long drives are quieter thanks to the aero-style JetStream crossbars. The shape of the bars helps air move smoothly over the top of your vehicle to reduce drag and noise. Rubber strips in the top channels also help cut down on whistling and vibration so your ride feels calmer and more refined without the constant drone of wind resistance.
Most crossbars require trimming rubber strips when adding accessories, but these bars take away that frustration. The push-down design lets you press your hardware directly into the top channels without cutting anything. Once your accessory is mounted, the strip closes back around it to keep out noise and vibration—simple, clean, and ready for your next setup.
Whether you’re heading out for a weekend paddle or packing up for a camping trip, these crossbars work with most universal cargo, water, snow, and bike carriers. The channel-mount and clamp-around options mean you can use a wide range of accessories from different brands without needing new bars each time. It’s a flexible system that keeps up with every season’s adventure.
You can add Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores—sold separately—to help protect your rack setup from theft. With them installed, you’ll have peace of mind leaving your gear mounted overnight or while making a quick stop along the way.

Hi, the company, good profesinal service. The product, all I pay was there. Very easy to install. Thanks Bless
We had to wait on stock a little longer than expected BUT etrailer kept me informed of the progress. Once I received the products installation was a breeze thanks to the instructional videos.
Great service. Hally took good care of me. Letting me know when the order was processed, shipped, and delivered. When I had an issue, taken care of immediately. The product itself is as expected and with great Yakima quality.
Great product... love that fact that I can take the bars on and off without having to disassemble the system. Very convenient when not its not being used.
Solid build quality and easy installation on my '21 Mazda CX-5.
Great product fast shipping
The roof rack is great. Solid.
Roof rack parts were ordered correctly and shipped quickly.
Follow the instructions, and you can't go wrong on the self installation
Ackage came 2 days early the install was somewhat easy (did it by myself)
Did not get to mount anything to it but seems really sturdy. One thing I can say is mark out your mounting points with provided stickers then put up and make adjustments to the roof rack.
Yakima is always great, the bars are just right for my kayaks and look great too.
Happy with the purchase. Crossbars shipped and received quickly.
Your notice of schemes was a lot better than the yakima site provided. They did not suggest the scheme you did.
But when the products arrived, the instructions were by yakima. Generally worked as instructed except the tower to tower transverse mounting dimensions needed to be tweaked for a perfect fit.
Easy to install and sturdy. I carry a 9' pontoon boat on my camper shell using this rack at freeway speeds with no problems.
So far so good. Purchased these towers to use on a 2022 GMC Canyon with HD bars that I already had, primarily to carry my canoe. Yakima's fitting instructions worked perfectly and the whole system seems really solid.
Easy to install and met my need for hauling a kayak.
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.
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. These bars are much quieter than traditional round bars and worth the added expense.
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!!
Strong, Solid Bars, Super Light, and really easy to install!
These bars worked great for the roof rack on our truck. Thank you!
Really easy to install & work as specified. So happy with the customer support/service at etrailer.
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.
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
