This Yakima BaseLine roof rack gives you the space you need for hauling gear—whether it’s a kayak, canoe, or cargo box. The full system includes two 60" JetStream crossbars, four BaseLine towers, and a custom fit kit, so you’re ready to load up and go. The aluminum construction keeps things strong yet lightweight, with a 165-lb weight capacity that’s plenty for weekend trips or extended travel.
Long drives can get noisy when the wind hits your roof rack. These JetStream crossbars are designed with an aero shape to help smooth airflow and reduce that sound. Rubber strips in the top channels press down around your mounts to seal gaps and cut down on whistling and vibration, keeping things quiet and stable at highway speeds.
Mounting accessories doesn’t have to mean cutting rubber strips to fit. The JetStream design uses push-down rubber channel strips that flex as you install your carriers or clamps—no trimming or guesswork required. Once your gear is mounted, the strips close back around the hardware to keep things clean and protected from wind and weather.
Whether it’s summer water sports or winter skiing, these aero-style crossbars work with most universal cargo, water, snow, and bike carriers. You can attach channel-mount accessories that slide into the top track or clamp-on gear that wraps around the bar. It’s a flexible setup that lets you use the equipment you already have for any season.
When you stop for food or a night on the road, you can secure your rack with Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately). They deter theft by locking the towers in place, giving you peace of mind when you leave your vehicle loaded up and unattended.
Ratings & Reviews
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 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.
Great product fast shipping
Solid build quality and easy installation on my '21 Mazda CX-5.
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.
Standard Yakima Equipmemt. Availability is sketchy but etrailer.com had it in stock!
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.
The roof rack came packaged nicely and the instructions were simple to follow. I installed it in about an hour and we have already used it this past Memorial Day weekend. My wife loves the way it looks on her Mazda. Much better than the factory rack
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.
Easy to install and met my need for hauling a kayak.
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 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!!
I waited several weeks for roof rack to arrive after ordering online. I am accustomed to Thule racks, but could not find any towers/bases to fit the 2019 Santa Fe. Once here, the Yakima rack mounted with ease and I look forward to hauling kayaks or basket on the roof.
Thank you etrailer.
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
