When you’re hauling kayaks, tents, or heavy gear, a rack that can handle real weight makes all the difference. The Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack uses heavy-duty aluminum crossbars with a 500-lb weight capacity, giving you the strength and stability you need for long trips or rugged adventures. These 68" long bars are built for demanding use and keep everything secure from start to finish.
Nothing ruins a long drive like constant wind noise. The rubberized strips in the top channels help cut down on whistling and drag, so your highway drives stay quieter and more comfortable. The aerodynamic design works to reduce resistance, meaning less vibration from the roof and a smoother overall ride.
No matter what you’re hauling—bikes, kayaks, skis, or a cargo box—these bars are ready for it. The HD crossbars work with both channel-mount accessories and clamp-on attachments, so you can use the gear you already own or add new setups later. This versatility keeps your rack adaptable for every season’s adventure.
Getting your gear strapped down shouldn’t be complicated. Each bar includes integrated tie-down points on the endcaps that make it simple to run straps or cords for kayaks or cargo boxes. You’ll spend less time fussing with setup and more time on the road or in the water knowing everything is firmly in place.
When you park at a trailhead or overnight stop, you can add Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately) to deter theft of your roof rack. It’s an easy upgrade that keeps your investment secure while you’re out exploring.

Ratings & Reviews
These aerodynamic racks are strong and quiet and work perfectly with the adjustable supports. The T-slots allow several accessory items to be installed bith above and below the crossbars. Love them.
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.
I put it with the Timberline system and worked great
Fast shipping and great updates on my items. Thank you!
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.
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.
All parts of adapter were not needed. Instructions were a little unclear.
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.
Ordered the Yakima HD overhaul rack system and needed to get another set to customize my mollie gear system. Worked out great. Yakima is one of the top brands
My local vendor here in Hawaii had everything I needed for my rack install except 2 pairs of the Yakima HD Crossbars. Due to supply chain issues, it was unknown when the would come in. etrailer to the rescue. HD bars we’re in stock. Site navigation, price, checkout, and shipping were excellent. Yakima HD Crossbars are excellent. Thanks to etrailer, I was able to finish my rack project.
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
