When you’re hauling serious gear—kayaks, tents, lumber, or cargo boxes—you need strength you can trust. These heavy-duty aluminum crossbars hold up to 500 lbs while keeping things stable and secure on long trips. The strong build inspires confidence whether you’re heading to the lake or loading up for a weekend away.
This rack gives you flexibility no matter what kind of gear you’re carrying. The HD crossbars work with accessories that mount in the top channels or clamp around the bars. That means you can use your favorite carriers for bikes, skis, or cargo boxes without worrying about compatibility. You can switch between setups quickly when adventure calls.
No one wants to listen to wind noise for hours on the highway. The rubberized strips built into the top channels help reduce wind noise and drag so your drives feel smoother and quieter. It’s a simple detail that makes long hauls more comfortable and less tiring.
Sometimes the best solutions are built right in. Each endcap includes integrated tie-down points that make it easy to secure ropes, straps, or cords directly to the bar ends. You don’t have to hunt for anchor spots or worry about loose ends when your load is strapped tight and ready for the road.
You can add Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately) to keep the rack secured when your vehicle is parked. It’s an easy way to protect your investment and travel with extra peace of mind wherever the trip takes you.
Ratings & Reviews
Bought kayak racks. Took a while to put together, but they are very high quality. etrailer send a wrong part (digits on the part number were reversed), but it was very easy to get this corrected and I received the correct part in less than a week. I even spoke to someone on a Saturday afternoon about the mix up who was very pleasant! They have my vote.
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.
Love my roof rakes just put them back on for this seasons kayaking very easy application was able to apply them myself
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.
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!
Good inventory choices, excellent customer service with advice on vehicle compatibility, and prompt shipment. I'm a repeat customer at etrailer for good reason!
Right part, quick shipping. Thank you!
Rack is still on the car one year later. Yakima doesn’t have a replacement cover for the tower, which is flimsy.
