This Yakima BaseLine roof rack gives you everything you need in one setup—two 60" JetStream crossbars, four BaseLine towers, and a custom fit kit. It’s built for vehicles without factory rails, so you can easily add carrying capacity without extra parts or drilling. The aluminum construction keeps it lightweight but strong, handling up to 165 lbs while staying rust-free over time.
Wind noise can take the fun out of a long drive. These aero-style JetStream crossbars are shaped to cut through the air, reducing drag and vibration. The rubber strips that sit in the top channels help quiet things down even more, so you can load your gear and still enjoy a smooth, quiet ride.
Mounting accessories doesn’t have to mean cutting or trimming rubber inserts. The push-down rubber strips in the top channels let you press your hardware right into place—no trimming needed. When you remove the accessories, the strips close back up, keeping the bars sealed against wind and weather.
Whether it’s a cargo box for a road trip or kayaks and bikes for weekend adventures, this rack has you covered. The JetStream bars work with most universal cargo, water, snow, and bike carriers. Channel-mount and clamp-on gear both fit easily, giving you flexibility for whatever you’re hauling next.
If you want peace of mind when parked at a trailhead or rest stop, this system is ready for Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately). You can lock down the towers using one key for all your Yakima gear, adding another layer of security to your setup.

Ratings & Reviews
The Yakima roof rack system is great. Highly recommend!
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.
Easy to install and sturdy. I carry a 9' pontoon boat on my camper shell using this rack at freeway speeds with no problems.
I have truly enjoyed this system. It allows our family of five plus our dog to stretch out in the car while our gear is secured on the roof. It takes a bit to mount it but I want it secure and it does fine with a roof box at interstate speeds. I absolutely recommend this system.
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.
I have ordered several Yakima rack parts and a front hitch for my '13 Ram truck. The sales staff was very helpful in getting me the correct parts and with timely shipping. The items arrived as predicted and are correct. They fit as they should and install was straight forward. I recommend these products and the service was excellent.

etrailer came through with speed and quality. A couple of other websites that I looked at could not supply all the needed equipment ("on backorder") in a timely manner. As you know, getting "most" of the roof rack is the same as getting "none" of the rack. So I was very pleased to see that etrailer could send me everything quickly. It is exactly what I needed.
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!!
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.

etrailer did an amazing job of having their collective together with regards to my latest order for a roof top rack. First of all, when you go to one these manufacturer websites, either thule, or Yakima, you realize just how complicated this task can be. etrailer does all of that for you. Package arrived earlier than expected and everything was correct the first time. I installed the product myself in under an hour. Done, Done, and Done.
thanks etrailer
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
From start to finish, the folks at etrailer -- and I spoke to several people there, so it was a consistent corporate vibe -- were fantastic to deal with.
There were delays in getting my product that were on the supplier side and out of eTrailer's control, yet etrailer folks kept me up to date and also worked on a customized solution.
My goal was to be able to carry my surfboard on the roof of our 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe to the beach more than 3 hours away. But the particular model we had had no existing racks, no recessed areas, nothing to fix racks to. Not even the dealer had a solution. I was sh*t out of luck.
But etrailer hooked me up. The racks did take me a while to put on, but most of that time was fine tuning to reduce “hum” while driving. I’m very happy with them.
Thanks to etrailer, I have gone surfing and can go surfing whenever I'd like to.
I'm a repeat customer at etrailer several times now, and with good reason. They have provided what I needed in terms of both product and assistance reliably and promptly. The best online supplier I have found.
The clips are very easy to install and good fit on my 2020 Ram 1500.
I was converting a roof rack from my Jeep Cherokee (factory rails) to my RAM 2500 truck (naked roof). While I could use my old Jetstream crossbars, I needed new towers and clips for the truck. There was an error in my original order, the representative thought she was sending me two pairs of clips. I understand the mixup because the Clip box said two meaning 2 clips rather than two pair. etrailer sent another pair immediately and waived the shipping. I like customer service is available and knowledgable. I would give them a five if they hadn't mixed up the first order.
