Ordered Yakima Load Warrior Roof Rack Cargo Carrier and Cargo Net for my 2021 Telluride. Both products received as described. Roof rack instructions were clear and assembly straightforward. Had to slightly adjust recommended spacing between OEM crossbars to accommodate Yakima requirements - 30" vs 33". Thinness of OEM crossbars result in the threaded ends of the bolts that hold on support brackets sitting a little too high, potentially presenting a cargo scratching hazard. All in all, however, very pleased with product.

Well done Yakima and etrailer. Great product and great service. The product is well made (in Taiwan....not China) and the parts and instruction video made it relatively" easy to install. Two people helps to install it more readily. The wind diffuser in the front greatly reduces wind noise. All in all very happy and glad I bought through etrailer. Service was excellent and delivery prompt.

Greetings, I am giving these items 3? Because I was offered alternative products that did not fit together. Originally, I intended to purchase a roof rack cargo basket type and a spare tire holder from Yakima manufacturer that go well together, but one of them wasn’t in stock. So, after 3 weeks waiting time, I was offered alternative items via etrailer website, and I accepted them…after all, they are the experts. I got the recommended items through UPS, then I assembled them by myself. The roof rack cargo basket fit well on my car, but the spare tire holder was not compatible with the roof rack cargo basket. They couldn’t be assembled together. I submitted my claim to return the spare tire holder. Now, I have not achieved my goal to carry my spare tire. Understanding the needs and expectations of your customers is critical to maximize customer satisfaction. I am sure both products are good, but they are not compatible together, even though they were manufactured by the same company. Distributors should know better! I returned one item and I hope to be refunded.

It was a breeze to install on my 2018 Ford Explorer. Two reasons why I bought this. #1 the price for the size of the rack #2 The ability to adjust the universal mounting brackets from front to back or length wise. I had tried another brand rack but the mounting brackets were from side to side and did not line up with my fixed cross bars. I used silicone to seal all the connection points. I have not seen any rust as of yet. I like it so much that I might sell this one locally and upgrade to next size up.I've had compliments on the appearance also. with the plus up sized tires and the rack. It has given the Explorer a sportier look. I definitely would recommend this rack to anyone.

The RocketBox Pro14 cargo box was a great acquisition. It worked perfectly with my factory rooftop rack on my 2004 Toyota 4Runner. It remained firmly in place for a 1,000 mile plus trip to Florida and on our return. I could not be more satisfied as the box handled a fair amount of cargo freeing up space for two passengers and a dog. Will be loading up again this year for another trip to Florida. The box is easy to load and fasten and is most secure when in place.
Worth every penny. Used the cargo box atop my 2004 4Runner with factory carrier racks for two trips to Florida and back to MD. NO issues. All contents remained dry and safe, that’s over 4,000 miles of travel.

I've taken one 1500 mile trip so far with the Yakima RocketBox Pro 14 mounted on my RAV4. I found the box to be quiet and not to have much impact on gas mileage. I lost maybe 1 mpg with it mounted to my flush mounted Whisperbars. I drove through some very heavy rain and had a minimal amount of water inside under a thin rubber mat I had placed on the bottom of the box; none on my luggage got wet. This box works great to give me more carrying capacity when traveling with my two crated Dobermans.
Ive taken the cargo box on a couple more trips and its worked great. I really like that it can be opened from both sides. That feature comes in handy when someone parks too close to you on one side. You have the option to unload your gear from the other side.

Thank you for the video on installation, it really helped clear up questions after reading the provided instructions. My instructions specify 3 inches and not 4 for the back window clips, but otherwise they were just what I needed.

This product doesn’t meet my minimum level of quality. The plastic is so soft and pliable, it doesn’t hold its shape when open. The springs designed to help lift and hold the top open are too short and too weak.one of the two locks doesn’t turn with either key, the other works with both. Overall, it is crap. I’m planning on fabricating supports to help it hold its shape, take the springs off and throw them away, make a mount for gas lift struts. At that

It took awhile to get the skybox in stock but etrailer stayed on top of it and kept me informed every step of the way. I know supply chains are delayed everywhere but they never gave up. Special shout out to Erica at etrailer.

This box was perfect! Added an enormous amount of additional storage capacity for our Rav4. I was able to fit one large "checked-bag", a "carry-on", a pack-n-play, small storage bin, bungee cords + some kids toys all on the roof! Standard Toyota cross-bars. Installation was super simple; the box closes very securely and stays quite snug to the installed position. It was a bit unnerving at first carrying so much on the roof (i've seen the horror stories of boxes opening/flying off at 80MPH) but this box held up perfect! We averaged about 75-80MPH over 3000 miles of driving with maybe 100lbs of load in the box. Fuel economy dropped by a few mpg (36 -> 33) but overall this was a great purchase. etrailer was a fantastic retailer as well! Delivery estimates were right on schedule, and delivery was relatively straight-forward.

Just what the doctor ordered. The unit came by UPS freight and was delivered to the curb outside my house. My friend and I unboxed and installed the unit on the roof of my SUV in about 20 minutes. The unit is a bit flimsy, but once it is mounted, it is sturdy. Driving around town, the wind noise is minimal and there is very little drag. This unit will be used to carry the larger objects that won't fit into the rear of the SUV. Overall I am pleased with the build quality and the ease of installation.
Great, The cargo box is holding up well and has traveled almost 11,000 miles

Love it! It's big enough to fit a bike carrier and a cargo bag on top of my MINI. Easy to assemble and install, solid construction. Great value for your money. If I have a gripe it's that the wind fairing on the front is VERY thin/fragile. I caught it with my bike tire when loading one day and the corner snapped right off like nothing. It's only about $XXX for the replacement.

Installation went smoothly. Took about 2 hours. Fits our 2019 MDX perfectly.
Works well but after a year the basket is starting to show surface rust. We’re in New England on the coast so perhaps salt are is an issue in the long term.

Rhino Rack Roof Basket Review - 2017 Nissan Altima
Today in our 2017 Nissan Altima we're gonna be test-fitting the Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Cargo Basket, part number RMCB. This measures 47 inches long by 35 inches wide and has a carrying capacity of 165 pounds, although you always want to double-check with your vehicle's manual to make sure your vehicle can withstand that weight on the roof. This is great for carrying a wide variety of things that you don't want to keep inside, or to make more room inside for you and your family as you travel. You can carry anything from camping equipment, to sporting goods equipment, to coolers. We already have it for the most part installed on our roof. We'll go ahead and show you how the rest of it goes on. The first step when you put these on is to actually put these plastic brackets here in between the crossbar itself and the cargo basket, and it lines up along the bars here. Next, we'll put in this metal piece here.
Curt 17x46 Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2014 Nissan Altima
Today on our 2014 Nissan Altima we're going to be doing a test fit on the 17 by 46 CURT cargo carrier. This has been designed for use with 2" hitches or 1-1/4". It has up to a 500 weight capacity. The part number on it is C18145. We're going to be using it in a class one hitch today. That is going to limit the overall capacity of the carrier down to 200 pounds.
Nissan Altima Cargo Carriers Questions
- We can help you with a roof rack for your 2015 Nissan Altima and with a rack-mount roof cargo carrier.
The top value in a roof rack comes from Rhino-Rack, their 2500-Series square bar rack made of parts # RRVA126B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK381. This rack system includes locks, offers a 165-lb weight capacity and thanks to its square bars it will be compatible with many rooftop accessory carriers. There are costlier racks available - just check the linked page that shows all of...
view full answer... - The tongue weight for any vehicle would take into account the weight of any hitch mounted carrier added to the weight of any cargo placed in or on the carrier.
Both the cargo carriers, part # C18110 and part # C18145 weigh 30-lbs, so you just need to decide which style carrier best suits your needs.
The # C18110 has an inside measurement of 47-11/16 inches long x 19-1/2 inches wide, and 2-3/4 inch side rail height. This carrier has an angled shank with a 3-3/4 inch rise,...
view full answer... - I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, the Yakima SkyBox 21 # Y07337 (or any other cargo box we carry) will not accommodate the 22-inch height of your shipping box. However, the Yakima SkyBox 21 will accommodate your travel case and gold clubs.
For an alternative way to travel with your travel box, a hitch-mounted carrier is the way to go. I recommend the 19x47 Curt Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Steel - 300 lbs # C18110. With the Curt Cargo Carrier, you will...
view full answer... - We offer many roof rack options for your 2013 Nissan Altima 4-Door Sedan with moon roof; and we also offer a range of rooftop cargo products, some of which can be mounted to a roof rack and others which require only roof side rails. Since your Altima has a moon roof it is indeed a good idea to install a roof rack to support the cargo carrier, but if your cargo needs do not require a high weight capacity, and if your Altima owner's manual does not prohibit fabric bags like the...
view full answer... - Yes. You can use something like the 20 X 47 Reese Carrier # 63155, which is compatible with 1-1/4" hitches. This carrier weighs around 44-lbs so it would allow you to carry roughly 156-lbs of cargo on the back of your 2013 Nissan Altima, but I do recommend confirming the tongue weight capacity in your owner's manual to be sure it is 200-lbs.
While I think your best choice is above, you could also look at the other 2 compatible carriers, the # C18145 and the # C18110. These...
view full answer... - Actually the Curt Cargo Carrier part # C18145 that you referenced can fit 1-1/4 inch hitches like what you have so it would work well for you. It can fit both Class I and Class II hitches so it should work well.
Check out the review video I attached for this carrier as well.
view full answer... - The MaxxTow 30x50 Wheelchair Carrier # MT70260 that you mentioned requires a 2" hitch receiver opening. The only receivers available for your 2010 Nissan Altima are 1-1/4", such as the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24796. In order to use the MaxxTow carrier you will need to use Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" # HTAD; this will convert your 1-1/4" receiver to 2". Keep in mind that this adapter will reduce your hitch's tongue weight capacity by 50%, so if you are using the Draw-Tite...
