Hi everyone. It's Evangeline, right here at etrailer. And today, we'll be taking a look at our Inno Roof Rack System with the Inno Square Crossbars, the Inno Feet for Square Crossbars, and the Custom Fit Inno Fit Kit on our 2018 Chevrolet Traverse. So, this is the Square Roof Rack System from Inno. You have different options for your Chevrolet Traverse. You could get Aero Crossbars, which are that more modern crossbars, or you could get these Square Crossbars.
Some reasons you might like them, is maybe you have older accessories that can only fit around square crossbars, or if you want something lighter, or if you want more overhang and have the ability to do so, you can with square crossbars. You do get an overhang of 2 1/4 inches of overhang from the tower to the endcap. So, this will determine, if you do have other accessories, let's say kayak carriers that require a little bit more overhang, you can very easily upgrade to longer crossbars if needed. The crossbars themselves have a weight capacity of 220 pounds, which is very impressive. But remember, you are limited by whichever is lower of the weight capacities, be it your crossbars, your towers, or your actual roof weight capacity.
In our case here, our Inno Feet for Square Crossbars has a weight capacity of 132 pounds. So, that's kinda being pretty much a limiting factor. Now, this is a lockable system. Meaning once you have these keys, you could just put them right into your towers, and this allows you to loosen or tighten down your towers and just help deter theft of your roof rack. While the Traverse can have raised side rails, or it might also not have raised side rails, in our case here, this is a naked roof, so we do have this custom-fit kit for our roof.
Now, the downside to that is you are limited to a very specific spot on your vehicle to place those towers, which gives you a crossbar spread of 26 inches from this point to that point. And that will be the crossbar spread that you will have to use with whatever accessory you have on there. I am five two, and as you can see, it's kind of a reach to get onto the top of our Chevrolet Traverse, which may be something worth considering with getting more or less overhang. Another thing I recommend adding to your repertoire is maybe you should take a look at the Moki doorstep, which hooks right into your door and gives you a little extra height, which may be useful as you have a roof box, a roof basket, or let's say you're strapping down a kayak. Now, let's talk about roof clearance.
So, first is the clearance from the lower crossbar to the top of your roof. That's gonna be the clearance for your clamps, or if you have skis and snowboards, you wanna see if there's enough space for your bindings before they hit your roof. So, measuring from the roof to the crossbar, it's at about 3 1/4 inches. As for the roof height this adds to your vehicle, it sits at about 4 1/4 inches. The crossbar itself is made of steel, but it is coated with this rubberized material, which is gonna help with scuffs and scratches, but also keeps this system on the lighter side as it's on your booth, but while maintaining its great weight capacity. So, my personal thoughts about our Inno Roof Rack here on our Traverse, is I do like the Aero Style Crossbars, simply because I like to use the more modern accessories that utilize the T-track channels, and things like that. But, I do understand that others still have accessories that work best with the square design on your more traditional crossbars. Also, they do sit a little bit more low profile, and they're on the easier side to throw on, compared to the Aero Crossbars from Inno. So, you have your pros, you have your cons. I personally recommend upgrading to the aero system if you can, but if you need that extra overhang, this is still a good system that will work on your Traverse. So, the install process is kind of involved, but that's what this video is for, right Because, we wanna make sure that you get the correct rear crossbar and the front crossbars in the correct places. You're gonna have three sets of things, which is gonna be your fit kit, and those have different foot pads with different numbers. Then you have your towers, and these are gonna be what's holding your crossbars up in place. And finally, you have your square crossbars. So, first we're gonna set up the fit kit with the tower. Notice how your fit kit has a number underneath the foot pad. So this is four two seven, and that's gonna go on your front crossbar. And then you're gonna have another set, which is four one nine, and those go on the rear crossbars. Since I already installed the rear crossbar, we can install the front crossbar together. So, get your foot pad and just pop it into the tower itself. Once those foot pads are set up and secure, you're then going to set up the fit hooks. So, you may have a lock on the end of your tower, kinda like what I have here, so that has to be unthreaded first. Once that's out, you also have this lock, and that's gonna go to the side as you place your hook in, kinda fit that into place, and then get this lined up as well. And do the same thing on the other tower. With your towers now set up, you can then attach the towers to your crossbar. So, notice where this lock is. If you push that lock down, you can see how the bracket on the top of your tower goes down as well. So, get that lined up and just push that down, because that's gonna be what you'll use to attach your crossbar. Once you have that push down enough, it should slide right onto that crossbar. Now do the same on the other side, and then you can take some measurements. So, you're gonna measure the stay interior dimensions. And what that means, is measuring from one crossbar tower to the other crossbar tower. You're gonna get a specific length. That length is going to be inside your instructions. It's gonna be different for your front and your rear. So for your rear crossbar, which is this, it's going to be 47 1/4 inches long. To also make sure that your towers are in the right spots, Inno gives you the halfway mark instructions as well. So for your rear crossbar, it's gonna be from the center of the crossbar, there should be a marker on your crossbar, all the way to the end of the stay. It's going to be 23 5/8 inches to that point. So measure it and then address it accordingly. And now that we have our tower set to exactly where we want them to be, the next step is to put it onto our vehicle, but first let's take some measurements. So, you're gonna install your towers at a very specific point on your Chevrolet Traverse. So, for your rear tower it's going to be from the seam of your door, 21 3/4 inches to the center bolt of your tower. And then for your front crossbar, it's gonna be four inches from that seam towards the front of your vehicle. So, I have my friend, Tom, here, who's gonna help me out. We're gonna bring this up and over our vehicle, being very careful as we open the door, and then place it four inches away from that door seam. So, once you determined that it is four inches from that front seam, you're gonna then going to lift this hook up, and tighten this bolt down. It's a good amount of thread, so just keep going until it fully secures. Once you feel like you've gotten it tightened enough down, push this in, and then twist the lock to secure it. So, since that hook is custom-fit for your vehicle, once you do have it tightened down, don't be afraid to just slam your door on it, because it fits right in there. Don't forget to put the rubber endcaps onto your square crossbars. And once all four of those are in place, that's it for the install. And that was a look right here at our Inno Square Roof Rack system, here on our 2018 Chevrolet Traverse. My name is Evangeline, and I hope you enjoyed the journey..

What a valuable resource this has been for us. We have used it for hauling lumber, hay, ladders and tables......Great product thanks!
Missing Parts - I am missing two of the end-caps for the INB117. What is the deal with INNO quality control that it cannot get 4 of these in a box at the same time and tape it shut? I did a search on Google and apparently this a a known QC issue!
They look good the only problem is that the brackets that grip the rail are too straight so that the pads do not meet the roof and they bend the crossbar
Installation is easy. Just follow directions. Front bar parts are different than rear bar parts so you need to look at part numbers and use in correct location. Rack is only rated for 100 pounds but looks and feels much stronger than rating. As noted square bars do create lot of wind noise when driving. Purchase this product to carry my Canoe and it does that at almost $200 less than other rack systems on market. For me the square bars are better fit with ratchet straps to hold Canoe down. Hard to find ratchet strap with hook to fit areo bars.
Dislike. No way to level square bars. With car on level ground high point to high point on bars is level. But each bar is off by 1/8" front to back. Wish they were round bars.
Good morning so the order I got is amazing I have a old school thule roof rack that I needed the write stuff so can start putting bikes on my roof an my fishing gear or some small stuff for off roading an it works great I will be sure to be buying more stuff from this site great job with the shipping it was very fast an packaging was great it was easy to install an it looks great on my 03 Toyota tacoma thanks again
I got these to replace my OE roof racks. The square shape is perfect for Yakima Bowdown kayak racks. Solid!
These bars are excellent. I like the coating to protect whatever you're hauling. There is absolutely 0 flex with my kayak mounted, unlike the aluminum aero bars I upgraded from.
Really great value! No need to spend a lot on Thule. Even those these are square shaped I actually don't hear much road noise. Besides, you're gonna have music playing or riding with the windows down anyway. I would definitely buy these again.
Quick and easy. This roof rack was shipped quickly. Installation was super easy and it looks like it was made for my truck. Holds my canoe perfectly. Thank you!
One of the lesser expensive rack kits for the Mazda5. etrailer delivered excellent! They had items in stock and shipped quick. I finally had a chance to install it this evening. My only frustration was evening out the bars. Measure, adjust and measure and adjust. I'll look into getting a fairing to reduce wind noise.
Fit was good. Hauled a roof top carrier 2000 miles with no issues. Wind noise was minimal.
Been a month haven’t received them yet they are in stock but guess we are waiting for one item which it’s in stock date gets pushed back every day. And the company doesn’t let the customer know the date changes or when they will send it.
Easy to install. Installed with the wife in about 30 minutes with the Inno foot pads. No wind noise.
This is an excellent product. Well made. However, it comes in 3 separate packages with instructions for each. That is because some of the parts are specific to fit your vehicle. In my case, I have a 2015 Acura TLX sedan. It is important to read the directions that come with all of the components. While some of the parts look similar, they are not and must be put in the right place. Once I figured that out, it came together nicely. Attached is a photo of how the whole thing looks on my car.
Odelia was extremely helpful in helping me choose the right product. I had an end-cap that was missing and she sent me whole package of four. This is the kind of customer support one hopes to receive when deciding to spend a few hundred dollars on a product. I will definitely return to etrailer if I need another car rack for our other car.
Perfect Fitment for my 2012 Ford Escape, etrailer.com's fitment guide was spot on.
Good quality rack system, easy to assemble and install, works well, looks good, fair price, I'm very satisfied with this purchase. I appreciate the guidance I received from William B. at the beginning of my search for a roof rack to carry a canoe on my 2015 Honda Civic. Two thumbs up for this purchase.
Perfect Fitment for my 2012 Ford Escape, etrailer.com's fitment guide was spot on.
I got the whole kit...on Marc C's recommendation. He was so very patient and helpful! The kit is great. I am not so versed in doing such things so my neighbor put it on the car for me. He was just over and over again extolling the Praises of the instructions. He said they're the best ones he ever used. It fits on the car, it feels solid, and it looks great. I'm very very happy with it. Thank you so much!
Easy to install, great instructions, looks good, will use for bikes and kayaks, a welcome edition to our gas saver car
Waited till I put the new rack to work before review. Used it the first time today and it worked Great. Seems like a very durable rack system. Love that everything is rubber coated so it doesnt scratch the paint on your car. Installing instructions where a little confusing but found YouTube videos from etrailer on how to install exact rack system.
I am a fifty-four year old single woman and being able to install these roof racks by myself makes me feel empowered!!
I watched a video emailed with my delivery confirmation of an installation on a similar vehicle all the way through first, and then watched it again as I did the steps myself, pausing when I needed to.
The products appear to be of high quality, were packaged/shipped neatly and it was easy to organize everything for installation. I couldn't be happier!
Great Product! Shipping was very fast for free shipping, and product was packaged well. Installation was a breeze, and only took about 30 min. I am very pleased with my purchase!
Easy to install and have worked great so far!
