Specs:
The bases of these Rhino Rack legs easily mount into your Rhino-Rack RTC- or RT-style roof rack tracks with included hardware. Just slide the nuts into the tracks, line up the mounting plates, and bolt the bases down. After this initial setup, you can leave the bases in the tracks.
Molded inserts help keep out dirt and provide a finished look when there are no legs and crossbars installed. To install a leg, simply remove the insert.
Once you've set up the bases, installing and removing your roof rack is easy. The Quick Mount legs have an integrated trigger system that creates an easy, tool-free installation.
To install a leg in a base, pinch and slide the internal triggers together.
Lower the leg onto the base and slide the internal triggers apart to secure the leg in the base.
Once the leg is installed in the base, replace the cover and lock it to help secure the system to your roof.

As always buying from trailer is easy, Terri N make the experience much better, from order to delivery. Terri ensured compatibility with existing hardware, and that everything needed is included.
The Rhino system is an easy install, the fit of the T-slot plate style nuts was tight, eliminating the damage that can occur with loose fitting slot inserts. Assembly can be completed on or off vehicle, as long as all accessories are fitted first. If done off vehicle, accurate measurements will be needed for the base fitment.
We paired the Rhino system with 1up USA bike racks, and a Yakima box.
These are excellent! Check out my YouTube channel, Road and Reel, to see how I used the to carry 4 bikes above my Retrax Tonneau cover.

I love the Rhino-Rack Quick Mount Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars. At first they were a pain to crossbar on, but they I used my thumbs correctly on the lock, and haven't had an issue since the first alignment. They really served their purpose and lifted the old Sears Sport 20-SV cargo top carrier off of the roof for easier mounting and for now hold the kayaks. I do need longer crossbars, but that's a future problem that etrailer.com will be glad to provide a solution to.
Awesome customer service! Professional people. Ill be honest, sent incomplete product first time. Made a phone call, took care of me. Carol C, hands down only reason I will continue to purchase from etrailer. Been a customer for years, work in customer service myself, so feel real good when someone can fix and make happy there customers!
These quick release feet are a great addition to my 2022 Hyundai Santa Cruz. I will say that I had to modify the T-nuts by cutting off about 1/4" off each of then. Pretty simple modification to get the nuts to fit the oem track. Highly recommend these so much easier than the oem thule feet!
I bought these racks for my Ford Transit and I couldn't be happier with the racks or the service from trailer. The rhino racks added a nice touch to an awkward looking van with its great looks and perfect functionality. Reading reviews about other racks making howling noises while driving made me a little hesitant , but am pleased to say, no noise whatsoever. I've added a basket to the racks and everything has worked perfectly. We do a lot of traveling,(2 adults,4 kids, 3 dogs) and the racks have provided exactly what we needed. Thanks etrailer for the best price and great service
Not as good as yakima. Takes longer to adjust positions.
Great racks. Just used to mount our car top carrier and traveled 10,751 across the US and back. Speeds were often at 75 mph + and rack performed flawlessly.
My shipping was super fast! Rack was slightly damaged from shipping. A new part to replace the damaged part was promptly sent out for me. Very happy with the service.
Very nice. Purchased these crossbars and associated parts to attach to an ARE cap on a 2015 Tacoma. Looks great, fits well (had to file track nuts a bit to fit into the pre-installed tracks on the cap), but all in all very pleased with the results. etrailer staff very helpful in lining up the necessary parts.
Thanks for all your help! Project turned out awesome! (Pics attached).. Easier to mount directly to bed sides.
These assembled easily and are much stronger than the factory system on my 2004 Chevy Trailblazer. I had a little bit of a problem trying to seat the pins in the saddles but other than that these are very secure.
The instructions tell you to slide the large hex nuts into your roof rail tracks and then assemble the rack leg base to the nuts. This is fairly difficult to do as the bolts were not long enough to reach the nuts resting in the tracks and you can't get your fingers in there to lift them. It was much easier to assemble the complete track leg bases with the Hex nuts installed loose then slide them onto the tracks and into position.
If your tracks are elevated off your roof at all you will find that these bases make any bars you add much higher than your OEM roof rack, the bars are probably 3 inches higher than my OEM bars although this is not an issue for me it may be something you may want to consider.
I had a hard time finding mounts for the original side rails for my trailblazer and had to pay more for the Rhino Racks but the quality is there.
The Vortex Crossbars slide right on to these with no issues.
One tip; have a step ladder on each side of the vehicle because you will be going back and forth to each side as you install these.
Jeff S - 08/03/2018I purchased a used gray topper for my Tundra, repainted it to match my truck, and purchased from you the mounts and rails to put on top of it. The entire project was GREAT, and the and rails have just topped it off (see what I did there?) with a great look and very functional utility to add some long storage capability to a very short-bed truck. Thank you so much, it was expensive, but the quality is fantastic and the look is very sharp!
I have had them installed for a year now and they perform wonderfully. The delivery was fast too!
The rack is functional and looks good on my van.
Great product, good design. Love the quick release action and the security. Pretty sure plastic will fade over time but I’m sure it keeps cost now.
Performed exactly how they should. It’s refreshing to get quality products delivered fast
Drove over the mountain to go biking last weekend and it did a great job. I will definitely recommend it to family and friends.
THis is a great solution for easy bar r emoval.
Rhino Rack makes great quality racks and etrailer has consistently good prices in them.
Great service and price!
I am very pleased with this Rhino Rack product. It fits perfectly on my 2019 Ram 2500 (on the t-track of my tonneau cover). Just what I was looking for.
I don't use it as often as I would like but after a year it is still attached and works as intended. The rubber strips to reduce noise came partially loose, but with some fiddling they seem to be hanging in there now. For my vehicle at least, I used a professional (local auto shop) to install as I was not going to take a drill to my car.
