Question:
I ordered a roof rack and fit kit for my 2015 Traverse LTZ and it all says naked roof, but my Traverse has flush rails. I was hoping to avoid putting brackets in the door jambs. Are my existing rails basically useless? For the rhino rack and aero bars I ordered?

Expert Reply:
Yes, I see that you ordered the Rhino # RRVA137B-2 Cross bars, Rhino # RRRLKVA legs, and Rhino # DK297 fit kit for your Chevy. I also see that, although they are listed in the "with flush mounted rails" section that these do in fact clamp to the door jambs. There are two other options, but they also attach the same way. I think the meaning is that these can mount to your Chevy DESPITE having flush rails.
The exception is SeaSucker # 298-SX6000B Monkey Bars roof rack. Some think they seem gimmicky, but I have seen videos of cars being lifted off the ground with these. They are quick and easy to install and remove. the racks are light to handle, yet support 150 pounds on your roof.
