Today on our 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee we'll be test fitting the Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack with Euro Square Crossbars, part numbers ds1375b and dk234. Now to begin our test fit we've already gone ahead pre-assembled our crossbars and Fit Kit. The Fit Kit came with four rubber pads and four clamps. The bars also do come with the feet. The plastic pad for the foot can be attached to the foot in either direction indicated by the arrow.The instructions found in the Fit Kit do indicate which position the arrow will point. We'll now go ahead and attach the rubber foot from the Fit Kit to the plastic pad on our foot.
We can then undo the Allen bolt insert our clamp, reinsert the Allen bolt holding it in position. We're going to go ahead and leave these loose as this is how we'll clamp it to the vehicle.Each foot has an Allen bolt underneath here on the bar which will secure the foot to the bar. We followed the instructions placing our feet in the correct position on the bars. We'll now place the front crossbar on top of the roof and make sure that we do a measurement here which Rhino-Rack provides from the edge of the front door forward. This will be the location of the rear edge of our crossbar foot.
We'll do this on both sides of the vehicle to ensure that the crossbar's perpendicular with the vehicle.We can then use the included Allen tool to tighten down the two Allen bolts working our way back and forth to make sure that it stays centered on the vehicle. The only thing we have left to do is install the covers. We can then use the keys supplied with the bars to lock the covers in securing our crossbars to the vehicle. Once we have our front crossbar on we're ready to put on the rear crossbar.It's again assembled according to the instructions found within the Fit Kit. Now with our rear crossbar on top of the roof we'll again take another measurement.
This measurement is also provided by Rhino-Rack which will be from the center of the front crossbar to the center of the rear crossbar. This is the location of our rear crossbar. We'll make sure that the clamps go down into the door opening where we can then tighten down the Allen bolt working our way back and forth evenly to make sure that our rear crossbar is secure.Now that we have both crossbars on our roof rack systems secured and we're ready to load our accessories. That completes our test fit of the Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack with the Euro Square Crossbars using part numbers ds1375b and dk234 on our 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee.

This custom fit kit lets you mount 4 Rhino-Rack 2500 legs to your vehicle with a naked roof. Clamps mount to legs with bolts. Includes 4 clamps and 4 pads.Bought this rack for my jeep grand Cherokee seems like it would have been a great product.. however the instructions was so unclear, I soon realized I made a mistake buying this product. I was able to install it though I don’t believe it’s 100% correct. If my kayak falls off I’m gonna cry. If you’re thinking about buying this , DONT !
The product is great! I use it for skiing. Once you get the unit installed
it is snap to take off and reinstall. The only two issues that I have is
on occasion the wind generates a noise as it hits the rack. Usually this
happens around 65 mph. The other issue is I did not like the price. I am
familiar with what goes into making products. The rack should have not
cost more that $500. The company that makes it knows they can get that price
because people love their recreation.
The initial plan was to put them on only when needed.
Now being familiar with their custom fit and performance,They are on permanently. Racks on a Lexus? Who knew!
Awesome product! Fits like a glove on my 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited X. There is a slight whistling noise, but otherwise couldn’t be happier with the overall package!
Everything was good
Fit my 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the appropriate other feet and bars that the site listed. Install took about 2 hours total. The 'VA' measurement for feet position was about 9mm total off from a perfect fit, so I re-positioned them and it fit snug and looks GREAT. Hoping to get some use out of the rack soon.
This kit adapts the crossbar legs to my Jeep Grand Cherokee. Top quality parts, excellent fit with clear, easy to follow instructions. Measurements are included in this kit for ideal roof placement of the legs.
Muy bueno
Still need to put it on the car, but the quality looks great and it was here FAST!
Great service. Great delivery time
Easy install..specs sheet was spot on
This was a great purchase. I originally ordered roof crossbars from somewhere else and immediately returned them. They were a universal fit and were not secure at all when they were tightened down. They were from a third seller on Amazon. I found these on etrailer and I am glad that I made the purchase. I did not want to spend the money at first that these cost, but am glad that I did. The install was easy and the crossbars are very secure and hold up well with the cargo basket installed. They were well worth the money. Can't wait to try them out when we go camping. Thank you etrailer.
Ease of order, receipt, installation and excellent customer service is what I received in this order.
Thank you, e-trailer!
Takes a little while to assemble the rack bars.
The stickers are great I can mark the positions after measuring the distance between the bars.
One of the screws is underneath the bar; it is hard to reach to tighten the bars.
Finally, I got the roof rack installed and it looks good.
Pretty nice rack system. Held up to my 90lb canoe no problem. However a piece did fly off on the highway and the "locking" bar end cap can pull off super easy.
The directions were ok. There is some stuff you have to kind of figure out for yourself, mainly the roof trim. I plan to leave the rack on so I drilled theough the trim
Just followed all the etrailer website prompts for my naked roof Toyota Matrix and it set me up with the three packages needed- rails legs and fitkit. Installed easily enough. I like the little arrow stickers hidden in the door jams for fast re-install later. Held two 10’ kayaks on a 2 hr journey with ease.
This is a perfect fit for our 2015 Prius V with "naked" roof. Instructions were clear and accurate, and the bars are solid and able to support our canoe and kayak easily. We added the air deflector, as there was a bit of wind noise, but now there is none. Great product at much lower price than the big names.
Absolutely love the Rhino Rack. Easy to install (watch the [online] video). Looks GREAT. Hauls my kayaks no problem. Very well made and I highly recommend this product.

I definitely want to make sure it installs correctly for you. Would you able to send a picture of how it is installed? Can you confirm the type of roof that you have? Do you have flush mounted rails? Do they they have a metal strip that is on top of the rails? Or do you have a naked roof?
