Note: Do not load weight on the section of crossbar that extends past the towers.
The Malone SteelTop roof rack lets you carry gear and accessories on the roof of your vehicle with raised, factory side rails. This complete roof rack system includes 2 steel, square crossbars and 4 towers. The bars are compatible with most universal, clamp-on accessories and carriers, and the towers have built-in locks to protect the rack from theft. The rack clamps onto your raised side rails and tightens down with the included tool, so it's easy to remove and install.
Strong, Steel Crossbars
The durable crossbars are made of steel and have a black vinyl coating to protect them from corrosion and keep them looking new. The bars also have plastic endcaps to protect the interiors from the elements and to give your roof rack a finished look.
Durable Towers with Built-In Security
The towers are made of molded nylon that won't fade or wear down when exposed to the elements. Each tower includes a nylon cover with a built-in lock to deter would-be thieves from removing the rack from your roof. The covers also protect the towers' interior and hardware from the elements.
Easy Installation with Rubber-Coated Steel Clamps
The towers attach to your vehicle's raised, factory side rails with rubber-coated steel clamps. The rubber coating provides a superior grip on your side rails and protects them from damage during installation and use.
To tighten, simply turn the bolt inside the tower assembly with the included installation tool until the clamps are snug.
Rubber spacer blocks are included to fit smaller side rails. If the clamps don't tighten enough to your side rails, just slide a spacer block onto the clamps before tightening them.
Once assembled, the towers and crossbars stay together as one unit, which makes removing, storing, and reinstalling the system a snap. To remove, simply remove the cover and loosen the bolts inside the towers with the installation tool.

This complete roof rack system mounts to your vehicle with raised, factory side rails. Full-length square crossbars work with most clamp-on carriers and accessories. Vinyl-coated steel bars are corrosion resistant. Includes locks to deter theft.Meet my needs exactly. Have used it to secure an enclosed top carrier without any problems.
Exactly what I needed to be able to put rooftop carrier or ski rack on top of my older suv. Works perfectly!
The steel portion of the unit is good. The vinyl coating is weak and had moderate scratches in many areas although the packing was good. Assembly was easy. The appearance on the vehicle looks plain but practical.
Bars arrived scratched up. 2 months after install, the securing bolts are very badly rusted.
Was told they do not sell stainless steel bolts, and to buy from local hardware store?? Wow.
Very disappointing.
The racks are solid however it appears the manufacturer doesn’t pay much attention to how the product is shipped or any type of quality control to ensure all pieces are in the box when shipped. I received the package and upon opening the box it quickly became evident that the accessory bag was completely open and was missing one of the four little gray shim/adjustment pieces as well as the keys for the lock. Etrailer was quick yo respond but ask that i ship the entire package back and wait for a return item. I felt they should have shipped replacement parts immediately but that wasn’t an option apparently. That was unfortunate and will most likely play in my decision to order from etrailer in the future
Fits our 2023 Subaru Forester like a glove. Well made. Like the locking feature.
Works great & we’re happy with it. However it’s not very aerodynamic in that it vibrates considerably when we drive over 55 miles/hr without a boat on top so we remove it when going anywhere without our two kayaks.
Works well, easy on and off and gives me the added width I needed to carry two 30" kayaks face down.
I have ordered a number of items from etrailer. Always happy with the result. Will continue to be a customer
I installed the roof rack easily. The instructions were clear. The cross bars are strong and heavy. The towers adjust easily with the provided tool. It chirps a bit when I drive. I don’t mind that. I plan to carry two Hornbeck canoes.

I still love the roof rack. We took it off for the winter. It was easy to re-install. Yep. I love it
Excellent quality...clear instructions...solid...very pleased...fits my 2015 Ford Explorer perfectly...even the enclosed tool was well-thought out...carries my two 10-foot kayaks easily.

Customer Service will reach out to you.
My Malone rack has worked perfectly carrying canoes and kayaks (with attachements) on dozens of occassions including to FLorida. The price for a locking rack was very good. Thanks for the study product.
Product was shipped in the Malone box and arrived with one end of the box broken open. Malone did not use any kind of reinforcement packing inside the box to secure the bars from banging around during shipping. Luckily, they arrived with only minimal scratches, but could have easily been more damaged. Normally products like this would have had some styrofoam spacers to keep them from hitting each other and reinforce the strength of the box - Malone DID NOT. I like the product and it is strong on my roof rails, but Malone needs to step up their product packaging.
Solid I used it regularly with 2 kayaks in the summer.

After 2 years I’m still happy with this purchase.
Installed quickly and was wide enough to carry two Hornbeck bosts

Happy with this roof rack. Wide enough to hold two Hornbeck Canoes. Locks nice to the factory rails and not difficult to install or remove.
A small adjustment was needed in order for the brackets to mount to the factory installed roof rails. Upon completing that the rack fit good and provides adequate carrying capacity.
This roof rack is exactly what I have been looking for for a Chevy Astrovan with factory bars. It is easy to put on and take off and rock solid once installed. etrailer.com is a great company as well!
Product is great, install was easy...my complaint is with etrailer.com...they didn't package the item well at all. It wasn't wrapped up in plastic or anything, they just threw it in the box (which the end was broken open upon receiving it) so when I took it out of the thin cardboard box, the cross bars and plastic mounts were scratched and scraped up. That was disappointing to say the least.
Missing parts, broken parts, just a hassle. The only plus was the awesome customer service. Not sure I will go with this brand again.
The rack is well made...very easy to install and adjust...it will handle the two Hobie kayaks perfectly...the rectangular profile of the rack tubing will allow an outrigger extension to make loading the boats easier
The shipping was fast and the customer service was great. These crossbars come at a great value. Although they do make a bit of noise at medium to highway speed, for the price they can’t be beat.
The cross bars look like they will do the job.
Fast fast delivery, no problems . Great product.

I have gotten in touch with the manufacturer and they have confirmed that the Bolts inside those SteelTop Towers should not be starting to rust at all, especially after only 2 months. The only times they have ever seen any of those Bolts start to show rust was after years of use right next to Salt Water. I have sent your information over to our customer service department for them to better assist you.
