Custom built a mixed Rhino-Rack and Thule bike carrier. Started with the RTC tracks, added Rhino-Rack crossbars, then Thule bike carriers. Customer support was very helpful in getting compatible parts. Took some ingenuity on my part, too, but I love the way it turned out!

Rhino tracks are great - I installed on my truck topper per the great instructions that were included (see photos). The tracks flexed to meet the contours of my topper. All bolts are hidden by track and were long enough to go through topper where special knobbed nuts are used to secure. Total install took about three hours.
etrailer customer service came through to resolve several challenges on this order:
- I initially ordered Yakima tracks. There were long shipping times, so etrailer recommended different compatible tracks from Rhino that were $40 cheaper!
- the initial shipment had not arrived in nearly three weeks with no USPS shipping updates. etrailer sent a second set of tracks via a different shipper that arrived in a few days.
- unfortunately the replacement tracks were incorrect - too long and endcaps were missing.
- while eTrailer was arranging to resend the endcaps, the original USPS order arrived with the correct tracks and all parts.
- eTrailer had me keep the correct tracks and parts, and send me a label to ship the incorrect tracks back to them.
All of these interactions were made with very professional and friendly customer service staff. I felt like I was a valued customer!

I mounted these rails in a non-traditional manner (on top of my truck bed caps so that I could crossbars that spanned over my existing tonneau cover). No one I talked with had actually done this type of installation before. The only problems I ran into were: 1) I had to cut the rails approximately 1/2 inch to ensure the through-bolts did not interfere with existing cap hardware, and; 2) The "Nyloc Nuts" were too wide to use so I just substituted a nut, lock washer and flat washer to compensate. Other than that, the installation took a while but came out great. And the RRRL T600 feet work perfectly with the rails. See the attached photo for the complete installation (with bikes attached) and a second photo with the rack removed by using the quick release feet.

Roof rack tracks are great and easy to install. The instructions provided online help and are very detailed. The tracks are of sturdy aluminum. These tracks helped with installation of my Uptop Roof rack.

Working great, no leaks ever! Im glad I purchased this and was able to install this myself.
by: Benjamin08/01/2022
Very well packed and supported. Follow up was also good. The extrusion looks a bit thin, but otherwise well made.
by: Samuel03/18/2023
Exactly what I was looking for I’ll follow up when I get the racks and some bikes and boats on it. Measure twice drill once bolt holes must be exact on the f150
by: Jonski09/16/2022
Great tracks. They fit well on my 6-foot 04 Tundra Camper. I paired them with adjustable feet & crossbars from Sherpa Equipment. The combo is perfect. Thx etrailer. The tracks arrived in good condition and on time. Would definitely recommend if anyone is looking for affordable tracks.

This review is given after 1 week of use. Please take it for what it is worth without knowing the long-term performance of the product.
The good.
The package arrived a few days after ordering without delays.
All parts were properly packaged and all quantities were correct.
The rails seem sturdy and the finish appears that it will hold up over time.
The rails have a clean factory type look. I mounted them on the bed rails of my Jeep Gladiator.
They fit nicely next to my hard tri-fold tonneau cover frame.
The dimensions given online were accurate.
The not so good.
The descriptions online made me feel like this was a "universal" size track. It is not. It seems as though all of the major brands have proprietary T-bolt sizes. I am currently using elevator bolts that I hit with the bench grinder to hold accessories until I can find a good fit.
by: Roy A.09/19/2014
The price is right, and the product appears generally well-engineered. I'd be reluctant to label it as "heavy duty" however (as Rhino does), since they are made of extruded aluminum, and each tower is mounted by just two small square washers gripping the rails. Although the mounting hardware itself is sturdy stainless steel, I question the sturdiness of the rails themselves under a heavy load. Unfortunately, the competition likewise only makes aluminum rails, so the industry as a whole appears to have a very different concept of sturdy than I do. (I could have sworn they are described as steel when I ordered them, but I may be wrong about that).
by: Kevin 09/24/2022
The rails work great and installed easily. All installation hardware was included.
by: Tim 04/18/2023
Delivered as expected. Works perfectly as usual
by: Matthew03/08/2022
Good track option because the slots allow you to add or remove square nuts as needed. Pretty robust feel as well!
by: Tracy08/28/2022
Easy installation and solid performance
by: Doug 07/27/2022
Very solid made. I installed them on my fiberglass camper shell by myself. It took about 1.5 hours. Very straightforward instructions
by: Brett09/08/2021
They don’t send all the material you need. I’m short on most components. Counting is not that hard

- How to Get Rhino-Rack Roof Rack for Camper Shells with 55 Inch TracksI can definitely get you the parts you're looking for but to get 55" tracks we don't have a full-fledged kit like what you're looking at with the Roof Rack for Camper Shells # Y01-140B. Instead, here are the parts you'll need: 65" Heavy-Duty Crossbars - # RB1650B-2 Quick Mount Legs - # RRRLT600 55" RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks - # RTC14 This gets you everything you're asking about but with the shorter tracks.
view full answer... - Roof Rack Track Setup for Camper Shell for 6-1/2 ft Truck BedTo add a set of tracks and crossbars for the roof of your ARE topper we have the Rhino Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack part numbers # Y02-480B which comes with everything needed to install and the tracks are 54 inches long.
view full answer... - Can the Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks Bend To Take Shape of RoofYes, the Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks like part # RTC14 will conform to the curvature of the mounting surface. If possible, it will be best to secure the track in the middle and then work your way out to each side for the best conformity. In regards to weight, this will come from the mounting feet, crossbars, and mounting surface. The lowest rated component would be the figure you need to abide by but I wouldn't have any specifics on any one particular mounting surface unfortunately.
view full answer... - Does Foam on Bottom of Rhino Rack track part # RTC14 Stay OnThe foam on the underside of the tracks of the Rhino Rack track part # RTC14 does need to stay on. The paper backing of it gets removed but it stays on.
view full answer... - Will the Rhino Rack Tracks Work with Yakima Control Towers and What Is the Length of Mounting BoltsThe 63 inch Rhino Rack RTC Style Roof Rack Tracks, # RTC16, come with 8 T-bolts for each track, 16 total, and each T-bolt measures 1 inch long. Although manufacturers typically do not recommend using another company's towers on their track, I went to our warehouse and pulled a set of the RT Style Rhino Roof Tracks and the Yakima Landing Pad1, #Y00221 to perform a test fit to ensure compatibility. All parts performed just as they should so yes, the Rhino Rack RTC Style Tracks will work...

- Can Yakima Landing Pad 1 Fit Rhino Rack RTC Tracks without Removing EndcapsThe T-nuts of the Yakima Landing Pad 1 part # Y00221 are big enough to fit into the opening of the Rhino Rack RTC Tracks # RTC14 without requiring you to remove the end caps.
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Add Roof Rack with Tracks to Camper Shell On TruckThe tracks part # RTC14 can install on the top of a camper shell to add a roof rack to it. For feet you would want part # RLT500 for a quantity of 2 feet, then for 71 inch long HD Crossbars part # RB1800S for each bar.
view full answer... - Recommended Tracks for Camper Shell Compatible with Prinsu Toprac SystemThe Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks will work with the Camper shell to give you the compatible tracks. There are different lengths available and you can cut them down if needed: Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks - 31-1/4" Long # RRRTC8JWMY11 Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks - 31-1/2" Long # RTC8JW Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks - 55" Long # RTC14 Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks - 63" Long # RTC16 Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks - 71" Long # RTC18

- SUP Rack for 5th WheelThe only way that you can haul your SUPs with your 5th Wheel is to get a roof rack. You can get these tracks # RTC14 which connect to these feet # RRRLT600 and then the feet will connect to these crossbars # RRVA200B-2. These two pads # RRRWP03 are good for one SUP so if you're hauling more, grab as many as you need!
view full answer... - Are There Rails Available For Installing a Roof Rack on a VehicleWe do have rails like the Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks # RTC14 which mount to naked roof vehicles. They are typically used for camper shells or truck bed rails, but can be used on a vehicle if you are willing to drill into the roof. These rails will allow you to use Track Mount RLTF Legs # RLTF and Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty square and Aero oval crossbars like the Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty Roof Rack Crossbars # RB1375B-2 or the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2. There are...
view full answer... - Track Setup that Could be Used to Install Thule Roof RackThe Thule HideAway Awning Adapter # TH301668 that you referenced needs to only be used with a Thule HideAway awning on Mercedes Sprinter vans that have tracks present. It sounds like you are wanting a track setup that can have a Thule roof rack installed in it which we can help with. We have 31-1/4 inch long tracks like with # RRRTC8JWMY11 or 55 inch long tracks with # RTC14.
view full answer... - Sturdy Roof Rack Recommendation for 2008 Chevy CobaltFor a vehicle like your 2008 Chevy Cobalt I would not want to recommend a track style of rack as the best option. The tracks aren't going to flex enough to fit well and the clamp style racks are much sturdier than one might think so even though that's not the option you listed wanting it would be your overall best option still. Rhino Rack does offer a heavy duty roof rack that fits your vehicle with the # RB1250, # RRRLKHD, and # DK181 if you have a sedan or part # DK182 for a coupe but...
view full answer... - Can the Track on the Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack for Camper Shells Be Trimmed for a 5' BedThe track on the Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack for Camper Shells # Y02-490B can be cut down to the size you need. But, the crossbars cannot be cut. That being said, you should not need to trim down the crossbars. It is also important to note that the wider slot on whichever end is trimmed will be gone, so installation and removal of the crossbars would need to be from the untrimmed edge. You could also use the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack for Factory Tracks # Y02-490B-NT (59") with shorter tracks,...
view full answer... - Installing 60" x 56" Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform with Legs on a 2019 Silverado 1500 Crew CabWhile we do have an option for you, the correct platform and backbone that is engineered to fit your 2019 Silverado 1500 Crew Cab is the # RR28ZW. The 42113B is unfortunately not confirmed to fit. With that being said, without using the Backbone, the only way to install just the platform # RR72TB with legs is with drilling a track system directly onto your cab. For this route, you need the following parts: - Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks # RTC14 - Track Mount RLTP Legs for Rhino-Rack...
view full answer... - Recommended Rhino-Rack Roof Rack For Snugtop Camper Shell On Toyota TacomaI have a solution for you, but the square bars you were looking at are not a fit for this application. You can continue with the Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks 55" # RTC14 and Rhino-Rack Quick Mount Legs # RRRLT600 that you were looking at and then go with Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars Black - 49" # RRVA126B-2 or 54" bars # RRVA137B-2. This is a popular setup that will be sure to work well together. Also, these aero bars are a nice upgrade over square bars for a few reasons;...
view full answer... - Can Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform Fit on Top of Truck Bed CamperThere are several different ways to install a Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack on the roof of your truck bed topper. I recommend using the track system as this will work the best for your application. In order to install the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack part # RR75TB you will also need to install a set of tracks such as the Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks part # RTC14 and then legs # RLTP (x2). The tracks once installed will give you a very versatile mounting system on the roof...
view full answer... - Rhino Track Mount Roof Rack for 5' Long Cap on a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 6-1/2' BedThe Rhino-Rack Roof Rack System # Y02-480B is a confirmed fit for your 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 6-1/2' bed as well as the 8' 1500. The reason it fits both is because the track itself can be cut to length for your specific application. You just need to make sure that the cut is perfectly straight so that it is easier to use the track and the caps fit. If you would rather not cut the track you can just make your own kit with the 54" Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA137B-2. the Quick Mount Legs # RRRLT600,...
view full answer... - Do Rhino Rack Vortex Crossbars Have an Upward Curvature?The Rhino-Rack Vortex Bars are slightly bowed in the longer bar options to help support the weight when applied to the center of the bar. Most manufacturers have this as a part of the aero bar design. If you want a more straight bar, then you will want to instead use the heavy duty bars like # Y01-120B-NT for the track system or # RB1375B-2 for just the crossbars. There are longer bars like # RB1500B-2 and # RB1650B-2 if desired.
view full answer... - Will TruXedo Elevate Ladder Rack TX84NV Fit In Rhino-Rack RTC Tracks RTC14?They sure will! The Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks # RTC14 you were looking at use a standard T-Track dimension that the TruXedo # TX84NV will fit just fine in. With that said the # TX84NV was only tested with specific tracks on tonneau covers so there's no telling what the capacity of the rack would be as you're not using it as intended.
view full answer... - Can I Use Two Rhino Rack RTC Tracks On A Roof To Cover The Whole Roof?You can do two sets of 55" tracks # RTC14 on your roof no problem. You won't be able to slide your bars # RRRB2000B-2 all the way from one track to the other because there will be a gap but that isn't a big deal at all. These bars # RRRB2000B-2 will work with the tracks no problem! You'll need these feet # RRRLT600 to connect it to the tracks.
view full answer... - Can Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks Install at an Angle?The Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks # RTC14 do need to lay flat. There cannot be an angle because that would cause an undue amount of stress on your camper shell, the tracks, and the legs. To safely and effectively use the rack you are going to need to do it so the tracks are laid down flat or they could very easily snap off or come apart because they'll be constantly flexed.

The track length is 63" on this roof rack but they can be trimmed down to fit a smaller camper shell if need be. Another solution is to use Rhino-Rack RTC-Style Roof Rack Tracks - Channel Mount - 55" Long - Qty 2 # RTC14 which are 55" long tracks.
