Video Transcript for Rhino Rack Roof Rack Installation - 2010 Chevrolet Silverado
Today on this 2010 Chevrolet Silverado we are going to install a roof rack from Rhino Rack. We will be using part number DA1375 for the crossbars and it is their elliptical design. And we will also use the pad and clamp kit part number DK227. We have our bars already assembled. We measured out our front rail at 118 millimeters. We measured from here to the inside edge here. And our measurement for our back rail is going to be 109 millimeters. Alright, we have our bars set up. Let us go ahead and start installing the front crossbar. Measure the center of the door jamb to the center of the crossbar. We are going to measure out 9-27/32. 0:38
Once we have our first rail installed, we will go ahead and measure from the center of that one to the back rail. And that measurement will be 31-1/2 inches. Then you go ahead and tighten them down. Using the included tool that comes with the roof rack, we will just snug them down on both sides. Once we have the Rhino Rack installed, we will go ahead and put the covers on the legs and lock them down into place. Alright, with a few easy steps, our Rhino Rack is already installed on the vehicle and ready for service. And there you have it for part number DA1375 and we also used the pad and clamp kit part number DK227.

The Rhino 2500 series is well built. The etrailer customer service person Trevor W. was great. He was so helpful in getting the right components for my Rhino 2500 roof rack to mount to my 2010 Silverado. Thanks for the help Trevor.
by: Gregory08/11/2019
Repeat customer of Etrailer. Always great service and support. Here, acquired parts to reconfigure Rhino Racks to fit another truck after a trade. Made the switch seamlessly and racks are now mounted on the new truck. Use them to transport a racing sailing skiff that is not heavy but is bulky. They have moved the boat to regattas around the country without issue. Excellent product.

Mounted on 2001 GMC Sierra 2500HD. Excellent fit. Looks clean on truck. Sturdy. Small amount of noise. I would buy again and recommend to others. Price far better than some of the big names for the same quality.

Solid product that fit well with the other components.

Fit and function perfect. I use this to carry 2 kayaks on top of my Chevy Silverado 2500HD while towing my camper. No issues.
by: Bryce03/11/2022
Had these installed for a year now. Have not budged at all, with well over 120 pounds above daily.
Have not caused any weather strip wear or anything, so solid 5 stars.

It been a couple years now. They did eventually shift on me, sliding forward. I would not say it is the fault of the product though. I should have checked the tightness of them beforeafter a long off-road trip tofrom a camp spot. I had not touched them since the initial install years ago. Weatherstripping flattens over time. It was simple to just put them back where the alignment stickers where from initial installation and retighten though. All in all, these are amazing, and handled being tugged on by all kinds of branches, and bumps from some of toughest roads. I would absolutely buy them again.

We do recommend to occasionally retighten the feet of the roof rack to avoid any issues with shifting.

These made it easy for me to mount a roof basket on top of my truck without drilling holes. This is a great product.
by: Robert09/16/2021
While the quality of all the parts I received and the service I got deserved 5 stars, the fact that the clips which hold the rack onto my roof don't fit (and I was assured they would) gets etrailer 3 stars. My truck is a 2006 Silverado 3500 extended cab and the brackets will not fit over the door rubber and slip under the steel rain gutter. I was told these should fit and they are the only clips they have. Looks like I will have to modify them myself to get everything to work.
by: Larry o02/28/2017
Customer service was very helpful making sure that the correct racks were ordered. Shipping was very fast and tracking package provided up to date info regarding arrival of package. The racks were exactly what I wanted and I am very happy with the product. Will definetly consider etrailer for other products in the future.
by: Steve09/10/2022
After a year of use I can say that this rack and it's fit kit is not bulletproof, but it's darn close!
I give it 4 stars because it is not obvious what is loose if one of the feet start to creep on the roof. WHEN YOU DETECT CREEP BE SURE TO CHECK ALL OF THE CONNECTORS ON THE BAR! Not just the one that "must" be loose!
It took me about 2 months to figure this out and the rack is a design forgiving enough that after about 2,000 miles I still have an undamaged kayak and roof!

Chevrolet Silverado
A year ago we purchased this Rhino roof rack system/kit to carry our 15ft canoe and 12ft kayak on our Silverado crew cab. We tow a retro camper, carry bikes, and have a toolbox in the bed, so the truck roof was our easiest option. We also bought removable Yakima folding kayak holders (because the beam width of our two boats was too wide for the cross bars - need to carry them on their sides). I appreciate the build quality, the sturdy finishes, the strong materials and smart design of this rack. We followed the enclosed directions and the etrailer installation video and it was easier and faster than we thought. We've logged thousands of highway and north woods miles with this rack and it's still solid as a rock! Only one minor issue... the square Euro cross-bars create wind noise at highway speeds which is only noticeable when you're not carrying canoes (they make enough wind noise on their own!). We just remove the racks when we don't use them - only takes 5 mins. It's a great product and we expect it to last for many more years! Great service from etrailer as well!

Johnathan W. was very helpful giving me advice with the situation I had, carrying our kayaks while pulling our 5th wheel. He recommended the Curt Front Mount Hitch Receiver Custom and a Thule Goal Post Hitch Mounted Load Bar (which I already had). I also purchased a Rhino Rack Square Bar Roof Rack. I received my order promply. I installed both products ( with the help of my 8 year old grandson Hayden ) I am very happy with the quality and easy installation of all products i have ordered from etrailer in the past. I will continue to do so in the future. Now we will be able to take our kayaks while pulling our 5th wheel. Thank-you etrailer!

Assembled and installed the roof rack today. I used your websites video's to guide me. Didn't have any problems, everything went smoothly. Highly recommend this company. The product was very well made.

The rack fits perfectly,and was easy to install, directions were easy to follow. I would recomend this product to anyone. Only issue I had were the measuring strips were missing. Still waiting for them.

Rack works great no problems. Measureing strips came but were wrong ones but I made due without.
by: Jim W.10/13/2016
2011 Chevrolet Silverado 2500
Assembly directions were explanatory - the sub-assemblies done at the warehouse made it even easier. The parts went together with no effort. I have a 11.5 foot, 65-lb. kayak that will be carried on the roof rack whenever I travel over 30 miles. I normally tie it down in the truck bed for trips under 30 miles. I have a tri-fold cover for my truck bed and the Rhino Rack 2500 allows me to use the truck bed for gear that can be stowed there on extended fishing trips.

Ordered a roof rack for my son's kayak. etrailer customer service was a great help in getting me squared away. Very knowledgeable & friendly. I highly recommend them.
by: James K05/03/2019
I bought the entire Rhino Rack package, it was super easy to put on and it came with everything I needed to attach it. Great customer from these guys and fast shipping. Will definitely recommend to anyone looking for a rack.

Safely held roof rack bars and kayaks on truck roof.
by: Mike C.03/10/2017
I followed install instructions very closely, pretty straight forward, but you have to ensure you measure twice and cut once. Not a complicated install but how well you do it determines the performance of the rack. Test drive showed it to be very quiet at city and high way speeds. A paper tape measure should be included with install kit, who has anything in the USA the measures millimeters or 32nds of an inch. Would definitely recommend product, feel it is sturdy and durable. Will meet my needs to carry RV equipment and a canoe if needed.
by: Owen W03/31/2017
Fit and finish look fine and match the roof rack. Thin rubber glued to bracket where door hits it, not sure how long that will last. Bracket fits down over rubber weather strip hooking the bottom and looks wide enough to be very stable once tightened down.
by: Dave04/16/2022
Excellent product. Very well constructed and easy to install. I was researching so many different products to fit my truck and the folks at e trailer were extremely helpful and ensured that the rack would fit my particular truck.

See what our Experts say about this Rhino Rack Roof Rack
- Does Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Fit 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500 Extended CabThat's a smart idea to make sure the rack fits, so I went ahead and double-checked with the manufacturer for you, and can confirm the Rhino-Rack roof rack does fit your 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500 Extended Cab, and consists of parts # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK227. This is a really nice choice for a roof rack on your truck because Rhino-Rack roof racks offer the same quality as other name brand options but at a better price point so you're getting the best value.
view full answer... - Transporting 2 Kayaks while Pulling Trailer with 2014 GMC Sierra 2500As you referenced in your question, there are a variety of potential options for transporting your kayaks while towing an enclosed trailer with your 2014 GMC Sierra 2500. To avoid any possible interference issues and concerns regarding the integrity of a dual hitch for this application, I recommend going with a complete roof rack system on your Sierra. This will also allow you to still use your dual hitch for a bike rack as you mentioned. The Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack, which consists...
view full answer... - Kayak Carrier and Roof Rack Recommendation for a 2011 GMC Sierra 2500 Crew CabAs long as the roof of your 2011 GMC Sierra 2500 has the needed capacity to carry the weight of both of your kayaks you could easily do so with the Thule Hull A Port part # TH834 that you referenced. You will need a roof rack on your truck though. For that you would want the Rhino Rack roof rack that consists of part numbers # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK227. This rack has been confirmed as a fit for your truck and has a 130 lb capacity.
view full answer... - Carrying 4 Bikes While Towing a 5th Wheel Trailer with a 2006 Chevy Silverado 2500You could probably get 3 bikes on the roof of your 2006 Chevy Silverado 2500 but a 4th will likely not fit due to limited roof rack space. There is another possibility and that is to install a front mount hitch receiver, # 65028, and carry the bikes in the front mount hitch with a hitch mount bike rack such as # TH934XTR. But there are some things to consider with this as well: reduced driver visibility, the vehicle lights could be blocked, and air flow to the motor could be restricted. If...
view full answer... - Roof Rack and Kayak Carrier Recommendation for 2007 Chevy Silverado Crew CabThe first thing you need to carry kayaks with your 2007 Chevy Silverado crew cab is a roof rack. For that I recommend the Rhino Rack part numbers # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK227 as this is a very easy to install roof rack that has aero shaped bars which helps prevent wind noise, and because you get an overall higher quality rack at a price less than the higher end brands. For your two kayaks I'd recommend the Yakima JayLow part # Y04073 because the rack is padded, can fold down when...
view full answer... - Recommended Bike Rack and Ladder Rack or Roof Rack for Fishing Kayaks on 2002 Chevy 2500 6.5 BedThe # Y01118 can mount to your Weather Guard toolbox. I recommend using the sealant # LT37467 to make sure your toolbox remains water tight at the mounting holes. For your roof rack I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 65" Long - Qty 2 # RRVA165B-2, the 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA, and the Fit Kit # DK227. These bars will be longer than usual which you will need for two fishing kayaks. Then for your carrier, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Nautic 581 Rear...

- Rhino Rack Heavy Duty Roof Rack for 2003 GMC Sierra Crew CabAll three items you mentioned, the 71 inch Rhino Rack Heavy Duty Crossbars # RB1800B-2, the # RRRLKHD roof rack legs and the # DK227 vehicle specific fit kit are compatible with your 2003 GMC Sierra Crew Cab. I've linked to an insatllation video showing the roof rack being installed on a 2010 Chevy Silverado, but the procedure would be very similar for your older Sierra.

view full answer... - Roof Rack and Hitch Mounted Crossbar Recommendation for a 2001 GMC Sierra StepsideI may have a solution for you, but since you have a stepside 2001 GMC Sierra none of the ladder racks we offer would work as a fit. What you would want is a roof rack to start with like part # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK227 and then go with a hitch mounted crossbar like the Rhino-Rack T-Load # RTL002 for if you needed more support. This would be the best option you would have that should work well and wouldn't interfere with your toolbox.
view full answer... - Can Roof Rack On 2013 Chevrolet Impala Be Used On 2009 Chevrolet Silverado Crew CabIf the Rhino-Rack 2500 Series legs on your 2013 Impala are part # RRRLKVA, you can use those on your 2009 Chevrolet Silverado Crew Cab. Unfortunately, those are the only parts you will be able to use. The crossbars for a 2013 impala we offer are 49 inches long. For the Silverado, the Vortex crossbars we have that are designed to fit are 54 inches long. To complete the roof rack for your Silverado you will need the legs mentioned above along with part # RRVA137B-2, and part # DK227....

To make it work the parts will need to be pieced out, but by adding each of them it will allow you to add the track-mounted rack system for your camper shell and a single-bar rack with a matching HD crossbar. The exact parts you will need to make this work for your '06 Sierra are the following: - Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty Roof Rack Crossbars...
view full answer... - Availability of Yakima Q-Clips for 2008 GMC Sierra Crew Cab Roof RackWe have a few roof rack options for you but the Yakima rack with Q-Clips has been discontinued and is no longer available for your truck. My recommendation for you is the Rhino-Rack consisting of the Vortex aero crossbars # RRVA137B-2, feet # RRRLKVA, and custom fit kit # DK227. This roof rack comes with the aero bars for less wind noise, a sleek look, and also comes with the integrated locks for security.
view full answer... - Roof Rack for Installing Cargo Basket for a 2011 Chevy SilveradoThere are roof racks for your truck that clamp to the door frames so that you would not have to drill the roof of your truck. For that the Rhino Rack parts # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK227 would be a confirmed fit for your 2011 Chevy Silverado Crew Cab. Once installed the Loadwarrior part # Y07070 would fit and work well.
view full answer... - Will Inno Roof Deck Hold 23zero Rooftop Tent on 2000 Chevy SilveradoAdding a roof rack like the Rhino-Rack Vortex ( # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK227 ) would allow you to mount the Inno Roof Deck Platform Rack for Crossbars # INA520. The platform rack can hold the tent but at 125 lbs that would only leave 40 lbs for a person which isn't realistic. Even at a higher capacity you would need to make sure your roof could handle the weight. I'm not sure which 23zero tent you have exactly or how it mounts but most people choose to put their tent on a ladder...

I went ahead and called my tech at Rhino-Rack to see if they had replacements of the M365 pads you need. While they do have those pads, the only way to get them is by purchasing another fit kit # DK227. They do not sell the M365 pads individually from the rest of the fit kit.

This system consists of # RB1375 for the two 54 inch Heavy-Duty Crossbars, # RRRLKHD for the 2500 Series Legs, and # DK227 for the Custom DK Fit Kit. This system will provide you with extremely durable aluminum crossbars with built-in C-channels for mounting Rhino-Rack, contractor-grade accessories. The bars themselves...

Then in order to secure the kayaks, you'll need to do so on their side, the Rhino-Rack Nautic Stack Kayak Carrier part # RRS520 is a great cost effective option with the ability to expand if needed.

If you want to carry the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier and Lift Assist with Tie-Downs - Side Loading, part # TH898, I recommend the following roof rack: Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 59" Long - Qty 2, part # RRVA150B-2 Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars...

- Paddleboard Carrier Recommendation for 3 Boards for a 2005 Chevy SilveradoFor a 3 board paddle board carrier the Inno Paddle Board Carrier part # INA446 would work well. You will need a roof rack to carry this carrier though. For that the Rhino Rack Vortex bar setup that consists of part numbers # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK227 would be a great option that has been confirmed as a fit.

Thanks for the follow up. The roof rack worked great. I have since sold it though and purchased a rack for the bed of my truck. I would have kept the roof rack, but the bed rack just gave me added uses besides just carrying my kayaks. The guy who bought it from me likes it though, he purchased the feet for his vehicle.
