Today on our 2012 Toyota Highlander well be test fitting a Rhino Rack Roof Rack System. Well be using the bars part number DA1375 and the fit kit part number DK138. You can also use the black bars which are part number DA1375B. Weve already got a roof rack system assembled according to the instructions so now were ready to mount it up on top of our vehicle. Well take the front crossbar assembly and set it up on top of our roof. Well need to measure 150 mm from the center of the gap between the doors to the center of our crossbars line.
Once we have it in position, well use the included wrench to tighten down the adjustment bolts on either side. Then we can move on to the rear bar. Again, well open the doors in the rear and set our rear crossbar up into place. To position the rear bar properly well need to measure from the center of the front bar to the center of the rear bar. This measurement should be 800 mm or about 31-1/2 inches.
With the rear bar in place, again, well tighten it down the same way we did the front. And with that our Rhino Rack System is installed and were ready to start loading your accessories. Thats it for our test fit of the Rhino Rack Roof Rack System part numbers DA1375 and DK138 on our 2012 Toyota Highlander.

These heavy-duty, aluminum crossbars work with Rhino-Rack legs to create a sturdy roof rack. The square bars include built-in C-channels for mounting Rhino-Rack heavy-duty, contractor-grade accessories.These are the perfect racks for a low profile mounting of solar panels on my Sprinter van.
The rack fit well and was easy to install. Seems to be made well. The problem is the amount of road noise. I never even put the basket on. It was so loud, it roared. I repositioned it several times but the noise was way too much and I finally just removed it. I spent a lot of money for the rack and the basket and now they are in storage. I wish it would have worked out better because I thought it looked really good.
This works great. Very strong and reliable. Holds my ladders with ease. I’ve had it loaded down and done 80mph on the highway no problem.
I wanted to share the items I used to be able to haul two Wilderness Systems Tsunami 145 kayaks on my 2006 Scion xB. This may help others who struggle with deciding what to use. I am pleased with my purchase and hope this helps. I originally thought I wanted the Thule Hull-A-Port Aero, but they discontinued making the fit kit for their roof rack systems and I ended up going with the Kuats. I am glad that they didn’t make the fit kit for approximately $[XX] and so they missed out on the rest of my business. Here are the items I used for anyone interested – pictures included. Custom DK Fit Kit for 4 Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack Legs - Naked Roof #DK138, Kuat Class 4 V2 Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs - J-Style - Folding - 1 Kayak - Black #KU53VR and these are really cool, Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Naked Roofs or Fixed Mounting Points - Qty 4 #RRRLKVA, Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 54" Long - Qty 2 #RRVA137-B2. The 54” crossbars fit really well and the perfect length in my opinion and it doesn’t stick out like the longer ones would. Also purchased two sets of these Malone QuickLash T-Style Hood Loops for Bow and Stern Tie-Downs - Qty 2 #MPG308.
Ordered a Rhino Rack for my 2014 GMC Sierra 2500HD Denali. Rack arrived in very good shape and all items were there. Installing at this time and see no problems ahead.
These Aero Racks are perfect on my Scion XB, stylish cool look & importantly Quiet with absolutely no wind noise! Also bought the Rocky Mount Cargo Basket & it comes WITH a full bunji net cover. It is also quiet with no wind noise & you can tie surf gear on top like racks (use padded rack pads) & or put things inside for more carrying space. Also a cool stylish look on the Scion XB or any other compact car like my wifes Toyota Yaris... We move it back & forth to who ever needs the Cargo Basket for the days Adventure.
Thanks to Etrailer, I am ready to do some serious summer exploring with my 2013 Mazda 3! Rhino Racks, Malone top box, and Kuat bike rack!
Good quality and locks are included. The plastic lock covers are flimsy but they will keep an honest person honest.
These Rhino bars are rock solid, a kayak does not move at all, and there is virtually no air noise from the rack. The included locks are not found on a lot of racks, definitely add peace of mind. Recommended.
I got the roof rack mounted anyways. Better pics to come when it's all finished!
I finally got the roof rack installed. When I received the shipment 1 of the rubber pads for the foot plate and the 4 rubber measurement strips were not included. I called and received the missing parts. The rubber measurement strips were too wide for the slots in the crossbars, I called about the strips and was told they were the correct strips. They would not fit, so I had to modify the strips to use them to complete the installation. This is the Rhino Rack 2500 series Euro Crossbars (square bars)
Great product everything fit perfectly. With the heavy duty bars almost all the hardware for anything you put on the rack is too short
This kit is easy to slap on and sturdy enough to balance my skis and snowboards. I recently used the Rhino Rack on a three hour drive to a ski resort and had no issues.
This rack worked out great... I installed in on a 2017 Ford F-150. We drove 6 hrs through wind and rain with a SUP and Tandem Kayak on top. It really took a beating in a storm the whole way. One bracket was a little loose and shifted because of the wind on the Kayak, but it held together. Super happy with Rhino rack!
This is a great rack!! It was so easy to install with etrailer's step by step instructions. Everything about this experience was great! Tori B answered all my questions, handled the order and some how got it shipped out on a Sunday. Amazing!!
I purchased this because I needed 11" brackets and I only needed two to add to my existing setup. Other manufacturers (I could only find one) only sold packs of four at a ridiculously high price. My Rhino Rack mounts and bar arrived within a few days of my order and appear very sturdy and well made. I bought them to add a third support for an awning and a solar shower on the roof of my van. I think I found the perfect solution.
This is my second Rhino-Rack. They go on very easily and hold the bikes/kayaks and even an extension ladder very well....thanks for a great product
This rack works perfectly on my Nissan Versa for carrying my two Perception Sound 9'6" kayaks. The Rhino-Racks look good to me. The kayaks can rest directly on the rubber pads on the rails, unlike the Yakama racks I had in the past that had bare pipe rails. Also, I expect I can buy parts to adapt this product to a different car without having to buy new towers. I am sorry there are not hooks or loops to attach bungees when carrying lumber. They are noisy in the wind, but less so when carrying the kayaks.
Instructions were confusing which made assembly and installation challenging. Even after being on the vehicle a year, it still isn't completely secure and will move (slide forward or backwards) when attaching something to it. I'm sorry to say that I'm disappointed with this purchase.
Two items I received surprised me when I unpacked the box were the rails because they were not black like I saw in the picture, and the rubber insert that I am having a hard time sliding in the rail. Should this rubber insert have come already installed in the rail or is there a top on how to put in with ease?
Love the roof rack! Works great for ka yaks!
This is an excellent product. It was the only product that would fit my truck. I was able to mount it by myself, it took me longer than I thought it would, but it helps if you watch first a video on line about how to put it together. The support staff is excellent if you miss any parts. I highly recommend it for the 2015 Nissan Rogue.

Well engineered rack that fits my Ram 2500 crew cab well. A bit of wind noise at highway speeds. I have the heavy duty cross pieces with a square cross section.
This product is great! Rhino Rack makes it easy to to put together and onto your vehicle. It is easy to install by yourself and does not take a long time at all.
Easy installation with the instructions.
