Durable nylon legs with built-in locks mount 1 Vortex Aero crossbar to your vehicle's naked roof or fixed mounting points. Leg bases pivot to level bars on your roof. Pair with custom half fit kit to add a third crossbar to an existing roof rack.Etrailer was great to deal with. They had everything I needed in stock and delivery was quick. They were also very helpful after the sale with questions I had regarding installation.
We had the challenge of how to carry 2 kayaks this summer in addition to hauling a 30 foot gooseneck horse trailer. We have F450 crew cab with custom truck bed. We hoped to use the "head ache" bar on the truck bed to support the rear sets of Swagman Rincon supports and purchased a single Rhino Vortex bar for the forward sets on top of the cab. We have 10.5 and 12 foot kayaks and this looks to be an excellent solution. The kayaks are clear of the gooseneck trailer even in a "jackknife" position. Please note the truck bed is extra long therefore there is plenty of room forward the nose of the trailer. We have not hauled yet but will convey any issues if there are any. eTrailer tech support was excellent. Product shipped as projected. Installation took approximatly 3 hours.
Worked well. Some time to install but worked well for my lightweight canoe.
Just what I needed to replace a defective set I bough from a less reliable company. I do think that the pin in the center of the allen hole of the tensioner bolt is a bad design that requires using the special Rhino Rack allen torque tool. Why not just make it a regular allen wrench bolt since it is already securely locked by the keyed cover? If you loose the specialty tool you cannot remove the racks without punching out the center pin in the tensioner bolt.
This is a great product, however etrailer might not ship everything that it is supposed to come with. It's extremely frustrating to purchase a product and receive it with missing parts making it useless. Just beware! You'll get most of what you ordered, and you will get a replacement, but at a great inconvenience. There are other online stores that sell this product, you might want to try them first. I am probably not the only one that would like to receive everything that was paid for.
First of all, the Rhino Rack is a great product. It is durable and I have had no problems with it, except when I accidentally spilled some greasy spray onto the roof of the car, and one of the racks fell off on the highway... my bad. So I contacted e-trailer at the advice of (Rhino Rack themselves) and they were extremely helpful and prompt in getting a replacement to me at reasonable cost. While I like Rhino Rack products very much, I like e-trailer even better! They are a great company and very helpful, friendly, prompt, and affordable.
I purchased a Rhino rack vortex aero roof rack for my truck two years ago. I was in an accident that damaged the rhino rack legs. Erica at Etrailer referenced my past order and helped me order the correct replacement legs. very helpful. Thanks
Pretty good racks. You should be able to order individual replacement parts.
I ordered this system so I could haul a kayak on the roof of my standard cab pickup while towing my 5th wheel RV. Everything fit great and it was easy to install,and the system works great for me.
Rhino Rack was exactly what I needed. Etrailers got it to me quick. No complaints

Excellent. Rack handles my kayak perfectly
Not as good as yakima but they serve the purpose. If modifying the position it takes time.
I added a cross bar to the front of my Chevy 2500 crew cab so that I could transport a couple of canoes. These supports fit perfectly over the front doors. Can't wait to go canoeing!
The 2500 Rhino mounting legs or points are also made of a durable plastic material that will last for years. Assembly was super simple. The base easily snaps into the leg and hinges out of the way in order to insert and to adjust the tightening screw. I am very happy with the quality of the product.
Fit perfect , with no drip rail this had to be a well thought out precision fit to hold and not move . These are the items needed to make for a complete system . 100% satisfied .
Quick delivery. Good, easy to understand instructions in assembly. Haven’t yet put the bar to use but the solid construction and attachment to the side of the truck seems to be very good. Will was a great help as I needed only 1 bar for my needs. Thanks
Product as described. Etrailer service is fantastic!
Great service! So far so good. Highly recommend etrailer.com
Solid construction but the directions are worthless. Look online to get general idea of installation.
