Expert Answers about Honda Roof Rack


  • Will A Gutter Mount Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Support A Rooftop Tent With Two People
  • Hey Ashley, In the past Thule has stated that rain gutters were strong enough to support a rooftop tent so you'd likely be fine with the Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty Roof Rack Crossbar # RB1500B and Rhino-Rack Roof Rack Legs # RL210S2, but would still want to verify the weight capacity of the gutters in your Jeep's owner's manual. The roof rack components are typically going to be rated well over the necessary capacity but the roof isn't always as high capacity so the ability to use your accessories...

  • Hey Curtis, The Rhino-Rack Roof Rack for Factory Tracks # Y02-480B-NT weighs approximately 14lbs and would be capable of handling the weight of an awning but you'd want to refer to weight capacity of the roof it's being installed on.

  • Roof Rack for 2015 Honda CR-V for Older Model Thule Hullavator

  • What Is The Capacity Of The Front Runner Roof Rack for RSI Double Cap Smart Truck Bed Canopy #FR96FV
  • Hi Curtis, Manufacturers have recently switched to not including the weight capacity of the roof rack because they're engineered to be stronger than the capacity of the roof and people were overloading/damaging their roofs thinking that the crossbar capacity was what to go off of. Most aftermarket crossbars are going to be rated for at least 165lbs. You'll want to refer to you vehicle's owner's manual for the roof's capacity when using the Front Runner Roof Rack for RSI Double Cap Smart...

  • Is The 165LB Weight Rating The Dynamic Weight Capacity For The Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack?
  • Yes, the 165lb rating for the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack # MPG215 is the dynamic(driving) capacity for these. Since the tent weighs 165lbs and the roof rack is 10 you are still just under the 176lb capacity of the roof rails on your 2019 Subaru Forester.

  • Can The Thule Hullavator Be Mounted On Gobi Round Bar Crossbars
  • Hey Stephen, If your Gobi roof rack round bars extend 4" - 8" past the feet and you can spread them at least 24" apart then you would be able to mount the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Roof Rack # TH898. Your vehicle's roof must have a load capacity of at least 130lbs to use the Hullavator so you'll want to check your owner's manual to confirm.

  • Recommended Low Profile Roof Raco For A 2016 Chevy Express Van
  • Hello Cameron, I can definitely help with that. The best option for a low-profile roof rack for your 2016 Chevy Express Van is the Inno Square Bar Roof Rack. The complete rack consists of the following parts: Inno Square Crossbars # INB165 Inno Feet for Square Crossbars # IN72FR The Inno Feet are the shortest gutter mount feet we offer at 5-1/2" tall overall, so they will add as little height to the roof as possible. These "gutter mount' style feet are also quite easy to install. They...

  • Recommended Roof Rack For A 2015 Honda CR-V EX With Naked Roof And Thule Hullavator
  • Hi Aileen, For your 2015 Honda CR-V with a naked roof I recommend a Yakima roof rack # Y33AB (black crossbars) or # Y36EB (silver crossbars). Yakima crossbars have a mounting bracket channel that runs the full length of the crossbar unlike other brands that only give you about 5" or 6". This will allow you to easily adjust the crossbars over enough to hit the 4" clearance requirement that the Hullavator # TH898 requires. I've attached a shot video below where you can see how this rack...

  • Which Rhino-Rack Roof Rack With 63 Inch Tracks For Leer Canopy
  • Hey there Stormy, I think we can figure this out, as there are a quite a few options. First, let's just discount the heavy-duty rack, as those are just oddly shaped crossbars and there's nothing HD about them (like you mentioned, they have the same weight rating). That leaves us with the other two that have aero crossbars, though you did mention one with 54 inch crossbars and one with 59 inch crossbars, and I'm not sure which is right for you (measure the width of your canopy and you'll...

  • Can The Yakima TimberLine FX Roof Rack for Raised Side Rails Support a Rooftop Tent?
  • The Yakima TimberLine FX Roof Rack for Raised Side Rails # Y48UV has a maximum capacity of 165lbs. Do understand you will want to check your owners manual or with your dealership to verify the maximum capacity your roof is capable of carrying. As most roofs are not going to be rated for the amount of weight required for a tent you might check out the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer with SkyRise HD Tent # Y08129-3627 which can easily be towed by most vehicles.

  • Length/Width of Yakima BaseLine FX Roof Rack Crossbars For 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe w/ Bare Roof
  • Hi John; great choice going with the Yakima roof rack for your 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe with a bare roof, and the crossbars themselves are 2-3/4" wide x 1-1/8" tall for the Yakima BaseLine FX Roof Rack # Y59UV. That should allow you to clamp any accessory on them as they are standard size crossbars. To complete the set up for your' 19 Santa Fe you'll also need the BaseClip Fit Kit # Y06151 and # Y06154.

  • Recommended Roof Rack and Track Length for a 2020 Ford F-350 Topper
  • There's no information on Snugtop's website on how long their topper is for your F-350 short bed. They just list that they have one which isn't helpful for your question. We have the Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack for Camper Shells item # Y02-480B listed as fitting camper shells for your truck though. These come with 63" long tracks that can be trimmed. I recommend taking a measurement of the flat surface where these would mount on your topper. If you get some really short number because...

These will fit in the tracks of the heavy duty crossbars and give you an attachment point for your solar panels. The bolt size is M6 x 25mm.

  • How to Pick Out Wind Fairing for Roof Rack on Vehicle
  • Measure the distance between the feet or raised rails on the roof of your vehicle and pick out the Yakima fairing that falls right under that dimension in overall length.

The great thing about Yakima fairings is that unlike other fairings their hardware can fit all crossbar shapes.

  • Does the Malone FoldAway-5 Kayak Carrier MAL38FR Fit the 2016 Toyota 4Runner's Factory Crossbars?
  • It should. I don't have the specs on your 2016 Toyota 4Runner's factory crossbars but the Malone FoldAway-5 item # MAL38FR is designed to fit factory bars. You will just need to take a quick measurement of your roof rack to confirm. So long as the crossbars are no larger then 3-1/2" x 1-1/2" tall and can be spread out a minimum of 24" then the Malone item # MAL38FR will work. If your roof rack ends up not being compatible you can install the Rhino-Rack Vortex StealthBar Roof Rack item...

  • What is the Weight Rating of the Yakima 54" Tracks for Roof Racks Y26RR?
  • The Yakima 54" Tracks for Roof Racks item # Y26RR do not have a weight rating. The crossbars, towers, and your camper shell will determine the capacity. You'll want to go with whatever one has the lowest rating.

  • How to Pick Out Correct Roof Rack Fairing for 2020 Porsche Cayenne Roof Rack
  • Hey Phil, so Thule doesn't list fits for their fairings but we can still help you pick out what you would want. The key is to measure the distance between the feet or front to back rails on the vehicle roof rack and then go with the fairing that fits that measurement the best. So if you get 44 inches or slightly over the part # TH82WV would be what you would want. We also have a 52 inch long fairing part # TH22WV and 38 inch part # TH72WV.

  • Will The Rhino-Rack Nautic SUP/Kayak Carrier Mount To Subaru Outback Factory Crossbars
  • Hey Michael, The Rhino-Rack Nautic SUP or Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # RR570 has a maximum crossbar dimensions of 3-7/8" wide x 1-3/8" tall so you'd just need to measure your factory crossbars to see if they fall within this sizing. You'll also want to verify the weight capacity of your crossbars as a lot of factory crossbars tend to be limited to only 100lbs, which wouldn't be enough for your Hobie Mirage Compass Duo kayak. If your crossbars fall outside of the fitment range or don't...
