I though I would love the core bar set up on my truck but I have really grown to love them! Weather it’s bikes, kayaks or a ladder it works great! And even better it looks great! Quieter than Thule square bars and Yakima round bars by far. I would not only buy again but one of the bars was damaged in shipment and etrailer took care of it by sending a new one to replace it right away. Will be buying from them again! Good customer service!!!!



by:

Awesome price! Shipped to me fast and it's an amazing product. Customer service helped me through some ordering confusion and got everything figured out very smoothly. Love the roof rack!

If you are not confident with the rack I can see if there is a better fitting roof rack for your 2013 F-150. Do you have a Regular, Super, or SuperCrew Cab?

Thanks for reaching out. I already purchased what I needed to mount it directly on the roof. Much happier with this solution.



by:

Excellent

From start to finish, the folks at etrailer -- and I spoke to several people there, so it was a consistent corporate vibe -- were fantastic to deal with.

There were delays in getting my product that were on the supplier side and out of eTrailer's control, yet etrailer folks kept me up to date and also worked on a customized solution.

My goal was to be able to carry my surfboard on the roof of our 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe to the beach more than 3 hours away. But the particular model we had had no existing racks, no recessed areas, nothing to fix racks to. Not even the dealer had a solution. I was sh*t out of luck.

But etrailer hooked me up. The racks did take me a while to put on, but most of that time was fine tuning to reduce “hum” while driving. I’m very happy with them.

Thanks to etrailer, I have gone surfing and can go surfing whenever I'd like to.

Love my Yakima roof rack!! It exceeds my expectations.great product. Also thank etrailer for the tec support! great staff always there to help thanks again!!

I have a 10th gen Civic sedan and I was dying to get the perfect roof rack set for my car. At the time of my purchase there was not many visuals of what the rack system looked like on this car.

I purchased the:

•Yakima 50in Jetstream crossbars
•Yakima baseline towers
•bc182 & bc183 clips
•Yakima 46in fairing

Overall I love how it looks on my car! During This COVID pandemic I have been camping more, and this is the perfect foundation! First off, the 46in fairing is the perfect fit for the 10th gen civic! Wind noise is low also with the help of the aerodynamic crossbars. My main concern was the fuel efficiency. On long road trips I still average 38-40 mpg with the rack on. My daily commutes I average 34 mpg without Econ on.



by:

Works perfectly on my 2023 Chevy Silverado. The rubber pads are soft enough to prevent scratches, yet firm enough to support the force of being cranked down on the roof. They fit perfectly in the ridge near the edges of the rough.



by:

Overall these are a great product and much needed. I had a Tiguan with the side rails but needed cross rails for my gear. When I got my Jetta I wanted to keep my Yakima cross rails so I needed the Towers. They work great and fit my car well. I took them off recently after having them on for a year for re-fitment.



by:

I ordered the Yakima "aero" bars , baseline towers, and BaseClip kits for my 2019 Honda Civic 5 door. While expensive the quality is excellent and it was a pleasure to assemble such a high quality and precision engineered product. It fits perfectly on my new car and the "aero" bars are quiet even at freeway speeds. Highly recommended.



by:

Hyundai Sonata - glass pano roof. These items have been on for about 1-year. So happy with the set up. I’ve take a road bike and a mountain bike on 500+ mile trips. The mounts do an excellent job.



by:

Arrived as part of a set of components for a roof rack and kayak carrier. I liked that etrailer had a guide to get the right components to fit my car's make and model year. This baseclip set arrived quickly, but the set for the rear of the car that arrived with them were obviously returns that had not been inspected. That set was missing parts, requiring follow-up calls to arrange for a new replacement for the incomplete set, and about a week's delay in getting the rack up on the car.



by:

Works just like the old towers except they pivot to give a snugger fit on the truck, which makes this tower fit easier and less likely to come loose or break like the other towers. Also it is nice to have a rack on the front of the cab for long items, like full size canoe, that would be too long and need the extra length to fit. Without the extra tower the canoe has to shift back and hang off the back too much and securing the front of the canoe is more challanging.



by:

The installation was super easy, and despite a long time stuck in shipping the delivery itself was extremely fast, and the package arrived in spotless condition. The manuals were very easy to follow, and the end result is absolutely amazing. They provided a nice, flush finish and hold the racks down tight.

The Yakima products are doing great. Just got home yesterday from a 18 day trip using them in Michigan's upper peninsula. Love them. Great products. Thanks again.



by:

These are great, and it is so nice to get a custom base clips that match the angles and contour of the sides of your roof. Makes it look very clean. These are made very well and for sure these will last a long time like my other Yakima products.



by:

The clips are fine . I will review etrailer. I needed just clips I asked them which ones they told me. Great place.



by:

Clips are perfect and the etrailer.com experience was great. Ordered on a weekend and had the clips as promised by the following Wednesday.



by:

Customer service was excellent, they called me to tell me one item was backordered and how long it would be. Package was shipped with enough packing material. Install was pretty easy, some of the Yakima measurements in the manual are a couple inches off but no big deal. This will be used to carry a box for when the family takes trips. Can pile all the luggage up top and have more room in the car. I would recommend the Yakima corebar roof rack and etrailer! Their price was lower than 2 other sites I checked.



by:

Got exactly what I needed :)



by:

The rack has been so useful since I purchased it. Staff at etrailer.com were exceptionally helpful in getting the best option for my car and answering questions. I recommend this company, for its 110% customer service, excellent prices and timely delivery.



by:

Base clips arrived quickly and worked just as expected. Make sure you know the model that you need before ordering.



by:

The yakima jetstream crossbar looks beautiful. Quality is great. Took my vehicle for a test drive, and i didnt hear anything loose or broken from the bars. Very satisfied with the product and the instructions were great. It was my first time installing a roof rack too.

  • Single Crossbar Recommendation for a 2013 Ford F-150 SuperCrew Cab
    We definitely have a half system available that includes only a single crossbar for your canoe. For a great option for your 2013 Ford F-150 SuperCrew cab, I recommend the following parts: - Yakima JetStream Crossbar - 60" # 8880649 - x2 of the BaseLine Towers # 8880618 - BaseClip Fit Kit # Y06168 With the JetStream crossbar, you receive the benefits of an aerodynamic shape that leads to a quieter ride and increased fuel efficiency.

  • Roof Rack for 2011 Ford F-150 to Carry Two Thule Hullavator Kayak Carriers
    Since the max crossbar width the Thule Hullavator part # TH898 can take up is 28-1/2 inches for a roof rack that fits your 2011 Ford F-150 that would work great is the 60 inch bar width Yakima Jetstream roof rack part numbers # Y00426, # Y00146, and # Y06168 which the Hullavator can fit into the top channels of and would easily accommodate both racks. This will install on the roof of the truck though. If you'd prefer a solution for the cap let me know.

    To install your existing Yakima JetStream Crossbars like the 60" # Y00426 (which is the length recommended for your truck) on your 2012 Ford F-150 SuperCrew you will need the BaseLine Towers # Y28TR and the BaseClip Fit Kit # Y06168.

    According to Yakima, for your 20123 Ford F-150 Raptor, you're unfortunately not going to be able to use the older Q-clips. Instead, you're going to need to be using the BaseClip Fit Kit for Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack Towers # Y06168. This fit kit is going to work great with the BaseLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y28TR and standard crossbars like the Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00426.

  • Can Four Bike Racks fit Yakima Roof Rack on 2013 Ford F-150 Super Crew Cab?
    The weight capacity of the roof rack you mentioned that fits your 2013 Ford F-150 Super Crew: Yakima CoreBar Crossbars # Y00422, BaseLine Towers # Y28TR and BaseClip Fit Kit # Y06168 (you will need a quantity of 2) has a weight capacity of 125 lbs. The determining factor in regards to capacity will be whatever is lower, the rack or the capacity of your F-150's roof.

  • Recommended Roof Rack And Canoe Carrier For 2012 Ford F-150 SuperCrew Cab
    The Yakima JetStream Roof Rack will work well on your 2012 F-150 SuperCrew. This roof rack includes the JetStream crossbars # Y00426, BaseLine towers # Y28TR, and fit kit # Y06168 designed for your F-150. To help cut down on the wind noise I recommend a fairing like part # Y05018. This attached to the front crossbar and has rubber bumpers that protect the truck finish.
