Video Transcript for Yakima SkyLine And Control Towers Landing Pad Review

Hi there adventures, today we're gonna be taking a look at Yakima's line of landing pads for their SkyLine Towers. And this is what our pads are gonna look like when they're installed. You can see how they attach directly to our factory raised rails, and they're gonna give us an attachment point so we can install a Yakima roof rack on here easily. And this really nice that you've got an option like this because some people just don't like having their roof rack on all the time, 'cause adding a roof rack does cause extra drag which can cause extra noise; wind noise and various things that you may not want all the time when you're driving around. You might just want this only for when you're using it, when you're going on vacation or different trips. So this is a really quick easy way to be able to take on and off a roof rack and also just a very easy way to get a roof rack installed, because often you have to do a lot of measurements and various things to get a roof rack installed, but this is just goes to factory attachment points, so most of the work is done for you.

Yakima's landing pads are designed to fix directly to the raised side rails and fixed points on your vehicle, giving you an easy attachment point to install a Yakima roof rack. The landing pad is designed to attach directly to Yakima's SkyLine Towers and then you can choose the rails that you want. We're showing off the JetStream rails today. The landing pads are gonna be custom-fit for your Vehicle, so you wanna make sure you use our Fit Guide to ensure you get the correct ones that will attach directly to yours. And I think one of the coolest parts about the landing pads here is how quickly you can remove the SkyLine Towers and rails from them, 'cause maybe you don't like the noise; the wind noise, and some other things that happens by putting a roof rack on your vehicle.

It's as easy as pulling out on the cover, and look at that, it lifts right off. We just pull the cover out on the other side and we can just set these in our garage. And we're ready to use them again, it just drop down in place, the cover pushes back on and that locks it in, and they're not going anywhere. Now one of the things I do recommend is switching out the cover here with a lock. You can get lock kits from Yakima here at etrailer, that will work directly with this and that will protect your investment.

That way nobody can just come up and you saw how easy and quickly it was for me to take this off. So it could work away at a potential camp site or something, so I highly recommend those. I also like that these go directly to a factory attachment point, 'cause even if you've got a factory roof rack, maybe that one's damaged, or maybe it doesn't work with your accessories, because it's just simple bars. This one here has T-slots, you got a lot of different options that you can get on a roof rack with, from Yakima here. So get rid of that old system, whether it's broken or just not working out for you and upgrade to a much better one.

If you have an older set of Yakima Control Towers, those will also attach to the landing pads. Since everything's custom-fit for the vehicle, and its going to fixed mounting points, these are extremely quick and easy to install. You follow along with me, I'll show you how to get it done right now. You'll begin your installation by locating your factory attachment points. Once you find those, you wanna remove the cover, it's gonna be different on every vehicle, but we're just gonna pop the cover off with a screw driver. We now take the hardware that comes in our kit and you'll notice that they're labeled. We've got a B on this one and an A on this one. So with the passenger side, the B is the front one, and A is the rear one; and on the driver side it flops, the A is gonna be the front one, and the B is gonna be the rear one. When you put them in place, you wanna be able to see, read the Yakima, so it's kinda like this, then it would just go just like that. So, we're gonna put our B up by the front one, and we're gonna take the A here at the back, and you'll see there is a hole there, right on top, that's gonna line up with the hole in our landing gear pad, so it's just gonna sit into place on there just like that. You'll then have the upper attachment point here, this is going to sit right on top and you also wanna be able to read the Yakima logo. We can then open it up, you might wanna open it up first, just 'cause it's a little stiff. And you'll see there's a hole in this component as well. We'll take the hardware that comes in our kit, we wanna put one of the washers on it, slide it down in there, and then we can use the included tool to run it right down into the top. We'll then repeat this for this three remaining locations. There's a little bit of lock tight that comes on your bolt, so if it feels a little stiff at a certain point, just be careful and just go faster, you can see here it gets stiff towards the end 'cause of that. Now in order to attach a roof rack to your new landing gear rails, you are gonna need Yakima SkyLine Towers. And then you can use whatever crossbars that you want with this. Now in order to get the rails attached to your SkyLine Feet, you need to use the hardware that comes included with your Yakima bars. It's gonna be different depending on the bars that you use. We're using the JetStream bars, so this is what our hardware is gonna look like. It's got a plastic piece and then this will insert in there, so it will slide into the bar. But this does vary depending on whatever your choice is. If you wanna refer to your instructions so you can get this properly attached, based on the bars that you had chosen. So now you can take your prepared bars, you need to have the cover open 'cause that's what's gonna lock it to our attachment point, and then we're just gonna set it in place. And you may need to adjust it, once we get it on there, we're gonna go ahead and just push that cover up, that's gonna insure this side stays on. And then we can go to our other side, and now we're just gonna even out our bar. And there's actually numbers written on the bottom, so you can just make it, so the numbers on the bottom are at the exact same point on each side. Then just open your cover back up once you've got them centered and tighten them down. There we go, we wanna have three clicks on our device so we get the proper torque. There we go. Close the cover back up and that's gonna lock it in place, and we'll just repeat that on the other side, and then install our front rail the same way. Next we're gonna take the rubber strips that come with your bars, and this is really just only for certain type of bars, you may or may not need to do this depending on the rails that you chose. But if you do have bars like this, we'll then put our strip in place. Wanna make sure that we've got it all the way up against our foot pad on the inside here. And then we're gonna run it all the way across to the other side and then cut it to length. And with the little bit of excess that you've got, you can use this as well to cover up the outside. And we're just gonna repeat this at each attachment point here, you got plenty of excess so if you don't make a great cut, you can always make another. And then we'll just repeat for each bar. And that completes our look at Yakima's line of landing pads for the SkyLine Towers..

have not used it yet but it looks like it will work. still need to buy the roof rack, which i will do once the holidays are over. cant go wrong with Yakima products.



by:

Bought these so I can use all of my "round bar" legacy equipment on my 2020 Outback. Note, this is only one of three items needed to transfer over the round cross bars. This item is a car specific base that fits where the factory bars are removed, You then add a tower and a specific bar adaptor one after another.

The intonations was smooth and the pads include the tools to remove the factory bars. The other two components mated nicely to the landing pads. Being able to remove the rack quickly and easily is a plus.

The easy removal and the "all plastic" nature of the pads is all why this is a 4 star item. The landing pads have a bit of flex and towers have some back and forth play when they are mounted. The plastic covers for that cover the pads when the rack is off do not appear all that secure. Losing them is more of a cosmetic and possibly a wind noise issue but a more secure connection would have been appreciated.

Subaru Outback Wagon

After years of collecting Yakima roof mounts for each new vehicle we acquired, I got lucky. It turns out that older rack mount sitting in my garage along with the landing pad 27 for my 2020 Suburu Outback fit perfectly. Save that old hardware! Yakima may help you adapt it to your new purchase. Thank You Yakima, and thank you etrailer!



by:

It’s awesome. I originally got the feet to direct mount to the roof instead using the factory rack (come on, Subaru!) and now am Dialed with room for two bikes and a rocket box on top (all modified for T track).



by:
2021 Subaru Outback Wagon

The quality is NOT what I expected. It's sad that Yakima can NOT make their own products instead of CHINA! I fully support US Mfg. The quality in foreign products is awful. This will be my last Yakima purchase.



by:
2015 Subaru Outback Wagon

Got this to work for my Yakima roof racks I had on my 2015 Subaru Outback, to now work on new 2022 Subaru Outback. Originally checked where I had bought the racks and they were out of stock. This is the 2nd time I start out somewhere else and end up buying at Etrailer. Next time I will be starting my shopping at etrailer.

  • 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon Roof Rack Recommendation for Installing Thule Hullavator Pro
    The OEM crossbars on your 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon don't have the correct design for the Thule Hullavator Pro # TH898 so we'll need to get you replacements. The Hullavator Pro requires at least 4" of overhang in order for it to be used without making contact with your Outback Wagon which is why we need new bars. I recommend going with the Yakima JetStream system because it gives you enough crossbar space to have the appropriate overhang and the towers install in place of your OEM crossbars...

  • How To Use Yakima LockNLoad Platfrom Rack On 2016 Subaru Outback
    I do have an option for you to use the Yakima LockNLoad Platform Rack but you must use their mounting feet as it will not work with the factory crossbars on a Subaru Outback. I have attached below a full list of parts needed to get the platform to fit.

  • Roof Rack Replacement for OEM Crossbars to Carry Rooftop Tent on 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon
    I'd be more than happy to help! To utilize a rooftop tent, like the Yakima SkyRise HD # Y07437, you'll actually need to remove your factory rack and replace it with an aftermarket kit. I really like the Yakima JetStream roof racks because they are not only great quality, but the legs have adjustments in them to ensure that you get the best fit possible. For this setup you'll need the following: 50" JetStream Crossbars - Black # Y00425 SkyLine Towers - # Y53TR Landing Pad 27 - # Y46VR Lock...

  • Are There Any Additional Hardware Needed for the Rola Roof Cargo Basket on a 2020 Subaru Outback?
    I have a solution for you. While the Rola Roof Cargo Basket - Steel - 73-1/4" Long x 40-1/2" Wide x 5" Deep - 180 lbs (model 59504 with the 59505 extension) includes all the hardware needed for installation, you will need a roof rack system with crossbars on your 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon in order to use the basket. If you need a roof rack system that will fit the Rola Roof Cargo basket, the compatible parts depend on if you have factory flush rails or factory raised rails. For a compatible...

  • How To Replace Factory Crossbars On 2020 Subaru Outback for Rooftop Tent
    The highest capacity roof rack option we offer for a 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon which will replace the factory crossbars is the Yakima JetStream Crossbar System part # Y00425, part # Y53TR, and part # Y46VR which will provide a 165 lb capacity. I'd also like to point out that most tents have a built-in support device (ladder) so the roof rack only needs to be rated for a certain amount, usually 165 lbs. The Thule system only provides a 130 lb weight capacity.

    Yes, it will! The Yakima OffGrid Roof Cargo Basket item # Y07138-08 will work great with the Yakima JetStream Crossbars item # Y00425. You will also need the TimberLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars item # Y33TR to attach to the Wilderness rails of the 2023 Subaru Outback.

    I do have an option for you but the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack cannot be used on a 2020 Subaru Outback per Rhino Rack. That said, we do have a very similar option for you in the Yakima LockNLoad Platform Rack part # Y05044-39. That said, this will need to be mounted using the below items as it won't fit the factory crossbars. The Rhino-Rack Pioneer and Yakima LockNLoad are both very similar.

  • Can I Use The Thule Hullavator On Factory Crossbars With No Overhang?
    The Thule Hullavator # TH898 will require crossbars that overhang the towers by 4' - 8". There is not any kind of adapter that is made for this purpose. Your best bet will be to replace the factory crossbars with aftermarket crossbars that have some overhang. Since your 2023 Subaru Outback already has the factory installed rails running front to back, you will be able to mount crossbars using these rails. I recommend the Yakima JetStream Roof Rack, which will consist of the following parts: Yakima...

    The Yakima MajorShady 270 Awning # Y82AV installs via the T-Slots in a roof rack so we'll need to get you an aftermarket roof rack since your 2024 Subaru Outback Wagon OEM crossbars don't have that T-Slot system. For something that's cost-effective and gets the job done I recommend the Malone AirFlow2, but if you're wanting something with higher quality and will be a better setup for longevity then I recommend the Yakima JetStream system.

    While I really do like the Yakima LockNLoad Platform Rack # Y05044-39, there are two issues with what you're wanting to do; the SkyBox NX 16 has the mounting areas recessed so even if you installed the T-Slot kit it wouldn't be able to fit on the LockNLoad, plus the weight of the LockNLoad, MajorShady 270, and the cargo box would be 137 lbs which means you can only load up to 28 lbs of luggage in the box.

  • Can Yakima Q Towers Be Installed on a 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon
    The Landing Pad 27 does fit your 2020 Subaru Outback Wagon, but this landing pad is only designed to work with the SkyLine and Control Towers. Unfortunately Yakima only manufactured the Q Towers from 1993 to 2004 so they didn't keep up with fit kits for newer vehicles. So while the Landing Pad 27 fits your vehicle, the kit isn't compatible with your Q Towers and Yakima doesn't have a fit kit for the Q Towers to fit your vehicle.
