Recommended Roof Rack for 2019 Honda Ridgeline

Question:

Is there a roof rack you can recommend which will fit a 2019 Honda Ridgeline truck? I will use it for a bunch of different cargo needs so it needs to be really sturdy and look good too!

The roof rack I recommend for your 2019 Honda Ridgeline is from Yakima because it will give your truck a roof rack that is not only very sturdy, but also quiet and will keep your Ridgeline looking great.

The correct parts for the roof rack will depend on if your '19 Ridgeline has a naked roof or factory installed rails that run front to back.

For a 2019 Honda Ridgeline with a naked roof the Yakima roof rack consists of:

- Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00426
- BaseLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y28TR
- BaseClip Fit Kit # Y06152

For a 2019 Honda Ridgeline with factory installed rails that run front to back the Yakima roof rack consists of:

- Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00426
- TimberLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y33TR

The JetStream crossbars are extremely functional and durable due to their anodized aluminum construction, which not only provides them with optimal strength but also ensures they are resistant to corrosion. These crossbars have T-slots which allow you to use channel-mounted accessories; the T-slots have rubber "SmartFill" strips in them which means you are not going to have to cut them to mount accessories, you can simply push the strips in to use the T-slots.

This roof rack will look graceful atop your truck due to the aerodynamic shape of the JetStream crossbars. The aero shape of these bars, along with their built-in WindRidges, is what ensures that this roof rack minimizes the amount of wind noise that other types of crossbars can create.

I do recommend adding the Yakima Same Key System (SKS) locks # Y07204 to lock the rack and help protect your investment; I have added links to video reviews of the roof rack and locks for you to take a look at as well as a photo showing this rack installed on a 2019 Honda Ridgeline. The wind fairing shown in the photo does not come with the rack.
