Rhino Rack Roof Rack Review - 2017 Nissan Altima- Video
Today on our 2017 Nissan Ultima, we're going to be test-fitting the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack system consisting of part numbers RRVA126S-2, these are the silver crossbars; part number RRRLKVA, and these are the 2500 Series legs for the Vortex Aero Crossbars; and part number DK381, and this is the custom fit kit for your Ultima that clamps it on to your vehicle. Now, we already have the front on installed, and you can see that it has this nice aerodynamic shape to the bar itself, and that coupled with the rubber strip on the top here will actually cut down the wind noise and drag while you're driving. It is lockable, so once you actually attach both crossbars to your vehicle, it is secured to your vehicle as well. Now, the combined weight capacity for both bars is 165 pounds, although you always want to double-check with your owner's manual to make sure your roof can withstand that kind of weight. Also, these do come in black as part number RRVA126FB-2. All right, let's go ahead and show you how the rear one goes on. We already have it partially assembled on our table, here. We'll go ahead and take our 2500 Series leg, and we'll actually slide it into our track here with this metal bracket, here. It'll just slide in like so, and then we're going to go ahead and do a couple of measurements here to determine the spacing between this edge here and our leg. Normally, you would have measuring strips that you would cut to length, put them in there so it's more of a permanent application, but for demonstration purposes, we'll just go ahead and measure it out. You can find these measurements in your instructions. more

Inno Roof Rack Review - 2017 Nissan Altima- Video
Today in our 2017 Nissan Altima, we're going to be test fitting the Inno Roof Rack System, consisting of part numbers INB127, these are the Inno square crossbars, 50 inches long; part number INSU-K5, these are the Inno feet for the square crossbars for naked roofs; and part number INK625, this is the custom fit kit for this particular vehicle. The Inno Roof Rack is great for carrying a wide variety of accessories ranging from bike racks to cargo baskets to enclosed cargo boxes to ski carriers to some water sport carriers. The bars are nice and sturdy and have a carrying capacity of 220 pounds, although you always want to double check with your vehicle's manual to make sure your roof can stand that amount of weight. Now that we've gone over some of the features of the roof rack, let's go ahead and show you how it installs. We have a front one installed already and we had the rear one partially assembled. This is basically what we're going to get with your roof rack kit here. We'll have the foot, the pad, and the actual clamp itself that goes around, plus these two pieces which fit onto the foot as well. First off, we'll go ahead and place our foot on the end of our square bar here. You see that it has a square opening, however you have to push the bolt here down. more
