The square bars have been redesigned by Thule, instead of having a foot pack that comes around the top and crimps it right there, we're actually going to have a track, right here, just like in the wing bars, to where we can slide our foot pack in, and then it's going to attach down from there. It's also going to lock inside the track.Now, down below what's connecting our crossbar to our raised side rail is going to be our Evo raised rail foot. more

Up top, we're going to have our Yakima CoreBar cross bars. These are going to be made out of steel with a vinyl coating on top to help protect it from rust and corrosion.

Thule AeroBlade Crossroad Roof Rack Installation - 2014 Nissan Rogue- Video
Today on our 2014 Nissan Rogue, we'll be test fitting the Thule Rapid Crossroads Roof Rack System using part numbers THARB47 and TH450R. We'll begin our test fit by placing the front load bar up to the front of our roof on our raised side rails. Now you'll see that there's a connection point where the parallel bars and the raised side rails connect to the anchor points which secure the raised side rails to the roof. I'll just make sure it's about an inch apart from the first part of that foot pack to that crease. Doing this on both side will ensure the front load bar is perpendicular to the roof of our Rogue. With the front bar in position, we'll pop off the end caps and bring the rubber-coated steel straps around the underside of the raised rail. We'll hook them into the connection points and use the Allen tool connected to the end cap to tighten down the black bolt. more

Thule Traverse Roof Rack Installation - 2013 Nissan Rogue- Video
Today on our 2013 Nissan Rogue, we'll be test fitting the Thule traverse roof rack system using part number t-h-l-b 58, t-h 480 and t-h-k-i-t 1587. With our roof rack assembled according to the instructions, we'll begin our test fit by opening both front doors. We'll grab our front bar and place it on to the front part of our roof. To ensure that we have this bar in the correct location, we need to measure 12 inches from the leading edge of the windshield to the closest point of the foot pack. We'll do this measurement on both sides to ensure that our feet are in line with each other. Then we can use the included Allen tool to tighten the Allen bolt to secure our clamps around the roofline of our Rogue. We'll tighten a little bit at a time on each side to ensure we don't lose our position. Once we have those tight, we can slide the tool into the foot pack and close the cover. We'll grab our rear bar and open our rear doors. more

We'll use the anchor point, where the side rails anchor down to the vehicle's roof, where we will place our front load bar next to. This will ensure that our front bar is perpendicular to the roof and in the same spot on both sides. With the bar in place, we can pop off the end caps and bring the rubber-coated steel straps around the underside of the bar and hook them into the connection points. We can then turn the black bolt to tighten down the straps up against the side rail of our Xterra. more

Today on our 2010 Nissan Altima, we'll be test fitting the Yakima round bar roof rack system, with a length of 48 inches, part number Y00408, the Q-35 Q clips for Yakima Q towers, part number Y00635, and the Yakima Q tower feet for a naked roof, part number Y00124. To begin out test fit, we'll place the front cross bar, already assembled, onto our Altima. The instructions tell us to measure 10 inches from the top edge of the glass to the closest part of the Q tower, to ensure a good fit. By measuring this on both sides of our Altima, our Yakima roof rack will be evenly aligned. Once everything is situated correctly, we'll tighten the thumb screws inside our Q towers, alternating on each side to keep an even fit. When the Q towers are tightened, we can close the cap. Now we'll open our rear doors, and place the back half of the rack onto our Altima. We'll need to measure again from the center of each cross bar, to get the correct placement of our second bar. The cross bar spread should be 32 inches, and as before, we'll measure this on both sides of our Altima. more

Once we have them in line, we can then bring the strap around our bar, fit it back into the foot of the carrier, and use the included tool to tighten it down. Once we have it secure, we can slide the tool back into the foot pack and move to the other side and repeat the same process. We'll grab our rear bar and place it onto the rear part of our side rails. We want to make sure that our bars are going to be parallel, so we need to set a load bar spread and have a minimum of 24 inches. We'll measure from the center of the front bar to the center of the rear bar. more
