Yakima Roof Rack Review - 2017 Toyota Tacoma

Speaker 1: Today on our 2017 Toyota Tacoma, we're going to be test fitting the Yakima JetStream roof rack system using the baseline towers. We're using the 50-inch JetStream bars, part number Y00425, baseline tower kit, part number Y00146, and we need two base clip sets, part number Y06145 for the front, and Y06128 for the rear.Now a measurement that we often get requests for is the distance of the crossbar from the roof of the vehicle. This can help you out with garage situations and things like that to make sure you have enough room. Basically from the top of our Tacoma to the top of our crossbar, it's about 4 inches. That's from the lowest point of the roof, not on top of the corrugated part.Now, each of our covers does have a hole for a lock. You can pick up the Yakima same key system, slide it in there and turn it, and turn the basic cover into a locking cover.Something I really like about the Yakima roof rack system here with the baseline feet is that any point of contact we have with our vehicle is going to be rubber coated. more
