VEVOR Roof Rack Cross Bars, Aluminum Roof Rack Crossbars, Fit Raised Side Rail with Gap, 200 lbs Load Capacity, Adjustable Crossbars with Locks, for SUVs, Sedans, and Vans

I admit my expectations were quite low for the price, but these are actually quite good. Certainly nothing fancy like you'd get with Thule or Yakima, and though I haven't used those brands, I'm betting the installation was not nearly as easy.I put these on before taking a 2.5 hour trip on the highway with a Yakima rocketbox on it, figured that would be a good test. I dare say they are quieter than the factory crossbars on my 2016 rav4, which seems strange, maybe it was the air gap it created between the cargo box and the roof. End of the trip everything was still nice and tight, exactly where I put it.Installation is kind of a pain, having to screw that stupid Allen screw in and out for the clamping is difficult unless the bar end is far enough out from the clamp to clear the end of the wrench. In hindsight, I should have used a drill. The other difficulty, is the Allen bolts with the rail slides on the bottoms have no explanation in the instructions, they are not mentioned or pictured anywhere. I figured they must be stops to prevent the bars from slipping side to side, so I tightened them on the inside side of the clamps, right up against them.They've been on for a couple weeks now, still rock solid. Now I should be able to fit my kayak next to my cargo box.

They were very easy to install and very good quality. Would definitely buy again.

The “ratchet system” doesn’t even ratchet properly. It just clicks once you get it so tight but it’s not even close to being tight enough. One little shove and it pops right off. Do not buy these if you actually intend on using them to haul things. Just for show… sure. But don’t trust these with any weight. Terrible design

Fits nicely. I had a problem with one clip, the teeth in one of brackets wouldn’t bite. I had to adjust it several times but it’s on now and does the trick

Awesome for the price. Be careful with the rachet lever. It is plastic and will break if you crank on it.

Poor fitment out of the box unless the distance between the rain gutter/roof indent is very specific. Extremely unclear description on item for sale within Amazon description. The towers foot needs to be inside of the gutter rail groove according to the instructions included in the box . However nothing mentions you cannot mount these outside of the gutter rail within the Amazon description from the manufacturer. This necessitates, adjusting the overall width and cutting of the aluminum bars and disassembling the tower/ratcheting mechanism. Not a problem if you’re handy and have the correct tools which. Remove the 3x Phillips screws, remove plastic cover, drill out the 2 rivets, remove mechanism, and cut off necessary amount to properly place tower feet. I also had to file and modify the roof/door clips in order to get the ratcheting strap to even rotate and correctly attach within the roof clips. product is very nice upon unboxing however, quality control is highly lacking during installation. I have installed higher end roof racks before, and everything goes smoothly. Expect significant road bumps with this as well as little surprises along the way. I also recommend a nylon locking nut with the largest washer you can fit in the underside tower attachment to prevent cracking of the tower and half-barrel nut. I also recommend reduced torque in this area to allow toggling of the tower base without excessive resistance. If you over torque the nut on the stud, you will damage the tower. The nut just needs to be secured two finger tight with a small ratchet and beyond that it will deform and crack the plastic. You should expect this for the price. It is a good system. I believe if you are handy enough to overcome the quality control issues it is definitely an affordable and acceptable system for the price point.

Fit my 2021 Jeep grand Cherokee perfectly and was so easy to install I did it myself!!! Looks fantastic and very sturdy. Highly recommend.

Easy installation very well made
