If you’re a tradesman that secures your equipment inside a bed cap and would like to be able to carry lengthy cargo like ladders, or if you use your truck for pleasure and would like to be able to carry additional camping or sporting equipment, but you want a setup that will also complement your truck’s appearance, the Aero Cap Topper Roof Rack is for you. This roof rack system enables cargo, including all Rhino-Rack roof rack accessories, to be carried on top of a hard roof, bed cap, or hardshell tonneau cover. On a bed cap it can be used in conjunction with a single or a pair of cab mounted cross bars to safely haul long ladders or building supplies.

This roof rack includes stylish, aerodynamic, heavy-duty cross bars and your choice of fixed mount legs or adjustable track mount legs. The cross bars are designed and shaped to diminish wind noise for a quiet ride, reduce drag to save you money at the pump, and complement your pickup’s good looks. Manufactured from extruded structural grade aluminum, these cross bars feature strong 3 chamber construction and an internal H section uni strut for additional load support that helps avoid bar bend when carrying heavier loads. They come with a protective rubber top insert to cushion and protect cargo resting on the cross bar. This strip can be removed to reveal the C-Channel, so rack accessories that use this method of attachment can be mounted to the cross bar.

All legs are manufactured from rugged UV stabilized glass reinforced nylon. The fixed mount legs install to holes that must be drilled in the cap or tonneau with the included hardware. Internal backing plates are included to cover up the mounting hardware on the underside of the cap or tonneau for neat look. Track mount legs install to tracks that are installed on the cap or tonneau. The position of the legs can be adjusted in the tracks to accommodate the size of the cargo. The tracks are mounted to holes that must be drilled in the cap or tonneau using the included hardware. The tracks are 63” in length, but they can be trimmed to fit. “No Track” roof racks come with track mount legs and are intended for use on vehicles that already have tracks.

The Rhino-Rack Aero Cap Topper Roof Rack System comes with detailed, illustrated instructions and it’s covered by a limited lifetime warranty to the original purchaser against defects in materials and workmanship.

Great Rack, but Wind Whistle
Rhino-Rack® Y01-120B - Heavy Duty Black Track Mount Roof Rack System
This one is great, and holds my kayak nicely. I already had the headliner out so installation was straightforward, but I wouldn't call it simple. Bolts were plenty long and had to be cut off to get the headliner back in. I like the way the rails attach to the track -- very easy but still sturdy. And when I take the rack off and put the caps over the mounting pedestals, you hardly notice there's anything there. Only problem is that it whistles badly -- possibly due to the ramp shape of the roof just in front of the forward rail of the rack. I covered the end caps on the rails, and that was not the problem. I'll cover the bottom track of that forward rail to solve it.

I would give this 5 stars, but the only problem I had was that the bars made a howling noise at certain speeds. There are ways to mitigate and it's more of an inconvenience than an issue.

Very trustworthy, even with a kayak strpped to it. Only complaint is when it has nothing on tge rails, there's a light whistle.

Got it a bit ago because it came in right on time, but didn't put it on my car until recently. Didn't take long at all to put up and strapped a kayak to it that night. Was able to drive around with it up there with no worries. Only complaint is that when nothings strapped to the rails, there is a light whistle you hear when driving around but oh well I'm just happy to have rails that are trustworthy.

Rhino-Rack® - Vortex 2500 Roof Rack System
Reviews have to be reviewed by CARiD before posted. Such a scam.

I originally ordered an Amazon special trying to save money and be cheap, turned out to be junk, ordered this roof rack a few weeks ago, finally installed in on my 2013 Chevy Cruze, really solid, doesn't move at all. I really like it, installation was fairly easy, highly recommend if you want something solid.

Rhino-Rack 2500 Heavy Duty Roof Rack System
Rhino-Rack® JA0219 - Heavy Duty 2500 Silver Roof Rack System
Received rack promptly. All parts were included. Instructions could be clearer, but overall I was pleased with the prompt shipment and packaging. Took me about 2 hours to assemble and install on my F-150. It is one solid high quality rack! It is well worth the time it takes to install it. Once you are done, removal and reinstallation is a piece of cake. The instructions and decals provided allow you to put the rack back on exactly where it needs to go. Very pleased with my purchase.
