Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer.com and today, we are looking at our Rhino-Rack Roof Rack System with Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero crossbars and SRB feet on our 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander. We have here, the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero crossbars and these are 49 inches long here on our Outlander. As you can see, it has this nice, slim, elliptical design which allows it to be extremely aerodynamic so that you will have less drag and wind noise while you're driving down the highway with these on. On the inside, they have these Vortex rubber strips with their T track channels on the inside, to be used with T track accessories. The end caps of these crossbars come with plastic lock cores, so use the included Rhino-Rack plastic key to lock and unlock these end caps. You can also get lock cores that can be keyed alike, and these are metal lock cores if you want to add it on.

These crossbars can be used to mount your cargo baskets, your roof boxes, your bike racks. So you have that Aero style crossbar which they can clamp around, or you can mount them to the T tracks. With a weight capacity of 165 pounds, you can load these up with your different accessories, but please note to follow whichever is lower of your bars or your roof weight capacity. Now, let's take some measurements. We have them here on our Outlander, so measuring from the top of the roof to the bars, it is three and a half inches.

So these are low profile. Let's take some measurements for the clearance between our roof and the bottom of the bar sill. And that sits at two and a quarter inches. We have them here on our SRB legs or towers. Now, these mount to the flush side rails we have on our Outlander, I really like this design.

One, it's low profile, looks good, almost a factory look. But two, they are super easy to mount and install. One of the easiest I've ever had to use. This comes with a lock if you want to secure your roof rack and locking that in place allows you to prevent someone taking it out and maybe stealing your roof rack. Just put that and secure it.

We have these with 49 inch crossbars, so we have an overhang past our side rails of five inches. I already installed one crossbar, so we will install this one together. It's super easy. First, make sure that your end cap is unlocked, and then you can pop it off like that. Then take your foot mount and place it inside your crossbar's channel. And once that's in place, you can put the end cap back on. On your flush rails, there are mounting points and these have caps on them. So what I like to do is use this flat head screwdriver and just pop those caps off to make space for our crossbar. From here, you can then put it on your roof. What I like to do is use my Moki doorstep, just to give myself some extra leverage while I am up there, like that. And then, place them right where your mounting points are on your flush side rails. With it up here, it's super easy to push the crossbar back and forth on your feet, just to make sure that they are even on each side. And once they are, to tighten them down, you just rotate this knob here at the back. Once it's fully tightened, you can pop this knob back into position and lock it in place with your included keys. Also, while you're here, make sure that your end caps are also locked. And that was a look here at our Rhino-Rack Roof Rack System for our 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander..
