Yakima SkyLine Towers are used to put a roof rack on a vehicle with factory tracks or factory fixed point mounting hardware. They are also great for custom installations on naked roofs or fiberglass canopies. The SkyLine Towers can be used with Yakima's aerodynamic JetStream Bars and CoreBars, or classic Yakima RoundBars with the use of the StreamLine Roundbar Adapter Kit. SkyLine Towers attach to Landing Pad bases to create a complete roof rack system. To determine if the SkyLine is a fit with your vehicle, use the Yakima Fit Guide or contact us for help with custom fits.
Easy-to-use snap-fit design
Yakima's SkyLine Towers use a super fast snap-fit design to attach to a Landing Pad base. Simply flip open the front cover of the tower and the attachment bolts retract from the Landing Pad. To determine which Landing Pad is right for your vehicle, use the Yakima Fit Guide. For custom mounts, see the Landing Pad 1 for tracks, Landing Pad 6 for fiberglass canopies, and Landing Pad 7 for sheet metal roofs.
Strong stainless steel construction
The Yakima SkyLine Towers are designed and constructed from stainless steel, die-cast aluminum, glass reinforced nylon, and elastomer padding to ensure strength and longevity. Yakima designed their StreamLine Tower line to be sleek, strong and quiet, maximizing versatility and carrying strength while looking great on your vehicle's roof. Yakima backs their rack products with a limited lifetime warranty.
Three bar styles to choose from
Yakima SkyLine Towers are designed for use on Yakima's StreamLine aluminum JetStream Bars and steel CoreBars right out of the box. The SkyLine's BarBed Pitch Adjustment allows for 12 degrees of adjustment with StreamLine bars, giving you the ability to adjust the pitch of each crossbar to keep them level on vehicles with a curved roof. You can also use classic Yakima RoundBars by purchasing a StreamLine Roundbar Adapter Kit separately.
Locks available for full security
The SkyLine Towers Half Set can be locked to your vehicle by purchasing a Yakima 2 pack of SKS lock cores (sold separately). Locks prevent someone from removing the rack from your vehicle. This is especially important if you are carrying bikes or a cargo box as it prevents theft of your gear. We always recommend purchasing locks, as the SkyLine Tower uses a simple quick release function that allows removal of the rack in seconds if it is not locked.
