The all new Yakima RailGrab Roof Rack System will amaze you with its versatile ability to fit any type of side rails (the two bars located on both sides of the roof that run parallel to each other from the front to back of the roof). Whether your vehicle has raised siderails, oversized, or flush rails, it doesn’t matter anymore, because the Yakima RailGrab roof rack is designed to fit them all! Yakima Racks engineered the Rail Grab Towers to eliminate the hassle of figuring out which multi-purpose roof rack system was compatible with your specific vehicle's style of factory siderails. No worries now, simply slap on the Yakima 8000138 RailGrab Towers and crossbars to your side rails. Forget about having to figure out if the Yakima Lowrider Towers, Lowrider MAX Towers or EZ Rider Towers are required for your automobile. The Rail Grab Towers handle all applications these previous Yakima factory rail rack systems were designed for.
Now you can just go with the RailGrab and get down to the business of racking up your ride. With two sets — large and small — of provided “claws”, this baby will grab onto any kind of factory rails with an iron grip. Aside from its versatility, the RailGrab keeps the crossbars tight against the rails providing a sleek, integrated look. It installs in seconds with a turn of the included Allen wrench and even has a hidden, integrated pocket in the Tower itself to store the wrench when you’re done! Conveniently universal, this is also the best choice if you plan on ever switching your roof rack system between different vehicles. With patented technology, the RailGrab will grab onto your raised, oversized, or flush rails and refuse to let go. We highly recommend a four pack of Yakima Locks (not included; see accessory add-ons below) to lock the rack to vehicle.
The Yakima 8000138 RailGrab complete roof rack system includes all 2 components that are necessary for installing a general-purpose base rack, providing the platform that will allow you to then connect roof mount gear carriers that carry your gear and equipment:
- Four (4) Yakima 0138 RailGrab Towers.
- Two (2) Yakima Cross Bars (bar end caps included).
Easy-to-follow Yakima Rail Grab installation instructions manual included. Can be locked to the vehicle using a 4-pack of Yakima Racks SKS Lock Cores (not included; see accessory add-ons below). Broadest range of fit — compatible with virtually all side rails from raised to oversized to flush. Lower profile provides sleek, integrated look. Included claws grab hold of siderails with an iron grip. System installs in seconds with a simple adjustment. No additional tools needed. Yakima RailGrab system can be installed or removed without disassembling the rack. Can easily transfer to other vehicles with side factory rack side rails too. Yakima Racks Lifetime Warranty!

RailGrab is a Real Beauty
this Yakima 0138 RailGrab Towers review by Jefford Scott
I still can't believe how easy it was to install this on my Toyota Sienna siderails. All I had to do was connect the Claws to the RailGrab Towers and then put them on the Sienna factory rails and tighten the knob on each Claw then use the allen wrench to do the final tightening of the Towers. I'm really happy with the setup. I use it to carry a couple of bikes and a kayak sometimes. Very sturdy and absolutely no movement whatsoever as of writing this. Hats off to Yakima Racks for dreaming up this beauty.
Allows Me to Use One RoofRack on 2 Cars
this Yakima 0138 RailGrab Towers review by Kayak4Life
This is exactly what I needed to be able to use one roofrack on two cars. I have an older model Subaru Forester with flush siderails and a new edition Subaru Outback with regular raised factory rails. The RailGrab Towers are perfect for quickly switching the car rack between both cars. It takes a little time to adjust and tighten the Towers each time I switch it out but the savings in not having to buy 2 systems is worth it to me.
I am Very Pleased!
this Yakima 0138 RailGrab Towers review by Mike in Maryland
I just purchased Yakima Rail Grabs, Fork Lift, Wheel Fork, and several components. The entire experience from beginning to end was excellent. ORS Racks Direct customer service was top notch (I had even e-mailed with a question and received a call with the answer within the hour - amazing!). Everything was shipped immediately and showed up as requested. I’m very pleased - this is my first purchase through these guys and certainly will not be the last.

S.Ramsey says - Just wanted to follow up after receiving my Yakima RailGrab order... I placed my order over the phone and the ORS Racks Direct rep was professional, helpful, and courteous as he assisted me in the decision of which rack to purchase. My order was shipped the day I placed it, and the product arrived in perfect shape. This is exactly what I look for when doing business with a vendor, and ORS Racks Direct is a company that I will recommend online, to friends and to my family. It should go without saying that they will be my rack source.
BudNJ says - I purchased this car rack from ORS Racks Direct and I incorrectly specified the wrong bar length and they reached out to me to see if I really want what I ordered or get the correct length for my car. I'm pleased w/ my purchase and I'd definitely do it again.

Demonstration movie of the Yakima Racks 0138 RailGrab Tower system showing how this roofrack system is universally compatible with virtually all styles of factory rails - flush siderails, raised siderails and fat oversized side rails included. Installs ultra-fast by simply adjusting the included claws to firmly grab hold of the siderails for an iron grip. Yakima RailGrab Towers offer a nice sleek and integrated look to complement any vehicle. Towers sit low for excellent aerodynamics and fuel efficiency. A 4 pack of Yakima Locks is recommended (sold separately) to lock the rack to the car. Once installed, any Yakima Racks gear carriers, as well as virtually all other car rack manufacturers' gear carriers, will attach directly to the round Yakima cross bars.
