Can Yakima SweetRoll Kayak Carrier Mount Outside Roof Rack Towers
Updated 07/31/2020 | Published 07/29/2020
Question:
I want to use a Sweet Roll rack to carry a kayak along side a cargo box on my Yakima rack. To fit, I need to put one Sweet Roll saddle on each crossbar to the outside of the tower. Is that an ok configuration? Similarly, I believe I need one side of the box to the outside of the tower on the other side. Everything fits within the length of the cross bars.

Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes, it is fine to mount one side of the Yakima SweetRoll Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # Y04074 to the outside of the roof rack towers or feet.
So long as the combined weight of the carrier, cargo box, kayak, and cargo is within the capacity of your roof rack and roof you will be fine with this set up.
I have added a link to a video review as well of the Yakima SweetRoll Kayak Carrier # Y04074.
