Will the SportRack Kayak Carrier # SR5511 Fit on Thule WingBars?
Question:
Do these fit on Thule wingbars? If so, is there any other hardware or adapter kit needed to make them work? How is the fit? Does it seem solid?

Yes, the SportRack Kayak Carrier # SR5511 will fit onto Thule WingBar Evo crossbars. As far as the installation, the kayak carrier does not require any adapter or additional hardware. The carrier fastens to the crossbars with clamp-on brackets. These brackets are secure for travel because they sit tightly on your crossbars with threaded tighteners. In fact, the attachments are so secure that the carrier has a maximum weight capacity of 75 pounds. I went ahead and attached a video that shows the brackets starting at timestamp 3:07.
If you need a complete roof rack system in addition to the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars, I would be happy to recommend the required parts if you provide the year/make/model of your vehicle.
