VERY easy installation on Rhino Rack aero bar roof rack, and VERY easy kayak loading!



by:

Works great and very sturdy no issues. I have it on a seinna van...i also bought a suction cup roller for the back window. Left it on all winterin MA. No issues in car wash either



by:

This combo makes loading and unloading a quick and easy one man job.



by:

Delivery was quick, product exactly as expected.



by:

This roller and pad setup allowed me to get a 68 lb kayak on and off my car by myself. Could not do that with the Jlow racksI



by:

Looks good. Fits good. My truck is tall. I am small. The rear roller rack makes loading the kayaks easy enough. I have not traveled with them yet.



by:

Fast shipping and easy installation



by:

I returned this item as it didn't work for my particular kayak. Gave a 3 star since I didn't use. Quality of product was good when I received it.



by:

Good carrier set! It's easy to load and holds the boat securely, even our big 14 foot tandem ocean kayak that weighs 75 pounds. The cinch straps are easy to handle and the clips for the loose end of the strap holds it nicely. For anyone trying to decide whether to get the rollers, I would say they do make a modest difference in the ease of unloading. Two sets of saddles would also do the job.

My only complaints are:
1) the bow and stern tie straps don't come with clips to hold the loose end of the strap. I use a binder clip, but people poke fun at me for it.
2) It seems like for this price locks should be included....

Keep in mind this rack takes up most of the space on an SUV roof, so if you need to carry two boats at once, consider J-racks instead.



by:

Works great



by:

Just got these in the mail. They fit the stock rack on my 02 Subaru outback great and feel extremely durable. I have a very wide and heavy Jackson kayak Big Rig and I feel these will hold it great. Prior to these I trailered it or struggled to get it on the roof. Just roll it up there and secure it. This was the best product for me as all the other racks are so dang light and flimsy. Furthermore this was the best price I could find and I'm lazy and don't want to order the products separate. One and done and you save $ Great buy!



by:

i use with yakima big catch on top of cargo van
rollers work great to help get my 12 foot top water on the roof alone.
the other part works great to hold the front of kayak in place.



by:

The rollers with the saddles work perfectly for loading and unloading the kayaks. My only complaint is that the screw clamps either vibrate loose or do not grip the rack well. They have fallen off a couple of times, luckily, they fell into the bed of my truck.



by:

This was my second large order from Etrailer.com and my wife I are VERY pleased! Our first order was a Curt 5th wheel hitch which performed as advertised - so easy to use.
Now we haul our 5th wheel camper and that takes up my entire full sized F250 truck bed which in turn messed up hauling the kayaks back there. I was leaning toward rigging something up on the back of the camper, saw lots of posts on how to many looked very sketchy. Rather than risk dumping our two $$$ fishing kayaks onto the highway.... somewhere..... we bought this GREAT Yakima roof rack system for the TOP of my truck cab. You see, it made me uneasy that I wouldn't be able to keep an eye on our boats if strapped to the back AND we read about many horror stories not limited to the rear bumper falling off from fatigue. Yakima Install; I'm a General Contractor and fancy myself a pretty handy guy so mounting the towers, the rack bars, and all of the accessories onto those took a total three hours. [on-line] videos very useful and follow the easy to read instructions that come with each part and you'll have NO trouble. I have to add, etrailer said it would take one week but I received the complete order within four days. Thank you etrailer for making the ordering through delivery experience so very streamlined!



by:

I bought these for hauling my wife's kayaks on Yakima's Overhaul rack system. Super easy to use and remove when we're not hauling the kayaks around. Highly recommend.



by:

This worked GREAT on my 2015 Outback with factory installed roof racks. Right out of the box I installed the SKS lock cores (purchased separately) clamped them on, locked them down, added my kayak and I was off for a day on the river. Just a matter of minutes to install everything. Highly recommend.



by:

I was so impressed with the speed in which my order was fulfilled! The right products, carefully packaged, and promptly delivered. Couldn't be happier with the service I received!



by:

First of all, 5 stars to etrailer as usual. They are amazing. I purchased a Yakima kayak rack, actually 2 and have installed them both on the Jeep roof. Both fit great. Great product that fit my situation. I have bought Yakima products in the past, always great fit form and function. I highly recommend both etrailer and Yakima products.



by:

These look amazing and look forward to loading my kayak easily on them. Super easy to install and have a round fit for the Yakima round crossbar. LOVE their products!



by:

Purchased a Yakima kayak carrier with rollers. Yakima produces a quality product, but it is a bit pricey.



by:

Easy to set up. Kayaks fit well on these carriers. I will be observing durability.



by:

Appearance is as described on the website, fits the 2007 Gmc envoy factory cross bars. Planning to load Hoodoo 120p kayak this weekend to test for fit and function.



by:

Product was as described. Easy rolling it onto the roof of my Subaru. Great customer service. Like that you include all the necessary straps too. Thank you!



by:

Kit comes as advertised, easy to set up and use



by:

High quality as expected from Yakima.

  • Recommended Kayak Carrier for a TruXedo Elevate Ladder Rack System on a 2022 Chevrolet Colorado
    For your 2022 Chevrolet Colorado with the TruXedo Elevate Truck Bed Rack System # TX26NV, I recommend going with the Yakima Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs - Saddle Style w/ Rollers # Y04083-04082. This mounting kit will simply clamp around the crossbars on your TruXedo Elevate system and will allow you to transport 1 kayak that weights a maximum of 80-lbs. This kit also includes 2 load straps with padded cam buckles to secure your kayak, 2 flexible saddles for maximum support, and 2 padded...

  • Saddle Style Kayak Carrier That Fits 3" x 1-1/2" Crossbar
    Hey Thomas, The Yakima carrier you referenced will not fit a 3" x 1-1/2" crossbar, though there is a saddle style that will. You'll have to use longer bolts sold separately, but if that's okay what you can use is the following: - Rhino-Rack Nautic Roof Kayak Carrier # RR571 - Heavy-Duty Crossbar Adapter Kit # HD-FK1

  • Do Yakima Kayak Carriers Fit Right-On Ruff Sport Trailers for Heavy Fishing Kayak
    I took a look at the website for the Right-On Ruff trailers and it specified that Yakima accessories will fit the crossbars of the Right-On Ruff Sport trailers. We do have a carrier that will work for you, although the Yakima Mako has been discontinued for some time, and it's replacement, the Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs - Saddle Style with Rollers # Y04083-04082, only has an 80 lb capacity. That's not enough for your Jakckson Kayak 360 Angler, which, based on my research weighs...

  • Yakima Outdoorsman Ladder Rack and Kayak Carrier for a 2017 Ford F-250
    The Yakima Outdoorsman 300 Ladder Rack for full size trucks like your 2017 Ford F-250 is actually going to be # Y01137-Y00411. The one you asked about is for compact trucks. The Outdoorsman is compatible with all current Yakima roof kayak carriers because the bars are the same size as the roof rack bars. The most popular Yakima option is the JayLow, # Y04073. But you may want to consider a rear loading option with rollers such as # Y04083-04082 since trucks are so tall. I have linked videos...

    Thanks for reaching out to verify, Frank! Yes, those parts (listed below) will fit great together and on your 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour with the naked roof. Inno Roof Rack - Aero Crossbars # INXB130-138 - Through Feet # INXS250 - Fit Kit # INK587 The Yakima Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # Y04083-04082 is designed to clamp around this very style of crossbar to everything will fit very neatly together!

  • Roof Rack and Rear Loading Kayak Carrier Recommendation for a 2021 Honda CR-V
    For your application I recommend going with a Yakima setup, both for the roof rack and for the kayak carrier. To install a Yakima roof rack on your 2021 Honda CR-V you need the following: 50" JetStream Crossbars - Black # Y00425 SkyLine Towers - # Y53TR Landing Pad 19 - # Y00245 Lock Core Kit - # Y07204 (optional) The Rhino-Rack Nautic 581 Rear Loading Kayak Carrier # RR581 will fit the channels of the Yakima system just fine and it's a good rear-loading kayak carrier, I just really like...

  • Can Yakima ShowDown Kayak Carrier Be Used on a 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour
    Hey Frank, thanks for reaching out again! The Yakima ShowDown # Y04081 needs the crossbars to extend at least 3-1/2" out past the towers for proper fitment, and Yakima states not to use these with roof racks that clamp to a roof so you wouldn't be able to use the ShowDown with the naked roof on your 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour. If you're wanting some help loading the kayak up to the Yakima Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # Y04083-04082 you previously asked about, I recommend checking out...

  • Can Swagman Exo Aero Rooftop Kayak Carrier Haul Fishing Kayak
    Yes, the Swagman Exo Aero Rooftop Kayak Carrier System with Tie-Downs # S65145 is compatible with a 36 inch wide fishing kayak, but there are also better options for this style of kayak. Instead of the single saddle of the Exo Aero I highly recommend using one with four separate saddles that you can position at the width of your choosing for optimal security. A budget-friendly but solid option is the Rola Hull-Hauler Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs - Saddle Style - Clamp On # 599131. This...

  • Can 2 Yakima ShowDown Carriers be Used on a 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    To use the Yakima ShowDown # Y04081 you would need a roof rack where the crossbars extend past the legs at least 3-1/2". From what I can tell, the Mopar roof rack for your 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee has crossbars that end where the legs fit. I do have a solution for you to carry your kayaks but when I reached out to my contact at Yakima she said you would need to at least use their 70" crossbar and that 2 of the ShowDown carriers will be at least 80" wide when placed side by side. Because...

  • Kayak Carrier Recommendation for a Perception Kayak-Rambler Double Seat 78 lb Kayak
    Since your Perception Kayak-Rambler is a larger kayak I recommend using the Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # Y04083-04082. This combines the DeckHand and HandRoll carriers so that you get the ease of loading with the rollers but the stability that saddles offer, plus it has a weight capacity of 80 lbs which is perfect for your setup. This kit also comes with everything you need to secure your kayak, although if you aren't able to find good anchor points on your vehicle you can use...

  • Are There Replacement Straps for Yakima Mako Kayak Carrier
    I do have an option for you but I checked with Yakima and the replacement Mako Saddle straps are no longer available. Unfortunately, if yours are broken or missing then this means you'll have to replace the carrier. I recommend the Yakima Kayak Roof Rack part # Y04083-04082 which is what replaced the Yakima Mako.

  • Best Kayak Carrier for a SylvanSport Go Easy Trailer
    Since you are pulling your Kayaks off of a trailer and not a roof rack I would suggest going with a saddle style mount over the J-style. The design of the saddles gives them a bigger surface to put the kayak on, meaning they offer an additional layer of security compared to the J-style types. Same with V-style carriers like the Malone MegaWing item # MPG207 you referenced. The saddle style is a better option. I recommend the Yakima BigCatch Kayak Carrier item # Y04091 over the Rhino-Rack...

  • Could Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer Carry Kayaks and Bikes
    The Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129 has a 500 lb capacity and HD load bars that are 78 inches long so it would easily carry the weight of your 80 lb boat, kayaks, and mountain bikes. One great feature is that you could put the boat on the bottom level and the other items you plan to carry on the top level or vice versa as needed. I attached a review video for you to check out as well.

  • Will the Yakima HandRoll Work to Transport a 57-Pound Kayak on My 2013 Mini Countryman?
    I have a kayak carrier solution for you. The Yakima HandRoll # Y04082 only comes with the roller portion of the setup. With this 1/2 system, are is no front supports that allow you to mount the kayak. In order to have the full setup, you need the # Y04083-04082 that include the saddles. In order to determine if this system will clamp around your factory crossbars on your 2013 Mini Countryman, I recommend measuring your crossbars. If the height and width of your crossbars do not exceed...

  • Can Thule Hullavator Kayak Carrier and Square Bar Roof Rack Work on 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan
    I spoke with my contact at Thule and he stated that the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier and Lift Assist # TH898 referenced in your question is not compatible with the 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan. This is simply because the weight capacity of the Grand Caravan along with a roof rack is not sufficient to support the Hullavator. I instead recommend looking at the Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # Y04083-04082. This system is a bit different than the Hullavator but it does also offer some...

  • Saddle-Style Watersport Carrier to Fit Prinsu Rack
    The Prinsu racks look pretty sweet but the 1" x 2" crossbars make it difficult to get product to fit. The Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # Y04083-04082 won't fit due to the larger bars but it looks like you have T-Slots in the crossbars so you can use the Thule DockGlide Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # TH896 instead which comes with hardware to clamp around standard crossbars as well as T-Bolts that will fit the T-Slots on your Prinsu.

  • Is Anything Else Needed with the HandRoll Kayak Carrier on a 2019 Subaru Outback Wagon
    The HandRoll Carrier # Y04082 that you referenced is actually just the part of the carrier that has the wheels. To complete the carrier you also need some saddles like the DeckHand # Y04083. This combination is available for your 2019 Subaru Outback Wagon in the kit # Y04083-04082 and is compatible with round, square, or aero-style crossbars. To add locks to either setup you need the 4 lock core set # Y07204.

    The Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # Y04083-04082 that you referenced is a fit for the factory crossbars of your 2019 Subaru Outback. Two of these racks would easily fit but it might be challenging to get the two kayaks next to each other since your bars are not super long. Another solution that would work great is the Thule Compass part # TH890000 which can easily fit two 29 inch kayaks and would also fit well on your Subaru bars. Due to it's design it wouldn't be challenging to fit...

    I have a couple different options for you. You are correct that you are not going to be able to get 2 kayaks on the roof of your 2022 Kia Telluride with the Thule Hullavator # TH898 because of space and weight. And honestly you will probably have a difficult time getting 1 kayak on a Hullavator and one on a different style of carrier. The Yakima Kayak Carrier # Y04083-04082 you mentioned would also be difficult because these style of carriers have the kayak lay flat and that takes up a...

  • Can Yakima Kayak Carrier Work With TracRac Crossbar
    The size of the TracRac crossbars will not let you install the Yakima Kayak Carrier # Y04083-04082. The only option is to use Thule Surf Pad # TH845000. You will also want some tie-downs to secure the bow and stern of the kayak. I also recommend bow and stern tie-downs like the Thule Quick Draw Tie-Down Ropes # TH855XT.

    I checked with Yakima and the Deckhand and BowDown part # Y04083-04082 that you referenced is a confirmed fit for the factory crossbars of your 2016 Subaru Outback Wagon. You would not need to buy an additional roof rack as these would attach directly. If you bought the Deckhand and the BowDown pieces separately there would be no difference from ordering this kit as it's the same components just kitted together differently. Whether or not you could fit two of these on your bars will...

  • Is Yakima Kayak Carrier Compatible With Fishing Kayak With Scupper Holes
    Yes, you can use the Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs - Saddle Style with Rollers # Y04083-04082 with your Jackson fishing kayak with scupper holes. Those holes will not interfere with the mounting that this carrier provides. The only thing to keep in mind is that this carrier has an 80 lb weight capacity and quite a few fishing kayaks are heavier than that, including some of the Jackson fishing kayaks I saw. If it was you'd need a different carrier, the Yakima BigCatch Kayak Carrier...

  • Carrying a FeelFree Lure 13.5 Fishing Kayak on the Roof of a 2016 GMC Acadia
    I have a solution for you, but the Yakima DeckHand and HandRoll kit, part # Y04083-04082 are only rated to carry 80 pound kayaks. This limit is because of the spring-loading used in the saddles and rollers. Since it seems like you want to stick with a hull down load, which makes a lot of sense considering that my research shows the Feelfree Lure 13.5 weighs about 95 pounds, I'd stick to saddle style racks. Specifically, the Lockrack Adjustable XL, part # LR54FR is one of the better...

    From what I could find it looks like your MotorFansClub Roof Rack Rail Cross Bars are a pretty standard size so the Yakima HandRoll Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # Y04082 should fit just fine. These were designed about the Yakima JetStream crossbars which measure 3-1/8" wide x 1" tall so if your crossbars are similar then you should be fine. If not, just let me know what they measure and I can do some digging to see if they will fit. Please be mindful that the kit you referenced is only...
