Purchased for a 2019 Tacoma trd offroad.
Absolutely love the rack system. We also attached a cargo basket up on the crossbars. Very useful, greatly increases our cargo capacity for camping trips.

The Yakima HD Crossbars are very light yet sturdy. With the proper adapters and mounts, this will make a nice cargo setup.

The bars work great, had to piecemeal the bars and Overhaul HD rack due to shortages. They give me plenty of room for two kayaks (Bonafide SS127 and Old Town Derigo 12).

These bars can support anything you need. For work they are great for ladders or lumber. For play, a raft and/or my Yakima box can be loaded on them too.

- Can The HD Crossbars for the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer Be Raised? The HD Bars # Y01159 for the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129 currently only have the one adapter included with the trailer for mounting. You may be able to have new mounts custom machined to clamp around the tube and raise the height for the crossbars. This would have to be a custom part as Yakima does not manufacture another mount at this time.
view full answer... - Yakima OverHaul HD for 2025 Nissan Frontier With Longer CrossbarsHey Joe! We don't have it as a single part number like # Y01151-5868 but I can definitely give you all of the parts to put it together. The next size up in crossbars are the 78". You will need the following: -Yakima OverHaul HD Adjustable Truck Bed Ladder Rack Uprights # Y01151 -Toyota/Nissan Utility Track Adapter Kit for Yakima OverHaul HD and OutPost HD Truck Racks # Y01168 -Yakima HD Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 78" Long - Qty 2 # Y01159 What are you using the ladder rack for?
view full answer... - Can You Use the Yakima HD Bar Adapter part # Y03541 to Add Yakima HD Bars to the RetraxPRO XR?Hi Daniel, The short answer is yes! You can use the Yakima HD Bar Adapters for Yakima Streamline Towers part # Y03541 to use your Yakima crossbars in a RetraxPRO XR tonneau cover! You will need a few parts to accomplish this though: HD Bar SL Adapter for Yakima Towers part # Y03541 SkyLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars part # Y53TR Landing Pad 1 for Yakima Control Towers part # Y00221 Yakima HD Crossbars- 60" Long # Y01157, 68" Long # Y01158, or 78" Long # Y01159 (you'll need to measure...
view full answer... - Will The Thule UpRide Roof Bike Rack TH599000Hi Allen! The Thule UpRide Roof Bike Rack - Wheel Mount - Clamp On or Channel Mount - Aluminum # TH599000 will definitely fit in the T-Slots of the Yakima HD Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 78" Long - Qty 2 # Y01159. The slots are fairly standard and the T-Bolts that come with the UpRide are also fairly standard. This is actually something we have test-fit, so you are good to go! What kind of bike will you be carrying?
view full answer... - Will Yakima SkyBox 16 Roof Cargo Box Fit Yakima HD CrossbarsThe Yakima SkyBox 16 Roof Cargo Box is compatible with bars measuring up to 1-11/16" tall x 3-1/2" wide. The Yakima HD Crossbars like part # Y01159 measure 1-1/2" tall x 3" wide so they will be a fit for this cargo box. I didn't see any instructions with the cargo box that are specific to these bars so you'll just want to use the general guidelines which I have attached below. Please note, the clamps don't need to fully close in order for the box to be sure.

- Can I Install A Cargo Box On The Yakima LowRider Kayak Trailer Y82QDHello Josh. Yes, you can install a cargo box on the crossbars of the Yakima LowRider Kayak Trailer # Y82QD. The LowRider crossbars are the Yakima HD Crossbars part # Y01159, which are 78" long, 3" wide and 1-1/2" tall. These will be compatible with virtually any rooftop cargo box that attaches to crossbars. You will just need to make sure the cargo box will work with a 36" crossbar spread, since this is the minimum crossbar spread for the LowRider trailer. Most cargo boxes from major brands...
view full answer... - Availability of Roof Rack That Fits 2 Old Town Sportsman Autopilot 120 Fishing KayaksHey Philip! It looks like the kayaks are 37" wide so 74" for both. The Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01159 are 78" long and can be installed using the # TimberLine Towers # Y33TR and HD Bar Adapter # Y03541. However, the specs show these weigh 152 lbs each, is that correct? The weight limit of the feet/towers is 220 lbs so if they are that heavy a roof rack won't be an option. Your vehicle roof capacity may not be high enough to hold them either. If the total weight of your kayaks is 304 lbs...
view full answer... - Recommended Kayak Carrier for the Yakima JawLow Kayak TrailerHey Blake, the bars on the Yakima LowRider # Y82QD are just the Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01159 so they are 3" wide. For a kayak carrier, the Yakima JawLow # Y04073 is an excellent choice that'll fit those bars and will let you haul up to 2 kayaks. These bars also do have t-slots, so you could go that route as well. What kind of kayaks are you hauling? Going anywhere fun? Feel free to let me know if there is something I can do for you!
view full answer... - Will Inno Tire Hold II Roof Bike Rack INA389 Fit On Yakima HD Crossbars?Hi Brian! The Inno Tire Hold II Roof Bike Rack - Wheel Mount - Clamp On - Aluminum # INA389 will fit bars that are up to 3-1/2" wide and 2" tall. The Yakima HD crossbars (like # Y01159) measure 3" wide and 1-1/2" tall, so you are good to go! What kind of bike are you going to be carrying?
view full answer... - Roof Rack Options For Carrying The Thule Hullavator On A 2022 Chevy TahoeHi Kristen! The Thule Hullavator requires anywhere from 4 to 8 inches of overhang past the tower to make sure it will not come in contact with your 2022 Chevy Tahoe. You didn't mention if you were going to running just one or one on each side, so that is definitely something to take into account. That said, these are going to be your two best options: Aero Bar Option: Yakima JetStream Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 70" Long - Qty 2 # Y00427 SightLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars - Flush...
view full answer... - Do the Yakima HD Crossbars Lock to Yakima Overhaul HD Ladder Racks?Hi BJ, Thanks for your question! The Yakima HD Crossbars, like # Y01159, do not lock directly to the Yakima OverHaul HD Ladder Rack, such as # Y01151-5855. Instead, the HD crossbars attach to the OverHaul uprights by using a threaded plate that slides into the crossbar's T-slot and secures to the elbow at the top of each upright. Once installed, the crossbars are mechanically fastened to the rack rather than secured with a lock. Unfortunately, that means that the removal of the HD crossbars...
view full answer... - T-Slot Nuts to Fit Yakima HD CrossbarsI recommend picking up the Aero Style Crossbar T-Slot Fit Kit # MPG8287 which comes with bolts, nuts, and washers that will fit in the Yakima HD Bar T-Slots like the 78" part # Y01159. If you're trying to find specific dimensions for your own hardware, the T-Slot measures 22mm wide and 8 mm tall and then the opening at the top measures 11mm wide (see attached photo).

- Replacement Top Channel Infill For Yakima HD 68" Crossbars The Replacement Top Channel Crossbar Infill for Yakima HD Style Crossbars # Y33KV is the Yakima 8881036 and the correct insert for your Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01158. The Replacement Top Infill # Y01166 is the Yakima part number 8001166 which fits both the HD bars and JetStream crossbars. The # Y01166 is 76" long to fit the longest JetStream while the # Y33KV is 74-13/16" long fitting up to the 78" HD Bars # Y01159.
view full answer... - Yakima HD Crossbar Rack For Retrax Pro XR Tonneau CoverYou'll need an adapter but yes, the Yakima HD crossbars will work with the Retrax Pro XR tonneau cover. What you can use is the following: - Yakima HD Crossbars - 60" Long # Y01157, 68" Long # Y01158, or 78" Long # Y01159 (you'll need to measure to get the correct length - Landing Pad 1 # Y00221 (you'll need to order Qty 2 of this part number) - SkyLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y53TR - HD Bar SL Adapter for Yakima BaseLine, SkyLine, TimberLine, and RidgeLine Towers # Y03541
view full answer... - Will The Yakima T-Bolts # Y8880184 or # 8860061 Fit Yakima HD Crossbars? The Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01159 have a 3/8" opening on the top of the bar which is 1/4" tall and 13/16" wide inside the slot opening. This will accept both the Replacement T-Bolt with Nut for Yakima Rack and Roll Trailers # Y8880184 and the Replacement T-Bolts for Yakima Universal Mount Crossbar Clamp # 8860061
view full answer... - Recommended Crossbar Size for Yakima Overhaul HD on 2019 Ram 2500You really could use either one of the 68" # Y01158 or 78" # Y01159 bars, but I have a feeling that the 78" bars are going to stick out a little bit too far, so I do recommend going with the 68" Yakima HD Bars # Y01158. Obviously having longer bars means more space, but the usable space outside of the bars really isn't all that beneficial since it's not going to be able to bear heavier loads. The only time I would recommend going with longer bars in this case is if you were using an awning...
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Add Yakima Rack to Diamondback SE Tonneau Cover on Ford Super DutyWe can get your Ford Super Duty set up with a Yakima rack for your Diamondback SE tonneau cover. The Q Towers are no longer made and aren't compatible with Yakima's latest racks, so you'll need a new set of towers for the system. Here is exactly what you'll need: - Yakima 72" HD Tracks for Diamondback Truck Covers # Y92AR - Yakima HD Crossbars - 78" Long # Y01159 - SkyLine Towers # Y53TR - HD Bar SL Adapter # Y03541 - Landing Pad 26 for Yakima SkyLine Towers # Y75ZR You'll need a...
view full answer... - Putting Stronger Crossbars on Sylvan Sport Go Easy TrailerThat is an interesting project you have there, and I called my friend in Yakima to discuss how it could fit. Since Sylvan Sport is not a brand we work with and can test on, we don't have the information to give confirmed fits. I can give my recommendation though based off my experience with kayak trailers. I am curious about how you can fit 4 bikes and two kayaks onto your bars. A close equivalent of the Go Easy Trailer is the Yakima EasyRider # Y08129. The EasyRider uses 78" HD Bars #...
view full answer... - Do Yakima Rooftop Cargo Boxes Fit on the Yakima OverHaul HD CrossbarsYes they do! The Yakima OverHaul HD Adjustable Truck Rack # Y01151-59 that you referenced utilizes the Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01159 which measure 78" long x 3" wide x 1-1/2" tall which means they are about 1/2" taller and 1/8" thinner than the Yakima JetStream crossbars. Yakima has confirmed that all of their rooftop cargo boxes, like the SkyBox 18 # Y07336 are compatible with the HD bars. I have attached a link to all of the Yakima rooftop cargo boxes that you can filter through. I...
view full answer... - Will the Thule PowerClcik Clamp Fit Around Yakima HD CrossbarsHey Joel, the Replacement PowerClick Clamp for Thule Force XT and Motion XT Cargo Boxes # 1401467300 that you're looking at will fit around the Yakima HD Bars # Y01159.
view full answer... - Is Yakima MegaWarrior Cargo Basket Compatible With Yakima HD CrossbarsYou can absolutely use Yakima HD crossbars with the Yakima MegaWarrior Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07080. The two are compatible, but you will need to use the clamps to install the MegaWarrior as there is not a way to mount this basket in the bars' channel. The only thing I do recommend adding to this basket, in order to protect your investment, is the Locking Brackets with SKS Cores # Y07064. As for the Yakima HD crossbars, they are available in a number of different sizes: 55 inches...
view full answer... - What Aftermarket Crossbars can Hold Two Thule Hullavators with Kayaks on a 2020 Subaru Outback?I think I found a good solution! The weight of the two Thule Hullavators # TH898 and two 38 pound kayaks would need a weight capacity on a rack system that could carry 154 pounds. It would also have to have much longer crossbars than your average since this takes up 36" of crossbars space. Crossbars that would accommodate this on your factory roof rack would be the 78" Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01159. These bars have a maximum capacity of 220 pounds. In order to attach these bars to your rails,...
view full answer... - How Long Are the Yakima HD Crossbars? The Yakima HD Crossbar # YA34FR measures 60" from end to end including the endcaps. Yakima does also make this bar in a large 68" version # Y01158 and an extra-large 78" version # Y01159 if you're interested as well. Additionally, the t-tracks run the entire length of the crossbar, is 13/16" wide, 1/4" tall, and has a 3/8" opening.
view full answer... - Does Thule Hullavator Fit Yakima HD Crossbars Using T-SlotsYes, you can absolutely mount your Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier # TH898 into the T-slot channels of the Yakima HD crossbars. The HD crossbars are available in the following sizes: - 55" Long: Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01156 - 60" Long: Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01157 - 68" Long: Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01158 - 78" Long: Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01159
