Roof rack arrived dented and scratched which complicated the installation because I had to hammer out dents to get the pipes to fit. Apart from that, the paint/coating scratches off fairly easily and the installation design is pretty awful. Instead of threading the pipe to accept screws they have this complicated plastic gasket mechanism which takes forever to align. I expected more from Yakima and for the price. Quick delivery from etrailer and good fit overall-- just need to wait and see about rust.1313806
I am sorry to see that your cargo carrier has received some scratches on it. Paint chips do tend to happen and when it does, we recommend using a Rust-oleum type paint to cover up any scratches and prevent corrosion in the future during use. I have given your information over to our customer service department for them to help you further. I have a link below for your reference.
Initial quality was excellent and assembly a snap. Finding a roof basket that wouldn't look like a tiny hat on a Jeep Commander was difficult, but the MegaWarrior is perfect! Assembly and mounting took less than an hour and it looks great. Now it just needs to be outfitted with a set of off-road lights. ;-)503041
Quality materials and construction. Assembly and installation was a breeze. I highly recommend this product to others. Would buy again.1101287

Wow !!!! Excellent service and very fast shipping. I bought the Yakima Megawarrior cargo basket with the Thule Aeroblade roof rack and the Carpod walled folding cargo basket. I love the way these parts fit as well as the cargo carrying capacity. I really can’t say enough about trailer customer service and shipping they really do place value in their customers. Would highly recommend using this company for your part needs !!! 529678
Product was exactly what you would expect from a reputable company such as Yakima. Fit an finish was spot on. I was happy to go with the megawarrior instead of the loadwarrior seeing as of how well the megawarrior flows with my 4Runner body lines.557141
I originally ordered the Curt basket, which is cheaper. But it turns out it wouldn't fit on my Xterra's factory bars (even though the Curt website shows it on an Xterra, unfastened!)
Also the Curt instructions say their basket is not meant for permanent installation -- I guess it's like a clamshell you put on for a trip and take off after. Not what I wanted.
This Yakima fits the wide, oval Xterra factory bars -- just barely, but it's secure. I like that because I was trying to minimize height.
I installed it myself; just lifted it over my head and walked it on, no problem.
It's big, especially with the extension, but I figured as long as I'm putting one on, I might as well make it as useful as possible. Cost about the same, on sale, as the smaller LoadWarrior.
I could mount my old bike racks on it, as shown. (I have a trailer so a rear mount doesn't work.) But after I knocked a bike off going through the drive-thru at Burger King I decided I'm just going to lay the bikes flat and strap them down. Until they invent bike radar.
Etrailer service was excellent, as usual.542040

The package was a little roughed up when it arrived. When I opened it, I found that the extension section for my Yakima MegaWarrior XL basket was a little bent. I was concerned, but everything seemed to fit together okay with a little elbow grease, so I'll just chalk it up to ordering by mail. I would not be surprised if the damage occurred during shipping rather than on the etrailer end. I was also missing one little screw/washer combination for the installation. I contacted etrailer and they have promised to send me some replacement hardware, so that's fine too (I've got an equivalent sized screw in there now, but it's galvanized rather than black, as the rest of them are, so I will replace as soon as the kit gets here.) Overall I'm very pleased with my rack. I think it looks great, and I'm going to use it soon on a road trip to Colorado. My plan is to put all my luggage up top so I can have some space for my dog in back of my SUV. The folks at etrailer have been responsive and helpful, so I'm pleased with them too and happy to submit this review. (Note: At one point I was a little exasperated with the slow response time from etrailer; however, I later discovered that I HAD received a response, only it was trapped in my email program's spam filter. Note to self: check spam filter!)1025155

Only had this on a few day, but have found many uses...love the rack and so far so good!510237
Yakima racks are great! My only complaint has been with the limited amount of accessories for Overlanding. 726039

They had the rack I needed, in stock, and at a great price. Shipping was free, quick, and easy to track. Item arrived well packaged and undamaged. So what's not to like?398492

The rack is fine, no problems. But then again its only a year old. Had one on my Jeep for 14 years now, all I do is give it a fresh coat of Rustoleum every few years...

I have used these people now twice. I absolutely love their customer service! I love how easy their website is and the helpful videos they have with them. This is so rare to have a company put so much information that is easily accessible out there for customers to make good decisions and informative decisions on what they're purchasing.
If you haven't done business with these people yet, do it! You won't be sorry!289592

Review from a similar MegaWarrior in Roof Basket
The MegaWarrior is a great Roof Rack. The only thing I didn’t like was the fit to the roof rails. My rails that I purchased from you are shaped like aircraft wings and the basket clamps seem to be designed for round rails. However I was able to complete the attachment and the rack remained secure for a 2,000 mile trip.1129399
I spoke with my contact at Yakima who said that the MegaWarrior # Y07080 is what you will want to use on your 2014 Honda Pilot. This is 52" long x 48" wide x 6-1/2" tall and will fit your factory crossbars as long as the spread is between 30" - 38". This basket comes with an adapter bar that will allow you to mount your PowderHound ski/snowboard carrier on it!
We do have the MegaWarrier with the Extension # Y07080-82 but it measures 74" long x 48" wide x 6-1/2" tall and fits a crossbar... view full answer...
I checked with Yakima and their Megawarrior part # Y07080 and MegaWarrior Extra Large part # Y07080-82 are both listed as a fit for your 2013 Toyota Sienna with factory crossbars.
Either would be an excellent option that we would recommend highly. These racks are nice too since they come with crossbars that mount to the rails of the basket. view full answer...
The Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07080 will work with a crossbar spread between 30 and 38 inches. The Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket and Extension # Y07080-82 will work with a crossbar spread between 36 inches and 60 inches. Based on the dimensions you gave, it sounds like the crossbars will allow you to use either system in theory. It sounds like the mounting blocks must work on one bar but the basket has a bar that fits directly over... view full answer...
When looking for a roof cargo basket for your 2002 Ford Excursion you simply need to measure the distance between the center of your front crossbar to the center of your rear crossbar. Cargo baskets typically have a crossbar spread range that they are compatible with.
If you are looking for a great basket that will cover a large portion of your roof then the Yakima MegaWarrior # Y07080-82 is hard to beat. It measures 74" long x 48" wide x 6-1/2" tall and is compatible with crossbar spreads... view full answer...
The Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket part # Y07080-82 has a shipping weight of 58 lbs. You can then subtract 1-2 lbs for shipping material therefore the actual weight of the basket will likely be around 56 lbs. Please keep in mind that you will also need to determine the vehicle's roof capacity in addition to the roof racks capacity as the lower of the two will be your limiting factor. view full answer...
Yes, the Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket and Extension # Y07080-82 will fit the new Yakima CoreBar and JetStream crossbars. This basket is designed to fit a crossbar spread (center to center spacing from one bar to the other) of 36 to 60 inches. If you can tell me the year, make, and model of the vehicle I can check for certain if this basket is a fit for your vehicle. view full answer...
I spoke with my contact at Yakima and she informed me that this Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket with Extension # Y07080-82 has internal dimensions of 68 inches in length and 47 in width.
I attached installation instructions for this product for you to check out also. view full answer...
I spoke with my contact at Yakima and he stated that on the MegaWarrior, # Y07080-82, most of the basket is made up of 1 inch diameter tubing. The larger pieces are 1-1/8 inches in diameter. I have included a link to the installation details for the basket for you. view full answer...
I spoke to my contact at Yakima and found that the mounting feet of the Yakima Megawarrior Cargo Basket with Extension, # Y07080-82, will fit around the factory roof rack crossbars of your 2010 Chevrolet Traverse, but we will just want to make sure the crossbar spread will fit.
The Yakima MegaWarrior requires a crossbar spread of at least 36 inches when used with the extension. The crossbar spread is the distance between the center of the front crossbar and the center of the rear crossbar.... view full answer...
I checked with Yakima and the LoadWarrior cargo basket part # Y07080-82 that you referenced is a confirmed fit directly to the crossbars of your 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser and would not require any adapters. view full answer...
The Yakima MegaWarrior and extension # Y07080-82 will fit the factory crossbars on your 2014 Subaru Outback. It would be a good idea to compare the length of the basket relative to the vehicle to determine if there would be any excessive overhang, front or back. When assembled the overall length is 74 inches long; over 6 feet in length.
I have linked the instructions and a video (of the regular length MegaWarrior) for you to view. view full answer...
It sounds like you have adjustable cross bars on your 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe. The optimal cross bar setup on average is 10" back from the windshield because that is where the roof supports begin. Besides that measurement, the Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket part # Y07080-82 has a minimum cross bar spread from the center of the first bar to the center of the rear bar of 36". As long as your cross bar spread is between 36" and 60" there is not a spot that is considered better. view full answer...
The widest crossbar spread the Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07080-82 that you referenced can fit is 60 inches. Since you said you have a middle crossbar between the two you mentioned being 69 inches apart this should be able to attach to either the front two or the rear two bars. view full answer...
The Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket - Steel - 74" Long x 48" Wide, part # Y07080-82, will fit your factory roof rack, but it may be to long if you want to access your rear hatch while carrying this cargo basket. If you want to access the hatch of your vehicle while carrying the MegaWarrior you can remove the MegaWarrior extension. Doing this will reduce its length to 52".
I have included a product description link and a video review link below. view full answer...
Yes, the Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07080-82 will fit your 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan with the factory roof rack system installed. It looks like your roof rack has a weight capacity of 150 lbs and this rack weighs in at 52 lbs so you'll be left with 98 lbs of cargo carrying weight capacity.

As long as the distance between the crossbars of your 2016 GMC Yukon XL is between 36 and 60 inches the Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07080-82 will fit and work great. It comes with all needed hardware to install and does not require you to add an additional crossbar or any other hardware. view full answer...
In order to determine which Yakima MegaWarrior Cargo Basket would work the best for your Malone Microsport Kayak and Bike trailer you are going to need to measure the distance between the crossbars.
The # Y07080-82 that you referenced is designed to fit spreads of between 36 and 60 inches, the # Y07080 fits 30-38 inch spreads and the # Y07070 fits 24-32 inch spreads. view full answer...
Yes. The Yakima MegaWarrior Extra Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket - Steel - 74" Long x 48" # Y07080-82 includes both the Yakima MegaWarrior Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket - Steel - 52" Long x 39" Wide # Y07080 and the extension piece # Y07082. view full answer...
The Yakima MegaWarrior with Extension part # Y07080-82 weighs 58 lbs and the LoadWarrior with extension part # Y07070-74 weighs 46 lbs.
The location of the mounting hardware on either basket will allow you to open the rear hatch without any issue.
For me I would go with the lighter LoadWarrior since lifting a heavy basket on to the top of a vehicle will be a chore. I attached a review video for this basket on the roof of a similar 2017 Outback as yours. view full answer...
I reached out to Yakima, and they confirmed that the Yakima MegaWarrior, part # Y07080-82 will fit onto your TracRac bars.
If you're concerned about the security of the rack itself, you can pick up locking mounting brackets as part # Y07064. These get installed in opposite corners to help secure the rack to the crossbars and are compatible with the TracRac bars as well. view full answer...
The only way you are going to be able to carry bikes with a crossbars spread of 60 inches is if you go with a Yakima MegaWarrior cargo basket part # Y07080-82 which can fit spreads of up to 60 inches.
This basket comes with a crossbar in the middle of it that you can use to mount a bike rack to it like the Yakima FrontLoader # Y02103.
I have linked both parts to this page for your convenience. You can also view product demonstration videos for the products mentioned by using the provided... view full answer...
The fenders of the Rack and Roll trailers like the part # Y08107 would interfere with a cargo basket from mounting directly to the channels of the trailer.
For a large cargo basket that would fit the crossbars of the Rack and Roll trailers the Yakima MegaWarrior XL part # Y07080-82 would be your best option. This basket measures 74" long x 48" wide x 6-1/2" tall. view full answer...
There's no reason you couldn't install two extension on a MegaWarrior roof basket. You would want the extension piece part # Y07082 plus the # Y07080-82 and you would get the carrier plus an additional extension piece. view full answer...
The mounting bracket included with the Yakima MegaWarrior, part # Y07080-82 can be moved so they line up with the crossbars on your Outback.
The only requirement is that the minimum crossbar spread should be 36 inches and the maximum should be 60 inches. The problem with the added extension is just what you are saying. It may inhibit being able to fully open the hatchback. You may be able to shift the basket forward to allow the hatch to open.
