Hey James, for the Yakima HD Overhaul rack the replacement bottom infill is the part #Y01166-LC and the top is part #Y01166. The bottom and top channels of the bars are the exact same dimensions and profile so they are interchangeable.

Since we don't currently offer the RSI Smartcap I don't have any real technical info on it, but since you say they have t-slots you could use a system like the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack for Thule and Yakima Tracks #Y01-140B-NT. This rack attaches…

Your internet site is very well organized and easy to use...My order was shipped very promptly and included everything I ordered...All in all this was a simple procedure for what can be a complicated order. I would use your company again or recommend you to others. Your selection was broad and your prices fair.
Built for solid connections, tow shackles link your rig to recovery ropes, winches, snatch straps, or trailer safety chains. Choose soft shackles for easier carry and use, or metal shackles for a very solid feel. Match the opening and pin size to your chains or tow points, and for bolt-on styles use a frame-mounted recovery point and torque hardware so the shackle pivots freely.
Bolt it to a frame-mounted tow or recovery point, not sheet metal or the bumper. Line up with reinforced holes or drill, seat the bracket flat, torque bolts, and check the shackle pivots without rubbing. Recheck torque after a few uses. If rubber parts are included, inspect them for wear with heavy use.
Yes, shackles make it easier to attach chains and ropes for towing or moving logs. Confirm the pin diameter and inside width fit your chain hooks, like needing an opening large enough for a 9/16" attachment. For trailers, pick a shackle with a capacity above your loaded weight and verify it fits your hitch loops.
Match the shackle mount to your receiver, whether 1-1/4" for ATV/UTV use or 2.5" for heavy trucks. Some receiver shackles let you run the pin horizontal or vertical to help reduce side loading. A standard hitch pin and clip that fits the accessory typically works even without a listed pin rating.
Soft shackles are easier to carry and use, and reduce hard metal in the system. They pair well with a recovery rope or extension straps. Expect the knot-through-loop to be snug after a pull; work it through to release. Look for a protective cover with the safe working load and use dampers to help manage energy in the line.
