Roof Rack Recommendation for a 2008 Palomino Yearling Tent Trailer  

Updated 04/14/2015 | Published 04/12/2015

Question:

Hello, I cant really confirm if the edges are rounded as there is a soft material protecting the outside edges. Can you let me know if the SR1020 is compatible with the above tent trailer. If this system can work, can you: 1 Offer advice on best place to put rack system as we want this for our bikes, and have the flexibility to add on a canoe and kayaks? I know we have the bars close for bikes, but not sure for a large canoe est/ up to 18 feet. 2 I assume the bars are compatible with Thule/Yakima systems? Thanks

Since the outside edge of the roof of your camper has what looks like a trim piece around it I would recommend the Swagman Roamer LT Roof Rack # S80510 that would attach to the top of the pop-up and wouldn't need to go over the edge at all. It can be installed to the inside of the trim piece and would work well for you.

I would recommend you go with a spread between the bars of around 30 inches as that is what Swagman recommends as the minimum to use and would work well with bike racks and canoe carriers.

The dimensions of the bars are very similar to the Thule square bars so they should work well with Thule and Yakima accessories.
