Expert Reply:
On the Thule AeroBlade crossbars the upper part of the T-slot is 1/2 inch wide and the lower part is 3/4 inches wide. T-bolt # 853-0782 could work. The threaded part is 2 inches long and has a diameter of 8 millimeters.
3-wing knob # 753-0776 is an M8 and is a potential candidate for this use. But none of these parts have been tested together so I cannot say how well the Thule parts will work with the Yakima parts so it is an -at-your-own-risk type of situation.
