Could Two Yakima Jaylow Kayak Carriers Fit on 2012 Chevy Equinox Factory Crossbars
Published 12/28/2018
Question:
I asked the question could I install two sets on top of my 2012 Chevy equinox, the response was yes, I think that I didn’t ask my question correctly, So I will try again, Can I use two sets of Y04073 on my vehicle but have both sets in the 90 degree position, reason being when I place my two kayaks on my roof in the slanted position they both cross the center line of the roof top, so would it be safe to put both sets in the 90 degree position ? The problem is the dementions of my vibe slip jack 90 kayak. Thanks again

Helpful Expert Reply:
I checked with Yakima and the JayLow kayak rack part # Y04073 that you referenced is a confirmed fit for the factory crossbars of your 2012 Chevy Equinox. The carrier wouldn't take up too much room either on your crossbars so you'd pretty easily be able to fit two of these carriers on your factory crossbars.
