Expert Reply:

Yes, you can attach a j-style kayak carrier like the Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier part # Y04073 directly to any of the Yakima LoadWarrior like part # Y07070 or Yakima MegaWarrior part # Y07080 roof rack cargo baskets on your 2018 Subaru Outback. If you like you can add the Replacement Movable Bar part # Y8870046 for the MegaWarriors or part # 8870042 for the LoadWarriors but otherwise you can just use the front and rear bar on the actual basket unless they are too far apart.
