Expert Reply:

The Yakima SkinnyWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07014 (without extension) fits on a crossbar spread of 24" - 38". The SkinnyWarrior # Y07014-16 with the extension making it a 74" long cargo basket can fit on a crossbar spread of 30" to 60".

With your Rhino-Rack Vortex Bars like # JA7972 that are sitting 48.3 inches apart, the SkinnyWarrior # Y07014-16 can definitely fit onto your bars. My main note is that you need to carry it with its extension attached, because its shorter configuration is too short for your bars.

The Yakima Warrior Series is a great series of cargo baskets. My favorite part about them is how you can customize them with different accessories to fit your specific needs. You can pick up items like a Stretch Net # Y07018 to wrap around your cargo or etrailer Cam Buckle Straps # E98876-2 to tie down large items like boxes or kayaks.
