Question:

I would like to order Baseline Towers, and move over some lock cores from an existing Yakima rack, I believe I need a blank key to do that, can I order the key separately?

Expert Reply:

You're looking for the Replacement Control Key for Yakima Same Key System # Y8007835, which will allow you to move lock cores from your existing Yakima towers to your new Baseline towers. This disengages the splines on the lock cores to allow them to be removed from towers, bike racks or cargo boxes equipped with Yakima SKS locks.

It looks like you've got a 2019 Ford Ranger so the complete Yakima roof rack kit for your vehicle that uses the Yakima 48" Roundbars # Y00408 you were looking at uses the following parts:

BaseLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars - Naked Roofs - Qty 4 # Y28TR
RoundBar SL Adapter for Yakima BaseLine, SkyLine, TimberLine, and RidgeLine Towers - Qty 4 # Y03536
BaseClip Fit Kit for Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack Towers - Qty 4 # Y06124
