Question:
Hi thanks for the great customer service. Im trying to make my car as low profile as possible as leave my ski racks on all winter. 1. Can this T chanel mount kit be used on the Kuat Switch? 2. Can you use the T mount kit without any spacer or have to at least use the smallest spacer? 3. What is the width of the Switch when folded over without the bracket. Thanks!

Expert Reply:
The T-Channel Mount Kit for the Kuat Grip, part # GRDMK, is not compatible with the Kuat Switch, part # KU44FR. The swivel of the Switch make it so it cannot be replaced. I've linked to a video review of this carrier for you to see how it works.
The width of the Switch without the bracket is 4-3/4".
If you decided to go with the Kuat Grip, part # GRR4B, and also use the T-Channel Kit, then yes, at minimum the smallest spacer would have to be used.
