Can Square Crossbars Be Used On Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer To Stop Loads Shifting

Question

Question:

I have a Yakima rack and roll trailer 78” wide. I would like to replace the round bars with a type of square bar to avoid shifting during transport. I discovered the Thule square bars were not available anymore. Are there other brands that would work?
