Question:

https://www.etrailer.com/p-Y07335.html Click on that link above, and under specsinch it says crossbar spread: 24inch - 42 https://www.etrailer.com/question-457266.html Click on that link above and you will see that your expert, Jason, said the crossbar spread simply need to be between 24 and 36 inches on center. So which is true? Is the maximum compatible cross bar spread 36inch or 42? I have Rhino-Rack RVP Roof Rack for Fixed Mounting Points - Vortex Aero Crossbarsinch purchased from your website. My cross bar dimensions are the following..... - spread from center of crossbars: 36” - spread from inner edge of crossbars: 33” - spread from outer edge of crossbars: 39” Thanks

Thank you for pointing out that discrepancy. The Yakima SkyBox NX 16, part # Y95AV, does have a crossbar spread of 24" - 36". I will have this updated immediately.

As for your crossbars, the distance used is the center to center. As such, this cargo box will work with your RVP rack.

I've linked to a video review of the SkyBox below.
