Question:

I was told by one of your experts that Thule part # TH710401 would fit my 2012 GMC Yukon Denali. According to Thule and your own website they will not fit. The Denali has a factory rail system that is flush with the roof, it does not have raised rails like the standard Yukon does. Looking at the profile of the feet I don’t see how they are going to physically work. Can you verify that they will work before I order them? I know Yakima used to make feet that would work but I don’t know the part #. The Thule feet that Etrailer is suggesting aren’t shaped in such a way that they can lock onto the factory rails.

Okay so Yakima does offer a roof rack that fits the unique Denali flush rails of your 2012 GMC Yukon with the part numbers # Y00426, # Y53TR, and # Y00246 for their JetStream bar setup. Thule at this time does not have a fit for the Denali versions of your vehicle.

The fit kit of this rack does use a channel nut that slips into the channels you mentioned having on the flush bars.
