Will Yakima Fairing Fit Around Yakima HD Crossbars
Updated 09/03/2024 | Published 06/04/2022 >
Question:
I can not find a straight answer for this question. I have a 2022 Outback Wilderness with the Yakima HD bars on Timberline towers. With the girth of the rack there is plenty of wind noise. With this in mind, would the fairings straps fit around the bars? Along with that, which size fairing would best fit my Subie?

Yes the Yakima WindShield Fairing for Roof Racks # Y05017 that you referenced will fit around the larger diameter Yakima HD bars you mentioned.

The cradle part of the bracket(s) on this fairing is shaped to fit a round or jet stream bar. The bracket shape does not properly cradle the HD Yakima bar. The straps on the bracket are long enough to wrap around the HD bar but that really isn’t enough. In the end the bracket misfit to the HD bar results in a very poor installation of the windshield. I do not recommend using these brackets. I hope Yakima designs a properly fit windshield bracket for their HD bar.
