Expert Reply:

The Malone SaddleUp Pro Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # MPG110MD will not fit larger crossbars but we do have a solution with our Kuat kayak carriers. You can use the Class 2 # C2R1B which is a fixed arm carrier or the Class 4 # KU53VR which is a folding carrier.

The Class 2 is a simple application while the Class 4 looks a bit more sleek and has the ability to fold so you don't have the arms sticking up when you aren't carrying your kayak. The mounting hardware that comes with these are large enough to fit around 3-1/2" wide x 2" tall crossbars so either options won't have any issues.

We don't have any other kayak carriers that will fit the larger crossbars that you have.
