Will the SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box # SR7018 Fit Round Yakima Crossbars

Question:

Id like to get this rack but have a yakima Q towers/ Q system. The bars are round and I was wondering if the U bolts will safely secure to it.

Yes, the SportRack Vista XL Cargo Box, # SR7018, will fit the round Yakima crossbars. The u-bolts that come with this cargo box have an arc, so they will not allow the box to slide on the crossbar once they are tightened down. I recommend centering the crossbars in the u-bolt as much as possible.

I have attached the installation instructions as well as a review video for you to check out.
