Expert Reply:

The Yakima LockNLoad platform rack has a 220 lb weight rating when mounted on 2 crossbars. When you add the Expansion Pack # Y24FR it increases to 330 lbs for a 3 crossbar system, or 440 lbs for a 4 crossbar system.

Please note that the weight capacity of your vehicle will likely be less than the capacity for the LockNLoad so you'll need to take that into account as well.
