Does The Length of the Yakima HD Crossbars Include The End Caps?

Question

Question:

The 60 Yakima HD roof racks, what is the total width of the rack with the end caps installed? I see it says rack length but Im needing 60 inches of usable rack inside the caps, is this the case? Or do I need to get the longer one?

Expert Reply:

The 60" Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01157 are going to be 60" from end to end including the caps. As you need 60" of T-slot you would need to step up to the 68" Crossbars # Y01158.
