What Size T-Bolt Fits Top Channel of Malone Crossbars
Updated 01/12/2026 | Published 09/07/2024 >
Question:
I have a 2017 Honda Odyssey with stock roof rack and crossbar rails. Want to install MAL84AR rails to use with rooftop tent and kayak. Can you tell me what the t-slot specs are for that Malone rack so I can purchase the proper fittings (M6, M8, etc) ?

Hey Chad, the Malone crossbar top channels like what is on the # MAL84AR is designed to fit the standard 3/4 inch square bolts with the thread size of M6. That said, if your roof tent comes with hardware to fit top channels it's going to fit the Malone as they are essentially all made to a standard size.

Hey Chad, how did things go with the Malone AirFlow2 crossbars on your Odyssey? Did the M6 fittings work well with your rooftop tent and kayak setup? Your update could make it easier for the next person planning a similar build.
