Recommened Conversion Kit for Yakima HullRiser to Fit On Larger Crossbars

Question

Question:

I have a Adarac Pro Series aluminum rack installed on a Jeep Gladiator. I also have Yakima HullRaiser, and Mako Saddles and HullyRollers that Id like to install on the Adarac cross bars. The Yakima snap arounds are not big enough for a secure fit on the 1 1/2 Adarac cross bars. Is there an adapter that would work for this installation?
