Question:
What width crossbars does this require? Can I use 60inch or does it require 68?

Expert Reply:
Hi Joe; are you wanting to put the Yakima LockNLoad Platform # Y05046 on the Yakima OutPost HD? If that is the case, you want the 68" crossbars since that is what is recommended for your 2020 Ford F-250. The 60" aren't going to be wide enough.
If you don't have a tonneau cover you need the # Y01152-58 and if you're mounting it on rails with a tonneau cover you need the # Y01152-5855 with the tonneau cover adapter. You will also need the Crossbar Clamps for Yakima LockNLoad Platform Rack # Y05039.

Hey Joe, how did the 68-inch crossbars work out with your LockNLoad Platform on the F-250? Your update could make it easier for others setting up the same rack.
