Hey Eric, thanks for reaching out!

Yes, the Yakima LockNLoad Platform Rack for Crossbars # Y05044-39 is compatible with the TruXedo Elevate ladder rack system. The Elevate uses standard-sized crossbars so you won't have any fit issues at all, just keep in mind that you might need to adjust where the mounting hardware sits to get it to fit properly.

I really like the thought of these 2 products being used together - are you planning to use it for camping, or more for standard cargo space? If you can snag some photos and upload them with your review once you have everything set up, I'd love to see it!

Hey Eric, how did the Yakima LockNLoad Platform work out with your TruXedo Elevate rack? Did adjusting the mounting hardware give you a solid fit? Your update could make it easier for the next person pairing these two systems.
