Hey David, unfortunately it looks like the Yakima RuggedLine HD Mounting System for LockNLoad Platform # Y53DJ is for 5th generation Toyota 4Runner's so it's not going to work with your 2023 GMC Yukon XL.
since you already have rails, you don't need the RuggedLine system and can just use the Yakima LockNLoad Platform Rack for Crossbars # Y05044-39.
This platform rack measures 55" long x 49" wide, and has a built in wind deflector to reduce wind noise and drag. If there is anything else I can do for you, please feel free to drop a comment and let me know.

Bryce, thanks for the the response. I had one more question on a diffrent rack system. Do you know if the rhino rack backbone system for the 2020 yukon XL will fit the 2021-2025 yukon XL. I reached out to rhino rack themselves, there response was to ask a local installer to see if they had any experience with that. Thank you David
