What is Static Weight Capacity of Yakima LockNLoad Cargo Platform
Updated 09/12/2025 | Published 05/17/2025
Question:
1 You list the on and off road load bearing capability of the Yakima LockNLoad Platform Rack with RuggedLine HD Mounting System - 60 Long x 54 Wide. But what is the static load? For example, if I put a car top tent on it and want to know how much weight it can hold static? and 2 does it fit a 2018 ford F150?

Expert Reply:
Hey Ronald, Yakima states that the static capacity of all of their Yakima LockNLoad platforms is 3x the on road capacity so since the part # Y64NJ has an onroad capacity of 220 lbs that would mean it's static is 660 lbs. This platform fits Ram trucks so I would need to know the cab style of your truck as well as if it has a totally naked roof to see which LockNLoad you'd need for your 2018 Ford F-150.

Hey Ronald, did you find out which cab style your Ford F-150 has and if it has a naked roof to determine the right LockNLoad for your truck? I'm asking because I want to make sure you get the best fit for your setup.
