Can LockRack Hardware Kayak Carrier Hardware be Swapped to T-Bolt  

Updated 12/11/2025 | Published 12/10/2025

Question:

Does the LockRack Replacement T-Bolt Spacer Pack for Watersport Carrier Channel Mount Bases Part : LR72FR fit the LockRack Watersport Carrier Universal Crossbar Adapters Part : LR53FR ? If not, is there another T-bolt version that does?

Hey Henry, it sounds like you are asking if the crossbar hardware kit # LR53FR can be swapped out for the T-Bolt hardware kit # LR72FR so that your LockRack can attach directly to the top channels of crossbars. Is that what you are asking?

No, the verb I used is "fit", not "swapped". Will those t-bolts work with the clamps? Will the t-bolts fit up through the holes on top pf the upper part of the clamps? As shown on, the etrailer website, the (4) clamps do not come with the t-bolts. The (4) t-bolts and circular rubber pads are listed as a separate item. There is an etrailer video that illustrates how the clamps and the t-bolts are assembled and mounted on the crossbars.

@HenryP Ahh yes now I see what you mean. The T-bolts would fit through the clamps.
