Very nice, high quality product.
by: Ronnie 08/10/2022
The bars work great, had to piecemeal the bars and Overhaul HD rack due to shortages. They give me plenty of room for two kayaks (Bonafide SS127 and Old Town Derigo 12).

Purchased for a 2019 Tacoma trd offroad.
Absolutely love the rack system. We also attached a cargo basket up on the crossbars. Very useful, greatly increases our cargo capacity for camping trips.

These bars can support anything you need. For work they are great for ladders or lumber. For play, a raft and/or my Yakima box can be loaded on them too.

Review from a similar HD in Roof Rack
I ordered the Yakima roof rack for a 2019 Hyundai Ioniq. I went with the heavy duty one for extra strength but it is quite a bit thicker, likely increasing wind noise. So I might have chosen the aerodynamic lighter weight one if I was to do it again. Also, I needed to get larger bolts for my kayak holder to get around the crossbar. The instructions and video on website were very helpful but they did not explain well how to adjust the toe and pitch. For the toe adjustment, you have to push the metal post with the tool before tightening. That was not obvious. For the pitch, it helped to do that once the towers are attached to crossbar. Then you can tilt tower while cross bar is laying flat (upside down). I ended up having to add tilt on both front and back crossbars for them to be flat when installed. Website said only front one would need to be pitched. I am very pleased with the look and sturdiness of the product. My Hyundai Dealer had zero options for this car.

Review from a similar HD in Roof Rack
We purchased the rack 5 weeks in advance of our up and coming trip. (Rack is amazing FYI). However, The website states free shipping over a certain amount. Weeks went by with notifications nothing was sent and the order kept being pushed back.
Once I called I was told those who chose to purchase shipping vs opting for the free shipping got their orders firsts; everyone else fell to the bottom. After waiting a month for “free shipping” I opted to have paid shipping and I received the rack within days.
While this company has many products I could use, I refuse to use them again because what is advertised is NOT what they ethically hold themselves accountable too.
Comments
I know that it can be frustrating when you are needing to have the rack quickly to go on a trip. I will say that orders that have express shipping will ship a few days sooner from our warehouse, especially during our busy summer months. We have opened new warehouses this year with added staff to help.

Review from a similar HD in Roof Rack
My local vendor here in Hawaii had everything I needed for my rack install except 2 pairs of the Yakima HD Crossbars. Due to supply chain issues, it was unknown when the would come in. etrailer to the rescue. HD bars we’re in stock. Site navigation, price, checkout, and shipping were excellent. Yakima HD Crossbars are excellent. Thanks to etrailer, I was able to finish my rack project.

- What is the Weight Capacity of the Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01159?Yes! I am happy to report that we do carry the Yakima HD Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 78" Long - Qty 2 # Y01159. With these crossbars, it comes with a 500 pound maximum weight capacity. However, it is important to note that when considering a roof rack system, maximum weight capacities are determined by the least-rated component. If you have legs that are rated for 250 pounds, for example, you would adhere to the 250-pound capacity. If you need a complete setup for your vehicle, feel...
view full answer... - Will Yakima SkyBox 16 Roof Cargo Box Fit Yakima HD CrossbarsThe Yakima SkyBox 16 Roof Cargo Box is compatible with bars measuring up to 1-11/16" tall x 3-1/2" wide. The Yakima HD Crossbars like part # Y01159 measure 1-1/2" tall x 3" wide so they will be a fit for this cargo box. I didn't see any instructions with the cargo box that are specific to these bars so you'll just want to use the general guidelines which I have attached below. Please note, the clamps don't need to fully close in order for the box to be sure.

- Best Way To Add Crossbars To The Bed of a 2008 Chevrolet SilveradoI have the perfect system to add crossbars to the bed of your 2008 Chevrolet Silverado without drilling. For this, I recommend using the Yakima BedRock HD Towers part # Y01160 with the Yakima HD Crossbars part # Y01159. This is a brand new system from Yakima that features clamp on mounting feet that locks to your bed and durable crossbars capable of up to 300 lbs. There is not going to be another system on the market that will be able to provide you with a 300 lb weight capacity save for...

- Can The HD Crossbars for the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer Be Raised?The HD Bars # Y01159 for the Yakima EasyRider Double Decker Trailer # Y08129 currently only have the one adapter included with the trailer for mounting. You may be able to have new mounts custom machined to clamp around the tube and raise the height for the crossbars. This would have to be a custom part as Yakima does not manufacture another mount at this time.
view full answer... - Which Length Yakima HD Crossbars for BedRock Truck Bed Rack for 2018 Ram 1500According to Yakima, the 68 inch HD crossbars would be too short, you'll need to use the 78 inch bars. The bars and the Yakima BedRock Towers are sold together in a kit as part # Y01160-59. The rack will have a 300 lb capacity, and you can see an installation video by using the provided link.
view full answer... - T-Slot Nuts to Fit Yakima HD CrossbarsI recommend picking up the Aero Style Crossbar T-Slot Fit Kit # MPG8287 which comes with bolts, nuts, and washers that will fit in the Yakima HD Bar T-Slots like the 78" part # Y01159. If you're trying to find specific dimensions for your own hardware, the T-Slot measures 22mm wide and 8 mm tall and then the opening at the top measures 11mm wide (see attached photo).

- Will etrailer Kayak Roof Rack Work With Yakima HD CrossbarsYes, the etrailer Kayak Roof Rack part # e98878 fits bars up to 3-1/8" wide x 1-1/2" tall and the Yakima HD Crossbars like part # Y01159 measure 3" wide x 1-1/2" tall so they will work together. This is an excellent all inclusive option that has everything you need to secure a kayak and as they don't take up much space on the roof, you can haul more gear alongside like another kayak with a second set of cradles.
view full answer... - Can You Use the Yakima HD Crossbar On a Rack and Roll TrailerNo. 78" Long Yakima HD bars # Y01159 cannot be mounted on the Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer # Y08107. The Rack and Roll trailer is only designed to be used with round crossbars. If you're looking for a kayak carrier that has a higher capacity and comes with the HD bars the Yakima Easy Rider # Y08129 is what you're looking for. The EasyRider is a double-decker trailer that gives you 2 levels of storage, plus the built in shocks on the trailer provide you with added cushioning to protect your...
view full answer... - Do Yakima Rooftop Cargo Boxes Fit on the Yakima OverHaul HD CrossbarsYes they do! The Yakima OverHaul HD Adjustable Truck Rack # Y01151-59 that you referenced utilizes the Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01159 which measure 78" long x 3" wide x 1-1/2" tall which means they are about 1/2" taller and 1/8" thinner than the Yakima JetStream crossbars. Yakima has confirmed that all of their rooftop cargo boxes, like the SkyBox 18 # Y07336 are compatible with the HD bars. I have attached a link to all of the Yakima rooftop cargo boxes that you can filter through. I...
view full answer... - 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty Yakima HD Crossbar Length Recommendation for Truck BedI recommend going with the 78" Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01159 for your application. These will be a bit longer than the width of your bed so you you'll have enough room to fit it with your towers. If you already have the towers that fit directly to your retractable tonneau cover then don't forget to pick up the HD Bar SL Adapter Kit # Y03541 so the HD bars will fit the Yakima towers you have. We haven't had a chance to install this on a 2019 Ford F-250 as of yet (March 2022) but I did install...
view full answer... - Recommended Crossbar Size for Yakima Overhaul HD on 2019 Ram 2500You really could use either one of the 68" # Y01158 or 78" # Y01159 bars, but I have a feeling that the 78" bars are going to stick out a little bit too far, so I do recommend going with the 68" Yakima HD Bars # Y01158. Obviously having longer bars means more space, but the usable space outside of the bars really isn't all that beneficial since it's not going to be able to bear heavier loads. The only time I would recommend going with longer bars in this case is if you were using an awning...
view full answer... - Can the Yakima OutPost HD Truck Bed Ladder Rack Be Used with a ToolboxYes, you can position the uprights on the Yakima OutPost HD Mid-Height Truck Bed Ladder Rack Towers part # Y01152 further in so that you have room for your crossover style toolbox. The crossbar spread is pretty much up to you and what you are carrying. Please note the above system does not come with crossbars so you will need to purchase these separately. For this, we have part # Y01157 for mid-size trucks or part # Y01159 for full-size trucks. If you have a Nissan or Toyota with the track...
view full answer... - Are Thule Accessories Compatible With Yakima HD CrossbarsThe Yakima HD Crossbars are 3" wide x 1-1/2" tall, so most Thule accessories are compatible with them, so long as the Thule accessories mount to channels or bars of that width (you didn't mention the specific accessory for me to verify). The Yakima HD crossbars come in a number of different lengths: - 55" Long: Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01156 - 60" Long: Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01157 - 68" Long: Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01158 - 78" Long: Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01159 I have added a link...
view full answer... - How Long Are the Yakima HD Crossbars?The Yakima HD Crossbar # YA34FR measures 60" from end to end including the endcaps. Yakima does also make this bar in a large 68" version # Y01158 and an extra-large 78" version # Y01159 if you're interested as well. Additionally, the t-tracks run the entire length of the crossbar, is 13/16" wide, 1/4" tall, and has a 3/8" opening.

For a track system on a hard tonneau you can use the Yakima Overhaul HD Adjustable Truck Bed Rack # Y01151 which is compatible with the track rails. Then you can use the separate crossbars available in the following lengths: 55"--Y01156 60"--Y01157 68"--Y01158 78"--Y01159 The weight capacity on the rack will be...

The Replacement Top Infill # Y01166 is the Yakima part number 8001166 which fits both the HD bars and JetStream crossbars. The # Y01166 is 76" long to fit the longest JetStream while the # Y33KV is 74-13/16" long fitting up to the 78" HD Bars # Y01159.

These Yakima HD bars are 3 inches by 1-1/2 inches and will work perfectly with the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier and Lift Assist with Tie-Downs - Side Loading # TH898. If you desire longer bars for more clearance when using the Hullavator, then you will use the Yakima OverHaul HD Adjustable Truck Bed Ladder Rack Uprights - Aluminum...
view full answer... - What Aftermarket Crossbars can Hold Two Thule Hullavators with Kayaks on a 2020 Subaru Outback?I think I found a good solution! The weight of the two Thule Hullavators # TH898 and two 38 pound kayaks would need a weight capacity on a rack system that could carry 154 pounds. It would also have to have much longer crossbars than your average since this takes up 36" of crossbars space. Crossbars that would accommodate this on your factory roof rack would be the 78" Yakima HD Crossbars # Y01159. These bars have a maximum capacity of 220 pounds. In order to attach these bars to your rails,...

view full answer... - Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack for 2018 F150 Supercrew 4x4In addition to the # Y00426 JetStream crossbars and the # Y28TR BaseLine towers, you'll also need the # Y06122 BaseLine fit kit. If you wanted to go with the HD crossbars, the 78 inch long bars are part # Y01159 and you'd also need the SL adapter so the bars work with the BaseLine towers. The adapter is part # Y03541. According to Yakima, the fact that you have a sunroof won't prevent the rack from being installed, but I recommend taking care before operating it as it can interfere with...

- Is Yakima MegaWarrior Cargo Basket Compatible With Yakima HD CrossbarsYou can absolutely use Yakima HD crossbars with the Yakima MegaWarrior Large Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07080. The two are compatible, but you will need to use the clamps to install the MegaWarrior as there is not a way to mount this basket in the bars' channel. The only thing I do recommend adding to this basket, in order to protect your investment, is the Locking Brackets with SKS Cores # Y07064. As for the Yakima HD crossbars, they are available in a number of different sizes: 55 inches...

The Yakima Overhaul HD that works with this is # Y01151 paired with the Tonneau Cover Adapter # Y01155 and the 78" HD Bar Crossbars # Y01159. As for the Thule Hullavator # TH898, with your 78" of bar space, you have plenty of bar space and some overhang for this kayak carrier. Just note that the ladder rack has 300 lbs weight capacity on-road and 180 lbs off-road. Since the Hullavator...
view full answer... - Putting Stronger Crossbars on Sylvan Sport Go Easy TrailerThat is an interesting project you have there, and I called my friend in Yakima to discuss how it could fit. Since Sylvan Sport is not a brand we work with and can test on, we don't have the information to give confirmed fits. I can give my recommendation though based off my experience with kayak trailers. I am curious about how you can fit 4 bikes and two kayaks onto your bars. A close equivalent of the Go Easy Trailer is the Yakima EasyRider # Y08129. The EasyRider uses 78" HD Bars #...

Therefore, unless you have one of the very roof rooftop cargo baskets which let you attach crossbars to the top, this would not work. I recommend longer crossbars for the roof rack so you can fit both the cargo basket and fly rod carrier. The fly rod carrier is around 7-1/8" wide. If you can let me know what roof rack system you currently have I'd be glad to see if we have some...
