Question:
Hello, I looked over some videos of yakima roof racks and came across one that had yakima parts Y00409, Y00124 and Y00657. Are these parts available still? Is there a cost efficient substitute?

While we do have a great roof rack choice for your 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan with a naked roof, we do not carry the specific Yakima Q-clips you need to fit the Yakima RoundBars # Y00409 and the Q-Towers - Qty 1 # Y8880047 to your roof. That is because the Yakima Q-clips have been discontinued from production.
As a great alternative, the best and only option we have is the SeaSucker Monkey Bars # 298-SX6000B. This roof rack comes with an impressive 150-pound weight capacity and involves the quickest installation and removal process out of any roof rack we carry. Since the bars only measure 1-1/4" in diameter, they are compatible with most clamp-on accessories. I went ahead and attached a video that shows the mighty strength of the SeaSucker vacuum cups.
For added theft-deterrence, we have you covered! I recommend using the SeaSucker Trunk Anchor # 298-BA0020 and the etrailer cable lock # e98891.
