Looks good. Fits good. My truck is tall. I am small. The rear roller rack makes loading the kayaks easy enough. I have not traveled with them yet.
by: George09/22/2023
The rollers with the saddles work perfectly for loading and unloading the kayaks. My only complaint is that the screw clamps either vibrate loose or do not grip the rack well. They have fallen off a couple of times, luckily, they fell into the bed of my truck.
by: Myfanwy06/27/2023
Product was as described. Easy rolling it onto the roof of my Subaru. Great customer service. Like that you include all the necessary straps too. Thank you!

This roller and pad setup allowed me to get a 68 lb kayak on and off my car by myself. Could not do that with the Jlow racksI

Kit comes as advertised, easy to set up and use
by: Jonah k 08/05/2017
Just got these in the mail. They fit the stock rack on my 02 Subaru outback great and feel extremely durable. I have a very wide and heavy Jackson kayak Big Rig and I feel these will hold it great. Prior to these I trailered it or struggled to get it on the roof. Just roll it up there and secure it. This was the best product for me as all the other racks are so dang light and flimsy. Furthermore this was the best price I could find and I'm lazy and don't want to order the products separate. One and done and you save $ Great buy!

High quality as expected from Yakima.
by: Cathy06/06/2018
This worked GREAT on my 2015 Outback with factory installed roof racks. Right out of the box I installed the SKS lock cores (purchased separately) clamped them on, locked them down, added my kayak and I was off for a day on the river. Just a matter of minutes to install everything. Highly recommend.
by: Morgan09/05/2022
Good carrier set! It's easy to load and holds the boat securely, even our big 14 foot tandem ocean kayak that weighs 75 pounds. The cinch straps are easy to handle and the clips for the loose end of the strap holds it nicely. For anyone trying to decide whether to get the rollers, I would say they do make a modest difference in the ease of unloading. Two sets of saddles would also do the job.
My only complaints are:
1) the bow and stern tie straps don't come with clips to hold the loose end of the strap. I use a binder clip, but people poke fun at me for it.
2) It seems like for this price locks should be included....
Keep in mind this rack takes up most of the space on an SUV roof, so if you need to carry two boats at once, consider J-racks instead.
by: Comrade Captain09/04/2022
I bought these for hauling my wife's kayaks on Yakima's Overhaul rack system. Super easy to use and remove when we're not hauling the kayaks around. Highly recommend.
by: Glenn M08/18/2023
Solidly engineered and manufactured. My racks arrived in a few days. Worked well for my kayak.
by: Dan P01/29/2020
i use with yakima big catch on top of cargo van
rollers work great to help get my 12 foot top water on the roof alone.
the other part works great to hold the front of kayak in place.
by: Gerald07/02/2018
This was my second large order from Etrailer.com and my wife I are VERY pleased! Our first order was a Curt 5th wheel hitch which performed as advertised - so easy to use.
Now we haul our 5th wheel camper and that takes up my entire full sized F250 truck bed which in turn messed up hauling the kayaks back there. I was leaning toward rigging something up on the back of the camper, saw lots of posts on how to many looked very sketchy. Rather than risk dumping our two $$$ fishing kayaks onto the highway.... somewhere..... we bought this GREAT Yakima roof rack system for the TOP of my truck cab. You see, it made me uneasy that I wouldn't be able to keep an eye on our boats if strapped to the back AND we read about many horror stories not limited to the rear bumper falling off from fatigue. Yakima Install; I'm a General Contractor and fancy myself a pretty handy guy so mounting the towers, the rack bars, and all of the accessories onto those took a total three hours. [on-line] videos very useful and follow the easy to read instructions that come with each part and you'll have NO trouble. I have to add, etrailer said it would take one week but I received the complete order within four days. Thank you etrailer for making the ordering through delivery experience so very streamlined!
by: Daryl 05/04/2020
First of all, 5 stars to etrailer as usual. They are amazing. I purchased a Yakima kayak rack, actually 2 and have installed them both on the Jeep roof. Both fit great. Great product that fit my situation. I have bought Yakima products in the past, always great fit form and function. I highly recommend both etrailer and Yakima products.
by: Deanna 07/20/2022
These look amazing and look forward to loading my kayak easily on them. Super easy to install and have a round fit for the Yakima round crossbar. LOVE their products!

Received my order in just a few days! Thank you. Also wanted to let you know I enjoy your videos that you post about how to use the products that you sell

Purchased a Yakima kayak carrier with rollers. Yakima produces a quality product, but it is a bit pricey.
by: David 08/08/2021
Easy to set up. Kayaks fit well on these carriers. I will be observing durability.

- Saddle-Style Watersport Carrier to Fit Prinsu RackThe Prinsu racks look pretty sweet but the 1" x 2" crossbars make it difficult to get product to fit. The Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # Y04083-04082 won't fit due to the larger bars but it looks like you have T-Slots in the crossbars so you can use the Thule DockGlide Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # TH896 instead which comes with hardware to clamp around standard crossbars as well as T-Bolts that will fit the T-Slots on your Prinsu. If the T-Slot opening for your crossbars is no...

- Is Yakima Kayak Carrier Compatible With Fishing Kayak With Scupper HolesYes, you can use the Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs - Saddle Style with Rollers # Y04083-04082 with your Jackson fishing kayak with scupper holes. Those holes will not interfere with the mounting that this carrier provides. The only thing to keep in mind is that this carrier has an 80 lb weight capacity and quite a few fishing kayaks are heavier than that, including some of the Jackson fishing kayaks I saw. If it was you'd need a different carrier, the Yakima BigCatch Kayak Carrier...
view full answer... - Best Kayak Carrier To Use With My 2014 SylvanSport Go Utility/Tent TrailerI have a bunch of ways for you to get your Kayak up on top of your 2014 SylvanSport Go Trailer, but the Thule Hullavator isn't going to be an option because you will need to have 4 to 8 inches of bar overhang. Which, from what I can see there is no overhang on the existing bars you have. The best route to go in your situation would be getting a foam pad to wrap around your crossbars. I like the Malone Foam Block Cargo Carrier # MPG154 which are 12 inches long. Theses will fit any kayak...
view full answer... - Does the Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs Work With Crossbars That Are 3-1/2" Wide x 1-1/2" TallIf you are asking if the Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # Y04083-04082 will work with the Thule Xsporter Pro Adjustable Height Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH500XTB then the answer is yes. The Thule Xsporter Pro Adjustable Height Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH500XTB has load bars (crossbars) that measure 3-1/2" wide x 1-1/2" tall. I contacted Yakima and they were able to confirm that the Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # Y04083-04082 will fit bars with those dimensions. The Yakima Same...
view full answer... - Can the Yakima Kayak Carrier # Y04083-04082 Fit on My Factory Rack on My 2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser?We definitely have a way to confirm whether your round bars on your 2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser work with the Yakima Kayak Carrier # Y04083-04082. As long as the round bars on your rack are at least 1-1/8 inches in diameter, the # Y04083-04082 can clamp onto those bars. I recommend measuring the diameter of your bars to make sure they fit into this thickness requirement.

- Fit of Yakima Kayak Carrier with Curt Roof Rack for Raised Side RailsYes, the Saddle Style with Rollers Yakima Kayak Carrier, # Y04083-04082 will fit the aero bars on the Curt Roof Rack for Raised Side Rails, # C18118. This will also fit round, square, elliptical, and most factory crossbars. For added security, we offer the 12 foot long Yakima RipCord Multipurpose Locking Straps w/ Rubber-Coated Buckles, # Y04048.
view full answer... - Is Yakima Y04091 Big Catch Kayak Carrier Lockable?The Yakima # Y04091 BigCatch isn't lockable, for a similar locking kayak carrier, I'd recommend the # Y04083-04082 Kayak Carrier. If the 80 lb capacity will accommodate your kayak, this would be a good choice for easy loading and unloading. If the 80 lb capacity isn't sufficient, your best bet would be to go with the BigCatch and simply remove the carrier when you're leaving the vehicle unattended.
view full answer... - Does Yakima Deckhand and HandRoll Fit Factory Crossbars of 2012 Toyota RAV4Yes, I checked with Yakiman and the Deckhand Plus HandRoll part # Y04083-04082 that you referenced is a confirmed fit for the factory crossbars of your 2012 Toyota RAV4.
view full answer... - Kayak Roof Carrier Recommendation With Easy Load Assist For One PersonIf you are looking for a saddle style kayak carrier with load assist like the Rhino-Rack Roof Kayak carrier that you referenced part # RR571, I recommend Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs part # Y04083-04082. It is a rear loading roller system that clamps to your cross bars and allows you to easily load the kayak onto the roof into the saddles from the rear of the vehicle. It also comes with with 2 Bow/stern tie-downs that anchor the kayak to your vehicle. I recommend adding the lock...
view full answer... - Is Anything Else Needed with the HandRoll Kayak Carrier on a 2019 Subaru Outback WagonThe HandRoll Carrier # Y04082 that you referenced is actually just the part of the carrier that has the wheels. To complete the carrier you also need some saddles like the DeckHand # Y04083. This combination is available for your 2019 Subaru Outback Wagon in the kit # Y04083-04082 and is compatible with round, square, or aero-style crossbars. To add locks to either setup you need the 4 lock core set # Y07204.
view full answer... - Can Yakima ShowDown Kayak Carrier Be Used on a 2010 Honda Accord CrosstourHey Frank, thanks for reaching out again! The Yakima ShowDown # Y04081 needs the crossbars to extend at least 3-1/2" out past the towers for proper fitment, and Yakima states not to use these with roof racks that clamp to a roof so you wouldn't be able to use the ShowDown with the naked roof on your 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour. If you're wanting some help loading the kayak up to the Yakima Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # Y04083-04082 you previously asked about, I recommend checking out...
view full answer... - Best Kayak Carrier for the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof RackI do have an option for you but the round bar adapters included with the Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs part # Y04083-04082 are designed specifically for Yakima Round Crossbars which are 1-1/8" diameter. The SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack part # 298-SX6000B that you have are about 1-1/4" diameter so they cannot be used together which it sounds like you are aware of. I wish I had some sort of other adapter that would work for you but currently the only option we have for you would...
view full answer... - Carrier for Two Kayaks that Fits 2019 Subaru Outback Wagon with OEM BarsThe Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # Y04083-04082 that you referenced is a fit for the factory crossbars of your 2019 Subaru Outback. Two of these racks would easily fit but it might be challenging to get the two kayaks next to each other since your bars are not super long. Another solution that would work great is the Thule Compass part # TH890000 which can easily fit two 29 inch kayaks and would also fit well on your Subaru bars. Due to it's design it wouldn't be challenging to fit...
view full answer... - Will the Yakima HandRoll Work to Transport a 57-Pound Kayak on My 2013 Mini Countryman?I have a kayak carrier solution for you. The Yakima HandRoll # Y04082 only comes with the roller portion of the setup. With this 1/2 system, are is no front supports that allow you to mount the kayak. In order to have the full setup, you need the # Y04083-04082 that include the saddles. In order to determine if this system will clamp around your factory crossbars on your 2013 Mini Countryman, I recommend measuring your crossbars. If the height and width of your crossbars do not exceed...
view full answer... - What Size Round Bars Will the Yakima Kayak Carrier Part # Y04083-04082 FitThe Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs - Saddle Style with Rollers part # Y04083-04082 is designed to fit a wide variety of roof rack systems including the round bars similar to Yakima Round 48" CrossBars for Yakima Roof Rack Systems part # Y00408. They will work on round bars down to 1-1/8" in diameter. You will find most manufacturers use aftermarket roof racks from name brand companies like Yakima as their in dealer add on shops.
view full answer... - Roof Rack For 2018 Mini Cooper 2-Door With Bare RoofHey Aloisia (which is a very cool name btw); thanks for the question and I checked with all our manufacturers and found there is actually only one roof rack that will work on your 2-door 2018 Mini Cooper with a bare roof, but it won't accommodate the Hullavator, I'm sorry to say. The only rack you can add to your Mini is the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B. These are 48 inch crossbars and will allow you to mount the Thule UpRide Roof Bike Rack # TH599000 which is 13 inches...
view full answer... - Can Thule Hullavator Kayak Carrier and Square Bar Roof Rack Work on 2016 Dodge Grand CaravanI spoke with my contact at Thule and he stated that the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier and Lift Assist # TH898 referenced in your question is not compatible with the 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan. This is simply because the weight capacity of the Grand Caravan along with a roof rack is not sufficient to support the Hullavator. I instead recommend looking at the Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # Y04083-04082. This system is a bit different than the Hullavator but it does also offer some...
view full answer... - How to Carry a Tandem Kayak with a 2017 Ford Edge Titanium with a Panoramic RoofFor your 2017 Ford Edge with the glass roof I recommend going with the Yakima JetStream roof rack. This includes the 50" JetStream Crossbars # Y00425 along with the BaseLine Towers # Y28TR, and Fit Kit # Y06102. To lock this roof rack you will also need the SKS Lock Cores # Y07204. This system has a weight capacity of 165 lbs. The Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier # Y04073 is one of our most popular carriers that will leave enough room on your roof for you to add another accessory if necessary....
view full answer... - Kayak Load Assist on a 2013 Hyundai Accent HatchbackThe only hitches available for a 2013 Hyundai Accent Hatchback are Class I, 1-1/4 inch receivers such as the Draw-Tite # 24884, while the Rhino Rack T-Load Assist Bar RRRTL001 is a Class III item and would be incompatible with any of the hitches that fit your Accent. If you are interested in load assist, you have some options, and I recommend checking out the Inno Kayak Lifter # INA453 or for a load assist and carrier in one, the Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs - Saddle Style with...
view full answer... - Kayak Carrier to Fit on Thule ProBar Roof RackI do have a kayak carrier solution for you to use with the Thule ProBars but the clamps for the Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # Y04083-04082 won't fit. Instead we have the Malone SaddleUp Pro Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs # MPG1001 which mount in the tracks if you are really wanting the saddle style carrier. This is the only saddle style carrier that is compatible. I personally like the Lockrack Adjustable Watersport Carrier # LR54FR instead because it mounts in the T-Slots but it...
view full answer... - Roof Rack and Rear Loading Kayak Carrier Recommendation for a 2021 Honda CR-VFor your application I recommend going with a Yakima setup, both for the roof rack and for the kayak carrier. To install a Yakima roof rack on your 2021 Honda CR-V you need the following: 50" JetStream Crossbars - Black # Y00425 SkyLine Towers - # Y53TR Landing Pad 19 - # Y00245 Lock Core Kit - # Y07204 (optional) The Rhino-Rack Nautic 581 Rear Loading Kayak Carrier # RR581 will fit the channels of the Yakima system just fine and it's a good rear-loading kayak carrier, I just really like...
view full answer... - Rhino-Rack Nautic 581 vs Yakima Roller Carrier Installation for Pungo 120 KayakThe Rhino-Rack Nautic 581 # RR581 and Yakima Kayak Carrier # Y04083-04082 will both fit just fine with your Pungo 120 kayak. I really like the Yakima option due to the rollers so that's what I recommend, but either one will fit with your kayak. The Nautic 581 mounts via T-Slot while the Yakima uses clamps to install on the crossbars. The T-Slot installation will look a little more clean but the clamping system is easier to install. Attached are review videos for you to check out.
view full answer... - Best Kayak Carrier for a SylvanSport Go Easy Trailer Since you are pulling your Kayaks off of a trailer and not a roof rack I would suggest going with a saddle style mount over the J-style. The design of the saddles gives them a bigger surface to put the kayak on, meaning they offer an additional layer of security compared to the J-style types. Same with V-style carriers like the Malone MegaWing item # MPG207 you referenced. The saddle style is a better option. I recommend the Yakima BigCatch Kayak Carrier item # Y04091 over the Rhino-Rack...
view full answer... - Load-Assisted Thule Kayaks Carrier for 2015 Honda CR-V with Factory BarsIn order to use the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier # TH898 the vehicle must have roof crossbars that provide at least 4-inches of available bar space outside the foot assembly. This bar space is required to mount this particular load-assisted kayak carrier without the risk of it contacting the side of the vehicle when it is in the down position. However, we do offer other types of load-assisted kayak carriers that fit on your Honda factory crossbars. These do not share the gas strut-type...
