Best Yakima Roof Rack for 2020 Jeep Cherokee With Raised Side Rails
Question:
I have a 2020 Jeep Cherokee Altitude/Latitude. I need cross bars to carry my kayak. I already have the Yakima kayak cradles, but need the cross bars, I have factory installed raised rails. I believe I need the 50in bar space? Which Yakima would be best.

Expert Reply:
You are absolutely right that the 50 inch Yakima crossbars are exactly what you need for your 2020 Jeep Cherokee. The best Yakima rack for your Cherokee with raised side rails consists of just a couple parts:
- Yakima JetStream Crossbars # Y00425
- TimberLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y33TR
- Same Key System Lock Cores (Optional) # Y07204
This rack is going to give you a very strong and quiet system on top of your 2020 Cherokee so you can easily haul your kayaks. The accompanying photo is of this rack on a similar year Cherokee so you can see exactly how it will look on yours.
The only thing I do recommend is adding the lock cores because they lock the rack to your Jeep to help protect your investment.
