Recommended Kayak Carrier for Yakima OffGrid Rooftop Cargo Basket
Question:
I have a Jeep Gladiator with Thule Wingbars and a large Yakima Off-Grid Basket. I want to carry two Kayaks - what do you recommend?

Expert Reply:
The Accessory Bar for 49" Wide Yakima OffGrid Roof Cargo Basket # Y07354 is what you attach to if you won't be removing the Yakima Off-Grid Basket # Y07139-09.
Your roof rack is rated for 165 lbs and the basket weight needs to be subtracted so your Kayaks will need to fall into that weight limit. I recommend using a kayak carrier like the Thule Compass Kayak and SUP Carrier w/ Tie-Downs # TH890000 you asked from to secure your kayaks. The Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs - J-Style or Post Style - Folding - 1 or 2 Kayaks # Y04073 is a similar option to assist if you prefer a specific brand.
