Can Yakima Round Crossbars Be Installed on Cargo Trailer

Question:

I currently have a Yakima roundbar roofrack system on my Jeep which Id also like to use on a 5x10 cargo trailer. Does anyone make feet for that application?

Depending on the side rail design of your 5x10 cargo trailer you should be able to use 4 of the Yakima TimberLine Towers # 8880628 along with the RoundBar SL Adapter Kit # Y03536 to get your Yakima round crossbars mounted on your trailer.

This system will work as long as your crossbars are long enough to reach the rails of your trailer and if your trailer has rails that don't have over a 2" diameter.

If this is a utility trailer with a box then you're looking at a different roof rack system like the Rack'Em Fitz-All Enclosed Trailer Ladder Rack # RA-28.
