Can the Yakima SkyBox 16 Mount to the Crossbars of the Thule Xsporter Pro Ladder Rack?
Question:
Can I attached my Yakima SkyBox 16 to the crossbars on a Thule Xsporter Pro Shift? I see you answered a similar question about the Xsporter Ladder Rack but the Xsporter Pro seems to have bigger crossbars maybe?

Expert Reply:
Yes, you can. The Yakima SkyBox NX 16 Cargo Box item # Y95AV fits on crossbars that are up to 3-1/2" wide x 1-11/16" tall. The Thule Xsporter item # TH500XTB has crossbars that are 3-1/2" wide x 1-1/2" tall so they are just short enough to for the cargo box to fit. You will need to push your uprights closer. The cargo box needs them to be between 24" and 36" apart.
