Video Transcript for Curt Extension for Roof Mounted Cargo Basket Review

Matt: Hey guys Matt here at etrailer.com. Today were going to be taking a quick look at the Curt 21 Inch extension piece for the Curt Rooftop Cargo Basket, part number C18117. Now this extension piece will give you an additional 21 inches to your existing Curt Rooftop Cargo Basket. You can see its made of the same heavy duty, strong steel construction. It has that nice black powder-coat finish to help resist rust and corrosion. It also comes with the hardware and tools so that you can install it directly to your existing Curt Rooftop Cargo Basket. Now one thing to keep in mind when purchasing this extension you want to make sure that the roof or basically how youre vehicle is engineered so that youre going to have enough space. For example here we had to push the basket a little bit farther close to the front just to make sure that we can get access to the rear hatch.

Now it is kind of close on this vehicle so again just something to really keep in mind when youre deciding to purchase this extension. So with the extension the overall basket dimensions are going to be 62-1/2 inches long by 37 inches wide by 4 inches deep. Now well go ahead and load up some gear and take it out on the road. Now with our gear all loaded up well be using the 65 inch by 38 inch Curt stretchable cargo net to secure our gear in place. This is part number C18201. Now with our gear all secured we can go ahead and take it out on the road. That will complete todays review of the Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket Extension, part number C18117.

This really increases the carrier capacity (size, not weight) and now accepts my carry bags without them hanging over the edges.

The basket and extension are fantastic. Have used it multiple times. Great product. A little wind noise when empty going down the road. Other than that, no complaints.



by:

I have bought the Curt Roof mount cargo basket 2 weeks prior to a trip, so we could carry more to and not be so cramped in my Subaru Forester. However, the original one I bought seems a little small. So I bought this extender for it, and it worked out great. they shipped it immediately, and delivery was very fast. Easy to assemble and would recommend to anyone who has a shorter basket.



by:

I bought the Curt roof top basket and mounted it to my 13 JK. I wanted it lower than the offered brackets would allow so I made my own mounting kit. I worked great and looks much better low to the roof.



by:

Loved the price and the look. I had a very difficult time tightens the attachment brackets that connect the carrier to the roof. The lock nuts on two of them were extremely hard to tighten. I had to use vice grips on two of them. One of the plastic pieces broke that cover the lock nut.



by:

A real bargain to extend your storage basket.

Pretty good. A few minor rust spots that need touching up with paint, but then again, I drive this on the salt water beach all summer.



by:

This extension really looks great with the core basket. Great quality. Simple installation.



by:

This cargo basket arrived in 2 separate boxes. Both boxes were not inside of any additional packaging and had received a fair amount of rips and holes prior to arriving, though the products inside did not appear to have received damage.
Upon installing the basket, I discovered that one of the pieces was swapped for a duplicate of another piece and so everything I needed was not there. Reaching out to support, I was sent a replacement part after some back and forth to explain the issue.
After I was able to install the basket, I discovered that there was a unreasonable high-pitched, loud whine when driving at highway speeds. Because of this, I decided that returning this product was my best option. The return process was disappointing due to significant fees.



by:

Works well. Brackets that attach to rails dont fit perfectly. But, it's secure and works.



by:

The product itself is great.

The
hardware (machine screws), as noted in many reviews, are sub-par and the heads strip very easily with the tool provided.

The manufacturer is likely aware of this ongoing issue and should address it by utilizing stainless steel screws/hardware for durability and rust prevention...I had to spend an additional $10 to bring it up to par...

So this is not at all an issue for etrailer, as you delivered as promised and at a great price!

One year later and still going strong! Having replaced the screws as mentioned in my initial review, the cargo rack is easily converted to the longer rack when used on my larger vehicle. No rust and strong, this rack is a worthwhile investment.



by:

great guilty looks great & well built very happy with it



by:

Shipped with the complete rack that I'm wondering if these parts aren't stolen! Ordered another part from a jeep company and their product hasn't even shipped yet. Etrailer even called me when there was a small issue with my credit card; their customer service representative was fantastic and went above and beyond is making sure was my order was processed and would ship as ordered. Product is top notch and better than some car roof racks I've seen a jeep functions.



by:

Excellent customer service!



by:

Cargo basket is top notch! Looks great on my Jeep Cherokee, and is tough enough to survive the brutal North Dakota winters.

  • Can 2 Extensions be Added to Curt Roof Mount Cargo Basket
    On the Curt roof mount cargo basket # C18115 you could use 2 extensions, # C18117. This would make the basket 83-1/2 inches long. Because of the length I strongly reocmmend adding a third roof rack bar for extra support. Even if you used some foam blocks or something similar, extra support is likely going to be needed.

  • Does the Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket Have a Short Extension for a 2015 Buick Encore
    Hey Pat! Curt only makes the 21" Extension # C18117 for their Roof Mounted Cargo Basket # C18115, so I recommend using the standard size for your 2015 Buick Encore. If you don't already have the cargo basket then you might be interested in the Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket # RMCB which is a little bit longer and has a lot more adjustability for the mounting brackets.

  • What is a Waterproof Storage Solution for a Roof Cargo Basket?
    It is absolutely fine to leave a roof cargo basket on when it is not in use. This adds a rugged style to the vehicle and means that you will not need to find space inside your home or garage to store the rack between trips. A recommended setup for a cargo basket on a 2016 Jeep Renegade is the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack, part # MPG216 combined with the Curt Roof Mounted Basket, part # C18115. This provides additional cargo space and is expandable with the Cargo Basket Extender, part # C18117...

  • Will Curt Roof Cargo Carrier # C18115 Fit On 2008 Nissan Pathfinder LE With Factory Roof Rack
    As long as the crossbars on your 2008 Nissan Pathfinder LE are spaced at least 15 inches apart and the crossbars are 3 inches wide or less, the Curt Roof Cargo Carrier # C18115 should fit your vehicle with no problem. The assembly is quick and easy and the carrier comes with a fairing that will reduce wind noise and drag. I have included a link to the installation instructions for this item. If you need extra room, you might be interested in the Curt Basket Extension # C18117. This item,...

  • Inside Dimensions of Extension for Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket
    The Extension for Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket # C18117 is 37" wide and 4" deep measured from the inside of the bars. It's 39-1/4 inches wide on the outside of the bars. It lets you add on to your Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket # C18115 for 21 more inches of carrying space. There is a kit available with the extension # C18117 and the basket # C18115 together, the Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket # C18115-117. I linked the baskets and extension, as well as a few review videos for reference.

  • Availability of Extension for MaxxTow Roof Mounted Cargo Basket
    There is not an extension available for the MaxxTow Roof Mounted Cargo Basket MT70115 that you referenced. We do have other cargo baskets like the Curt # C18115 that can be extended with the add-on piece # C18117, but unfortunately this isn't possible with your existing unit. If you are needing a little more space for cargo another option is a hitch-mounted cargo carrier like the Curt # C18145 if you have a trailer hitch installed on your vehicle. If you don't yet have a trailer hitch...

  • Compatibility of Curt # C18115 Roof Rack with 2006 Toyota 4Runner With Roof Rails
    The Curt Roof Mounted Cargo Basket # C18115 plus the # C18117 extension won't attach directly to the side rails on the roof of your 2006 Toyota 4 Runner. The basket needs roof rack crossbars to provide an attachment point. SportRack offers a reasonably priced crossbar kit that would work perfectly for you, part # SR1098. Once the crossbars are installed, you can adjust the bar spread (spacing between the two crossbars) wherever you need to in order to install the roof basket.. As you can...

  • Will Using the Extension with a Curt Cargo Basket Increase its Weight Capacity
    Adding the extension # C18117 to your Curt cargo basket will not increase the weight capacity. It does not decrease it either. The weight capacity will stay the same. Please be sure to consult the vehicle owner's manual and/or the vehicle manufacturer for the roof weight carrying capacity. There are several components that have weight capacities, the basket is one, the roof rack is another, and the vehicle roof is the third. You will need to go by whichever one has the lowest capacity.

  • Will Yakima Spare Tire Carrier for Roof Baskets Fit a Curt Basket on a 2008 Ford Escape
    The Yakima spare tire carrier # Y07076 will fit a Curt cargo basket # C18115 but it holds the tire in the confines of the basket. So if the basket you have is not wide or long enough for the spare tire on your 2008 Ford Escape then you would need either a different basket or the extension for the Curt basket, # C18117. If your Escape has the standard 235/70-16 tires then those are roughly 29 inches in diameter so there should not be a problem fitting in the Curt 41.5 x 37 inch basket.

  • Will the Curt Cargo Basket Fit on a 2011 Nissan Armada Platinum with the Factory Roof Rack
    As long as the crossbars on your 2011 Nissan Armada Platinum are no wider than 3 inches, then the Curt Cargo Basket, # C18115, and the extension, # C18117, will fit. As a side note, this cargo basket requires a minimum crossbar spread of 15 inches, which should not be a problem on your vehicle. Also, the weight capacity of the cargo carrier remains at 150 lbs when the extension is added. Before loading any cargo on your roof, I recommend checking your owners manual to verify the weight...

  • Will Spare Tire Carrier for Yakima Roof Rack Cargo Baskets # Y07076 Fit Curt Cargo Basket # C18115
    It should work, the dimensions are a little bit different but they should be close enough to make it work. The Spare Tire Carrier for Yakima Roof Rack Cargo Baskets # Y07076 that you referenced is designed to fit cargo baskets with 1/2 in diameter cross tubes that are spaced 3-11/16 inches apart measured on center. The Curt Roof Basket part # C18115 that you referenced has 1/2 diameter tubes that are spaced 3-1/2 inches apart. That's a difference of a little under .2 of an inch in spacing...

I included installation instructions for both of these products below for you to check out.

  • Does Roof Basket Have an Extension?
    There are similar baskets with extensions available, but none that will work with the Reese or Rola Roof Cargo Basket .
