Ellen: Hey, everyone. I'm Ellen here at etrailer.com, and we're going to be taking a look at the replacement end cap for your HD crossbars from Yakima. So if something happened to that original cap, it got cracked or broken off, this is going to be that direct replacement from Yakima to get you back to your original looking bars. So it's going to come in a couple of pieces because of the way it has to install on the actual load bar itself, so we can take a closer look at how that's going to go together. So we'll have a piece on either side. It's also going to come with a little bar that goes in between, so that's kind of your load tie-down point.
A lot of times we'll put straps or ropes to the end of those bars, acts as an extra loading point. You'll also get a little button cap screw and a bolt.So first thing we're going to do is take the screw and put it into this little slot. You can see how there's kind of a little space there. That's going to match up with our hex nut. And then you also want to place in that bar, because once you snap these guys together, it's going to be really hard to get either one of those things in place.
Then we can take the other side, match it up with the first. Everything should line up. There's a little ridge on this tab or this tab here, so you're going to have to kind of squeeze until they snap over. But you want to make sure that you have everything in place before you do this, because it's going to make it a lot easier. That way, you're you're not having to take it apart and do it again.There we go.
Okay, so everything is lined up now, and you can see this hole here where our nut is going to be captured. Before it was snapped over, those holes didn't really line up, so the way to know that you have it snapped all the way in is that the two holes line up so you can put in the screw. And that's going to keep everything secured together, so you don't have to worry about it coming apart. So you just tighten that down all the way until the screw runs out of threads, or until it's around your bar. So that's going to go through your bar and keep everything tight together, and keep the end cap secured to the bar itself.And that's pretty much all there is to it.
Pretty easy to get that installed. It works with all the lengths of the Yakima HD crossbars, so the complete list of part numbers is at our website here at etrailer.com, where you can also find the load bars and a lot of other accessories to go on them as well as other replacement parts. So I hope this has been helpful in deciding if this is the right piece for you, and also showing you how to get this put together to load it onto your bar. Again, I'm Ellen here at etrailer.com. Thanks for watching.

Replaces 1 EndCap for your Yakima HD crossbars (Y01156, Y01157, Y01158, or Y01159).
Wish the original one didn’t fall off. I guess i never tightened it enough. Good product. Love the racks for my kayaks. Rock solid.
I found it difficult to order this part from Yakima! Thank you E trailer for coming through with the crossbar end cap that proved to be so elusive!
It is what it says it is the end cap to Yakima HD crossbars. In this case it came already assembled.
I had lost an endcap to my Yakima HD Bars and I called Yakima for a replacement and, because they were out of stock they suggested I contact Etrailer. They even gave me a link to your company so I was able to zero right in on the part I needed. I ordered it online and it came pretty quickly. It was in great condition. Thank you for your smooth, fast service.
Part was in stock and was shipped and received as promised. Already installed the part and back in shape.
I went to the Yakima site thinking that would be the best place to get replacement parts for my bed rack. The part I needed was back ordered. I found that etrailer had the part in stock. I'll look here first from now on!
The holes did not line up and the bolt is made from cheap Chinese pot metal.
Perfect replacement fit for my Yakima HD bars. Yakima did not have them in stock, very happy to have found them here.

Perfect replacement after one of my end caps managed to come loose and fall off somewhere down by the river.
Exactly what I ordered and on time as w ell
Quick delivery, exactly what I needed meaning the product description was clear enough to make a confident purchase.
Grateful that e-trailer carries replacement parts. I lost one due to under-tightening the fastener. It did not come with the 12mm long 6mm socket head cap screw but I got that at my local True Value hardware store ($0.99).
E-trailer staff are the best! Always great service
Weren't the same quality molded plastic as Yakima's.
I’m pleased that Yakima makes parts and pieces avaialble for users who need to replace or modify their equipment. E-trailer has always been prompt in shipping and offers great service.
Communications were great!
Super easy install
Part came on time,snaps into crossbars easily. No issues.
Great service ! They even came with the screws needed to secure it to the bar. Other ones I have bought from another site did not
Incredibly Easiy to find, affordable, and fast
Have been struggling to get one of these for months. etrailer was the only place I could preorder one. My only knock here has less to do with etrailer and more to do with Yakima for not having parts available for the HD racks and for a USPS hiccup in shipping. I live on the east coast and USPS sent my package to the west coast before it started to head my direction.
Also, do yourself a favor. Buy some security bolts for this from McMaster-Carr and put some loctite on the bolt threads so you don't lose your end caps. Bolts are M6x1, 12mm threaded length, 15mm total.
Just what I needed. Arrived today and installed with no problems. Thanks
I ordered this product in June, with an “end of August” estimated ship date. To be honest, due to parts shortages an supply chain issues, I really didn’t expect to ever get it. Etrailer was the only location on the internet that I could find this product, much less with a ship date. I was pleasantly shocked when it arrived on Sept. 19. Thanks Etrailer! Thanks Yakima!
Hard to find these replacement caps, but eTrailer delivers!
Even though the Yakima part was backed ordered, my order arrived when, if not before, what etrailer said it would arrive. I didn’t even need to call and find out the status. Great online experience with etrailer. However I think Yakima needs to include some lock tight for the HD crossbar end cap screws. After I installed the missing end cap,I tightened the other end cap screws , again. I’ll be going to the hardware store for a tube of lock tight today.
Quick shipping and exactly what I neede d!

It is unusual that the caps would not fit on the heavy duty cross bars. I am happy to look into this further for you. Would you be able to send a picture of the end caps on the cross bars.
