Expert Answers about Chevrolet Roof Basket


  • Can a Roof Mounted Basket Support a Roof Top Tent
  • As long as the weight of the tent is within the 150 pound capacity of the Thule basket, # TH859XT, and the weight is evenly distributed I don't see why it couldn't support a roof top tent. The roof rack and vehicle roof will also need to be rated high enough for the roof top tent. Rhino-Rack baskets # RMCB and # RMCB02 are rated for 165 pounds but again you are limited to the lowest rated component whether it be the vehicle roof, the roof rack, or the basket.

  • What is the Weight Capacity of the Thule Roof Mounted Cargo Basket, # TH859XT
  • The Thule Canyon Roof Mounted Cargo Basket, # TH859XT, has a capacity of 150 pounds. However, the limiting factor is usually either the roof rack the basket is mounted to or the roof of the vehicle. You will need to check the capacity of each and abide by the lowest rated component in the system. Thule does not have a jack mount or spare tire mount for this basket. I cannot say whether or not other brands will be compatible with the basket. The Yakima baskets # Y07070 and # Y07080, can...

  • Does Yakima Extension for MegaWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Basket # Y07082 Add Weight Capacity
  • Adding the Extension for Yakima MegaWarrior Roof Rack Cargo Baskets # Y07082 to the MegaWarrior basket # Y07080 will give you additional space for cargo but does not increase the weight capacity. This is because the limiting factor for cargo weight is not the basket but rather your vehicle's roof rack or its actual roof. The Yakima basket is made of strong tubular steel and it can hold far more weight than your roof. The 130-lb capacity of the standard MegaWarrior remains the limit for...

  • Rola Roof Cargo Basket Overhangs Crossbar on 2013 Honda Pilot
  • Ideally you would want a wider crossbar spread to support the weight more evenly when using a cargo basket. As long as the bulk of the weight is more centered, the overhang should not be a problem. Make sure though that the weight in the basket is within the rack and roof capacities, which ever is lower. The vehicle roof rack and roof capacities may be in the owners manual or could be obtained by contacting Honda.

  • Does the Weight of Thule Cargo Basket Count Towards the Roof/Roof Rack Capacity
  • First, the Thule Canyon XT # TH859XT doesn't weigh 150 pounds. It has a weight capacity of 150 pounds. The basket weighs 19 pounds. So 165 minus 19 is 146 pounds which is just 4 pounds short of the basket's capacity. Not too shabby.
