Low-Profile Roof Rack Crossbars for a 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser with Factory Roof Rack

Question:

Im finding that the TH7325 straps dont quite fit around the OEM crossbars on my 2014 FJ Cruiser. Im interested in finding the lowest profile height Thule cross bars and bases? Ill need to mount the product. Can you advise?

Thule shows the SnowPack ski carrier # TH7325 as a fit to the factory crossbars on your 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser so its strange that it isn't working. Before going through the expense of alternate bars first make sure that the straps on the carrier are all the way out. There might be a little slack left over to work with.

If it still doesn't work then the most low-profile bars that will fit the vehicle are the AeroBlade Edge bars, # TH7502-TH7503 for silver or # TH7502B-TH7503B for black for models that have the factory side rails that run front to back on the roof.

Rhino-Rack bars # JA7972 or # JA7953 are another option and similar to the AeroBlade Edge system.

I have a 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser with factory rack . I also have 4 Yakima kayak curved braces with mounts for a 3/4” pipe . Are there mounts that fit my factory rack ?

From what Yakima says the Universal MightyMounts # Y03590 can be used for the OEM roof rack on your 2014 FJ Cruiser. These allow you to install some of the Yakima products to crossbars that are no more than 4" wide or 1-1/2" tall. If you can let me know what exact Yakima kayak carrier you have I can see if these are compatible.
