Do the Yakima DeckHand and HandRoll Fit the 2007 Subaru Outback Wagon

Question:

I have a 2007 Subaru outback with factory rails. Can you confirm that this will fit my vehicle. If not, can you please steer me in the right direction. Please also let me know if there are any other accessories/kits I need to purchase in addition to this kit to have a complete setup for my vehicle and my 14.5 foot sit in kayak

I checked with Yakima and the DeckHand and HandRoll, # Y04083-04082, are a fit for the factory roof rack on your 2007 Subaru Outback wagon! The kit also comes with the necessary straps to secure a kayak to your vehicle. If you want to lock the carrier to the roof rack you can add SKS lock cores # Y07204.

This is assuming that the vehicle has the crossbars that run side to side on the vehicle roof and not just the rails that run front to back. If you do not have the crossbars that run side to side then you can add some using Malone roof rack # MPG201.
