Will an Older Yakima FatCat 6 Ski Carrier Fit a 2014 Jeep Cherokee Roof Rack

Question:

Will the FatCat 6 fit on my 2014 jeep Cherokee? A friend bought one from you, now it does not appear to be available after they went to the evo model. I’ll buy his used one if it fits so he can upgrade he will buy through you.

There were several versions of the FatCat ski carrier. If the one you are looking at was designed to fit elliptical/aero bars then it will fit the roof rack on your 2014 Jeep Cherokee. If it has the small mounting hardware for just Yakima round bars or square/rectangular bars then it will not fit.

You have a golden opportunity to one-up your buddy though and leave him with the previous generation carrier. Go with the FatCat Evo 6 # Y03096 or the super slick sliver version, # Y03097.

Or really blow his mind by going with the Thule SnowPack Extender # TH7325 which slides out for easy loading and unloading.
