Can I use Yakima SmarT-Slot Kit in Thule Xsporter Crossbar
Question:
Does the SmarT-Slot Kit 2 fit the Thule Xsporter Pro? The strap bindings that come with the Fatcat Evo 6 are too short to wrap around the cross bars.

Expert Reply:
Yes, you can use the the SmarT-Slot Kit 2 part # Y03098 to mount your FatCat EVO part # Y03096 to the T-slots in the Thule Xsporter crossbars. I went to the warehouse and tested the Yakima bolt in the T-slots of a Thule Xsporter bar and it fit perfectly. You can use the Yakima SmarT-kit 2 in any Thule Xsporter bar T-slot.
The FatCat EVO part # Y03095 fits crossbars up to 3-7/16 inches wide by 1-1/2 inches tall. The Crossbars of the Thule Xsporter ladder rack are 3-1/3" inches wide by 1-1/2 inches tall, so the FatCat mounting system does not fit around the bars.
