Yakima FlushBar and Inno Wedge 660 Box Height Clearance on 2018 Volkswagen Atlas
Question:
Hi, Wondering what the height would be above the level of the factory side raised rails for the Yakima Flushbar w/ their K328 fitkit. I'm trying to also add an Inno wedge 660 box and have about 84 inches max to play with in total. The car is supposedly 70 inches tall, leaveing less than 14. So would the Flushbar and the Inno wedge shortest box at 11 inches tall, right? fit? Thanks!

It sounds like you're trying to determine if this box and roof rack installed on your vehicle will clear your garage opening. So, I reached out to Inno for you and was able to confirm that the Inno Wedge 660 Rooftop Cargo Box # INBRM660BK adds exactly 9.6 inches of height from the top of your crossbars while the overall box height is 11 inches. The design of the box is slightly recessed on the bottom center portion.
I also took a measurement and found that the Yakima FlushBar Crossbars # Y00458-2 will sit at a height of approximately 2-1/2 inches above your factory rails. The correct fit kit for your 2018 Atlas with factory raised rails is the K328 Custom Fit Kit for Yakima FlushBar Crossbars part # Y00158 K328 you referenced.
Since you also mention your car is "supposedly" 70 inches tall and this could be from the ground to the top of the roof, I would strongly suggest taking a quick measurement from ground to the top of your side rails instead. If this measurement is less than 72 inches, the Inno Box on the Yakima roof rack will clear the 84 inches you have available.
