Flexible Track Rack System for Curved Roof
Question:
Im looking for a rack that I can mount on the roof of my 1939 ford sedan delivery. It has a curve of about 1.5 inches of curve in 46 inches length. Will the tracks bend enough to accommodate this much curve with out hampering the ability to mount and slide the cross bar mounts?

Expert Reply:
You will be able to mount the tracks of the Yakima 42" Tracks for Roof Racks # Y01127 on your 1939 Ford Sedan and still be able to move the crossbars around in order to adjust the spacing during crossbar mounting. The tracks are made of a light weight aluminum that can be bent enough to match the contour of your roof.
To make a complete roof rack system, you will need two pair of the Landing Pad 1 # Y00221, along with four of the Yakima Control Tower # Y8890027 and 2 round bars like the 58 inch # Y00409, 66 inch # Y00410, or 78 inch # Y00411, depending on how wide your roof is.
