Best Roof Rack For A Rooftop Tent On A 2021 Subaru Ascent
Question:
Which crossbars will work on my 2021 Subaru Ascent by mounting on the factory side rails and which will support a roof tent. Thanks
asked by: Michael
Expert Reply:
The best set up for a rooftop tent would be the Yakima JetStream roof rack system because it's easy to use, reliable, and has a weight capacity of 165 lbs. To connect this to the raised rails on your 2021 Subaru Ascent you need the 60" JetStream Crossbars # Y00426 along with the TimberLine Towers # Y33TR.
To add locks to the TimberLine Towers you can do so with the kit # Y07204. This will help prevent a passerby from being able to remove the roof rack easily.
