Will the Yakima SkyBox 21 # Y07337 Fit My Factory Crossbars on My 2013 GMC Yukon XL?  

Question:

Hi, Id like to purchase the Yakima Skybox21 #Y07337, but need to make sure that it will fit on the factory rack system on our 2013 GMC Yukon Denali. Its the factory rack system with two factory cross bars. Researching on Yakimas website, it shows that it will not fit my vehicle, but I know of someone with the same vehicle with this exact box mounted on the roof. Can you give some guidance on this please? Id rather not buy a new Yakima rack system in addition to the skybox, as that is more than Im wanting to spend. Thanks!

Expert Reply:

I went ahead and confirmed with Yakima that the SkyBox 21 # Y07337 will indeed fit your factory crossbars on your 2013 GMC Yukon XL. You also have the required crossbar spread (between 24 and 42 inches) to fit the carrier. However, one thing to keep in mind is that you need a length of at least 57 inches from the center of the front crossbar to the line where the roof and hatch meet in order to fully open your rear hatch. In order to confirm for sure that the SkyBox 21 will allow you to open the rear hatch, I recommend that you measure that length. I went ahead and included a picture of that measurement to give you perspective.
