Yes! I am happy to report that we do carry the Yakima HD Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 78" Long - Qty 2 # Y01159. With these crossbars, it comes with a 500 pound maximum weight capacity. However, it is important to note that when considering a roof rack system, maximum weight capacities are determined by the least-rated component. If you have legs that are rated for 250 pounds, for example, you would adhere to the 250-pound capacity.

If you need a complete setup for your vehicle, feel free to respond with your year/make/model, and I will be happy to recommend our best rack for you.
