Will Crossbars Interfere With The Panoramic Sunroof Of A 2023 Ford F-150

Question

Question:

Looking at getting a Yakima Baseline FX roof rack system for my 2023 F150. I have a panoramic sunroof. Would the crossbars interfere with the opening of the sunroof?

Expert Reply:

Yes, any roof rack, including the Yakima BaseLine FX Roof Rack for Naked Roofs # Y56UV, would most likely prevent you from being able to open your panoramic sunroof. Even if the crossbars clear the glass there's always the chance that whatever weight you out on top of them could cause them to dip down enough and touch so roof rack manufacturers don't ever approve of opening the sunroof while the crossbars are installed.

If you'd still like to use these crossbars then you'll also need the BaseClip Fit Kit for Yakima BaseLine Roof Rack Towers # Y27FR in order to mount them on the roof of your 2023 Ford F-150.

Hitch rattle isn't a super common issue but there are some easy ways to relieve the noise. The easiest solution is to bend the exhaust hanger up so that the muffler sets further above the hitch. If bending the hanger does not provide a solution,…

I don't think that your wheel size (or lack thereof) has anything to do with the bearings on your HF trailer drying out as much as it is likely that the seal blew out from overfilling the grease or poor installation. This isn't uncommon when…

From my research on the Harbor Freight 4x8 folding trailer uses 4.80-12 tires on a 12 inch wheel for the 1195 lb capacity trailer and a 5.30-12 for the 1720 lbs capacity trailer. It is a good idea to check your existing tires to see which size they…

I might have a solution for you, but the Yakima Bedrock HD System #Y01160-58 are only compatible with the Yakima HD bars like the #Y01157. The Yakima Bedrock HD, Overhaul HD #Y01151-58 and Outpost HD #Y01152-58 systems are all only compatible with…

You would want to go with a Class S tire cable option like the part #TC3029 that has been confirmed as a fit for your tire size. Class S means the clearances require are less than 15 mm. This would be the best option we have for you to allow for…
