Can the Yakima Tracks for Roof Racks Be Trimmed
Question:
Hi can these tracks be cut to length on the open end? I wish to mount them to my fiberglass camper shell ARE MX Walk in door for my Toyota Tundra. The surface area on the the camper roof is curved in some areas and I may need a shorter run for everything to sit in plane. Can I cut the tracks cleanly to length and remount the end caps if I have to?

Expert Reply:
I can't see why you wouldn't be able to cut the Yakima 54" Tracks for Roof Racks # Y26RR if need be. As long as you're able to cut it cleanly to where the end cap would fit back in place as it was before, you'll be good to go.
We also have shorter tracks, # Y01126, which are 42" long which might be better suited for you.
