Yakima rack

[philr21]

I just took my Yakima bars off the back of my truck. I got so sick and tired of my Mako saddles and Hully rollers turning on me all of the time, no matter how tight I tried to make them.

I replaced with a Thule Xsporter 300. Adjustable height, much nicer, much happier. Only problem, my attachments no longer fit. So I had to order the brackets/adapter for the Hully rollers and I ordered the Mako Aero saddles for the front, no adapter required.

Not carrying two kayaks, just an X-Factor, but pretty sure the bars are wider than the Yakima 58" bars.

i just ordered a kit for the car couple hours ago, although whispers bars, and evenkeels....heard they work.
thukima and yakule both have them J cradle things, i believe for all bar types. designed for multiple rig transport.

I just installed a luggage rack on my shell Saturday night and made a cradle for my kayak out of ABS plastic pipe that I shaped to custom fit my Malibu Stealth. A couple of the guys who saw it in Dana Point last weekend liked it.
If its something that your interested in let me know and I'll send you some pictures.
