Yakima Permanent Base Racks
When to use Yakima Permanent Base Racks:
Yakima permanent mount roof base racks should be used if your vehicle doesn't have a standard mounting point for a roof rack. For example, if your truck has a canopy or tonneau cover or you have a vehicle with a camper shell, Permanent Base Racks will create a solid mounting point. Yakima Permanent Base Racks create a location for you to mount Yakima Control Towersd or With Raingutters Towers, to which you can attach Yakima cross bars and support a full Yakima multipurpose system.
How to use Yakima Permanent Base Racks:
Yakima Permanent Base Racks attach directly to your vehicle. Often, drilling is required and, as their name suggests, these are designed as permanent roof rack solutions for vehicles that do not otherwise have the ability to support a roof rack. To your Yakima Permanent Base Rack, you will attach Yakima Control Towers or Raingutter Towers. These will allow you to attach load bars and then select your roof carrier, roof bag or roof rack.
How to ensure a Proper Fit:
Yakima makes a number of different Permanent Base Racks and all are dependant upon the vehicle. Ensuring the proper Permanent Base Rack is relatively easy: only use one of these foot packs if the Yakima Fit Guide suggests that you need to or if none of the other Yakima base rack options will work for you.
