It’s nice to have big things. But if you have big things you need somewhere to put them. Yakima’s new heavy-duty LockN’Load base racks can help. With a 75kg load rating (per bar), the racks can increase your carrying capacity and save space in your rig. The aluminium roof bars bolt directly to a low-rise leg with a wide, sturdy base for track and fixed-point vehicle fits. The bars are paired with an aerodynamic airflow diffuser ridge to minimise noise, increase fuel efficiency and stop load slippage. They also come with integrated tie-down points. Plus, they’re compatible with Yakima’s existing accessories. Design can be customised to fit a range of off-road and touring vehicles.
RRP $380-735 (depending on your vehicle.)
