Stellar example of 1998 Saturn SL2 kayak roof rack with Yakima Q tower complete roof rack system (includes Yakima Q Towers, Yakima Q67 and Q68 clips and pair of cross bars) and Yakima Mako Saddles for carrying 2 Kayaks side by side and flat.
This rack install example of a 1998 Saturn SL2 kayak roof rack system using the Yakima Q Towers Roof Rack system (includes Yakima Q Towers, Yakima Q67 clips and Yakima Q68 clips and pair of cross bars) and 2 complete sets of Yakima Mako Saddles for carrying 2 kayaks comes from an outdoor enthusiast in Iowa. A pair of 58 inch crossbars (included with the Yakima Q Tower car rack system) are the correct length for carrying 2 Kayaks side by side and flat. The Yakima Mako Saddles kayak carrying attachment comes in pairs – it is necessary to use 1 pair for the front crossbar and 1 pair for the rear crossbar for EACH kayak – so in this case 4 pairs are used. Don’t forget a 4 pack of Yakima locks – these 4 Yakima lock cores will make sure this super kayak rack set up stays in your possession.

Photo of Yakima Q Towers, Q129 Clips and 48 inch crossbars used as the base rack system for a 2005 Saturn Relay kayak roof rack setup. The SportRack ABR512 kayak saddles are attached to the cross bars.
No problem carrying a kayak on this customer installation of a 2005 Saturn Relay minivan roof rack kayak carrier system. The components used are the Yakima Q Tower car rack system (includes set of four Q Towers, two pairs of Yakima Q129 clips and pair of 48 inch cross rails), which serves as the versatile multi-purpose base rack system. The SportRack ABR512 kayak rack saddles are then mounted to the base rack cross rails. Not shown in the image above is the very sweet Thule 854 Water Slide Mat accessory for protecting the rear of the Saturn Relay minivan and also assisting in loading the kayak up onto the kayak roof rack saddles.
