Yakima 8880159 End Caps are now available for use with the extra-long Yakima Racks 86 inch length round cross bars.

Folks purchasing the extra-long Yakima 86″ cross Bars (mainly for use on pop up camper roof racks etc) are discovering that the normal Yakima End Caps for cross bars will not work on these thicker and beefier 86 inch length round bars. Instead, Yakima Racks now has available the Yakima 8880159 End Caps, made specifically for use with the 86″ length crossbars. They will not owrk on the shorter length Yakima round bars. For those you will need the regular Yakima 8007026 End Caps. It is a very good idea to use end caps, as they extend the life of the crossbars by working to prevent rust from forming on the bars. They also provide a nice and clean finished appearance for your roof rack system.
