leer roof rack question ?

im confused after seeing so many fit kits ,tower and foots etc, cant really find a guide fit for this , anyway I Just bought a leer camper shell with the rails already installed and im looking into installing a roof rack , please help , thanks in advance .

 

I think the Yakima version are called landing pads. Try look at Yakima website.

 

Can you take a pic of the rails? When I had a leer shell on my old truck the tracks were for Thule, not Yakima. If it's Thule I can probably help you.

 

Thank you

 

I'm pretty sure those are the Thule Tracker II rails that I had. But you may want to look up pics of those rails online and compare to be sure.

If they are, you need 2 things in order to get to the load bars- Thule Tracker II feet, and the TK1 kit which go on the bottom of the feet and attach to the Thule tracks that I assume are in your Leer shell. Then just pick up any square Thule load bars and you're set.

Here's one of many places selling what you need: http://www.backcountryracks.com/thule-tracker-tk-kit.html

 

You should be able to contact Leer with the serial number of your cap to confirm what options you have

 

Thule and Yakima have an agreement to make their stuff cross compatible. So it shouldn't matter and you can find a product from wither manufacturer to fit those tracks.

What you need are called "towers" or "feet".

I agree with the powerful and great OZ-T, you should contact Leer and ask them what the rails are designed for. And if they give you some crap about them only working with Leer roof attachments.. well then you're screwed.

 

As far as I know, Leer has only worked with Thule or possibly Yakima on the tracks. I don't think a "Leer roof attachment" exists. So at least there's that.

 

My Leer has a DeWalt roof rack system but it's not the track style

 

OK I just checked the Leer website and mbroughton02 is correct. Looks like the Thule Tracker II Roof Rack System.

 

Yea , but there's several foot packs the newest is the 460 . But i found some older ones on ebay on the cheap side like the 417's , 419's etc . I wonder if this will fit to with the correct tk kit :/

 

Just bought a Leer cap with the tracks installed. Leer factory installs Thule and ARE installs Yakima. The feet for the track are interchangeable.

 

just found this, homemade roof rack

 

Nooooooo! Don't do it jruba. That is so ghetto. Terrible, I literally can't stand to look at it anymore. That's the kind of crap you expect to see on something like an old Subaru or something.

It is super funny though

 

Legit

 

Yakima makes landing pads that fit. I had the same type on my Jeraco cap. I'll snap a pick of which ones they were, when I get home. Or you can stop by a Yakima dealer and they should have a fit book with pics around the display.

 

My yaki-mex rack just ordered some end cap plugs

 

You'll never get ground effects with that spoiler unless you tilt it 3 degrees.
