Yakima Rack retrofit?

Larry

I want to install a rack system like on the new Outback on my 2014 T@B. It appears that the rack is a standard Yakima Rack. The tracks can be purchased here, http://www.yakima.com/shop/racksystems/permanent-installation/tracks54-w-plusnuts.

Does anyone know if the T@B Max is strong enough to accept the tracks? Was there additional structure added to the Outback roof?

Thanks all!

Larry, that would be a good question for the factory. Call and let whoever answers send your call to the right person. And their hours are 5:30 am to 3:30 pm ET.

I just noticed that the Yakima rack is now showing up on the Store so I have to assume that it can be added. $345 for the rails, $295 for the rack and $89 for the spare tire mount. That's a total of $729 or about $1,000,000 for us in Canada.  

I really like the idea so I am waiting until for the Canadian dollar to increase in value before taking the plunge.
