Yakima Roof Rack - Towers ?

[doublevan2]

Greetings --

My 2002 SMB E350 has an original - to 2002 - Yakima roof rack with 6 towers that attach to the roof rails. They're getting a little bit aged - and unfortunately I don't have a "key" to unlock and adjust the towers. My Yakima setup is the "RailRider" 1 version.

Wondering if anyone out there has such a key and could make a dupe to send to me - or possibly send their key to try the fit ? I know there might be many different keys out there - but if your rack is vintage 2002 - I'm hoping it would be the fit I'm looking for ? I'd cover any postage, etc., if anyone responds ! Appreciate any assistance on this !

Thanks !

Hey DoubleVan2, I recently went through something similar when I picked up a used bed cap for my F150. I went to a "local" REI and they let me take their "master" set of keys out to the parking lot and run through an assortment until I found the one that matched. For about $15 I left with two keys and a blank to allow me to pull out the cores. Any Dealer of Yakima racks would probably have a similar key assortment to try.

Good luck!
