FAQ

1. How do I know which roof rack fits my vehicle?

Roof racks are vehicle-specific, so the right setup depends on your make, model, year, and roof type. At Wilderness Supply, we help you choose the correct bars, towers, fit kits, and accessories for a secure and proper fit.

2. Do you offer roof rack installation in Winnipeg?

Yes. We offer professional roof rack installation at our Winnipeg store. Our team will make sure your rack system is fitted correctly and ready to safely carry your bikes, kayaks, cargo box, skis, canoe, or other gear.

3. What can I carry on a roof rack?

A roof rack can be used to carry bikes, kayaks, canoes, stand-up paddleboards, skis, snowboards, cargo boxes, roof baskets, and other outdoor gear. The best setup depends on your vehicle, the type of gear, and how often you plan to use it.

4. Do I need cross bars to carry a cargo box?

Yes! You do need cross bars. If you have parallel cross bars that are factory installed already, you can secure a luggage box to those existing bars. We will always inspect the quality and strength of these factory bars before installing to to ensure you feel comfortable loading all your valuables on to your existing rack.

5. Can you help me choose the best roof rack for my needs?

Absolutely. Our staff can help you compare roof rack options based on your vehicle, your budget, and the gear you want to transport. We want to make sure you leave with a system that works well, fits properly, and is easy to use.
