Yakima recommends the 60" Jetstream Crossbars for the BS. If you buy the Yakima kit from Ford, you'll get the 60" bars. For what I carry, they were too big for me; I wanted the 50" bars. I asked Rack Attack (a Yakima Dealer) to install the 50" for me, but they couldn't because it was "not recommended" by the manufacturer. Not sure why... The Thule's are 53"?
For anyone thinking about getting the Yakima Timberline Towers and the 50" Jetstream bars, here's the measurements I came up with. This is with the Bars mounted directly over the screws on the inside of each of the siderails front and back:

- The front bars have a 1.25 inch overhang on each side, when measured as shown.
- The rear bars have a 3.25 inch overhang on each side.
