3rd gen roof rack ?s

[Nickp_]

Anybody have a kayak transportation roof rack set up? I'd like to know what size and brand cross bars to look into. (3rd gen)

I just put mine on directly to the crossbars. I have not tried to put two boats on though.

I just put mine on directly to the crossbars.

And they support alright? Do you use the j-bars?and how heavy are your kayaks? Thanks

Nick my boat is 40 pounds and I invert it directly onto the factory crossbars, I do not yet have the special kayak bars, sorry.

The Explorer cross bar system can support up to 100lbs.
