For carrying your kayak to and from the water when
bar space and extra cash are in short supply, look no further than the Sport
Rack abr511 Kayak Carrier J Stacker for Car Roof Racks. This J
style kayak cradle set is built by Thule, and is very similar to the
Thule Hull-a-Port. The mounting hardware is incredibly easy to work
with, you'll only need to tighten two wingnuts on each cradle to mount
the J Stacker on your Thule, Yakima, or factory installed roof rack
crossbars.
If Thule's fit guide shows that their 835 Hull-a-Port will fit your
base rack, then the J Stacker will work for you as well. For thicker
factory bars, the Thule
Xadapt3 Adapter Kit provides longer mounting bolts(sold
separately). Its space saving design takes up as little as 13" of bar
space on your roof rack, giving you plenty of room to carry other gear
even on top of smaller vehicles. The Sport Rack J Stacker includes
everything you'll need to carry one boat, including load straps and
bow/stern tiedown ropes. The J Stacker is a quality kayak
rack at a great price, so if you need a new set of cradles for your
boat, check it out at rackwarehouse.com today!
Yakima has always had rock-solid options for putting crossbars on your vehicle's factory installed rails. Their LowRider and LowRider Max rack systems fit most vehicles with raised rails and the Locking EZ Rider towers fit most vehicles with flush rails. But now, Yakima has one tower system that works on both types of factory rails, the RailGrab. With the new Yakima 0138 RailGrab Towers for Railing Mounted Car Roof Racks , you can put Yakima crossbars on practically any factory installed rails, but this isn't your usual One Size "Fits" All situation. You truly get a custom fit for your rack, and if you buy a new vehicle, or you want to swap your rack between two vehicles, you'll still get a great, low-profile rack that fits like a glove regardless of factory rail type or size. Installing Railgrab towers won't take very long. For the front crossbar, first slide two towers onto the bar and install the end caps to keep the towers from sliding off. Then
