I do have the parts you will need to build an additional upright but we do not sell them together. In order to build an additional upright you will need 4 nylon inserts, 2 locking knobs, 2 mounting feet, 2 upright posts, 2 tie down cleats, 1 crossbar, 2 end caps, 2 corner braces, 2 saddles, and 1 hardware kit. I have listed the part numbers for the following items for you below.

Nylon Inserts - part # TAFX-42008 (4)

Locking Knobs - part # TAKB-90030-1 (2)

Right Mounting Foot - part # TA01-42004 (1)

Left Mounting Foot - part # TA01-42003 (1)

Upright Posts - part # TA7521902002 (2)

Tie Down Cleats - part # TA01-27046 (2)

Crossbar - part # TAFX-30007-02 (1)

Corner Braces - part # TA8527813001 (2)

End Caps - part # TA01-27023 (2)

Saddles - part # TA8523444001 (2)

Hardware Kit - part # TA7521653001 (1)
