How to Carry 2 Canoes Side by Side on a 2014 Nissan Frontier SL with Factory Roof Rack
Question:
My canoe is too wide for the factory rack on 2014 Nissan Frontier SL. Is there an aftermarket crossbar that fits this truck so a wider canoe or even 2 canoes could fit?

Expert Reply:
One option for your 2014 Nissan Frontier is to use a truck bed rack such as # INRT101-65. This system includes bars that are 65 inches long. The canoes would sit on the bars right above the bed and would overhang the rear of the truck with this set up.
Another option is a ladder rack such as # EM07705 with 66-3/8 inch long bars. The bars on these two systems are going to be longer since it sounds like the bars on your Frontier span the distance between the side rails so there is a lot of unused space.
