Kayak Rack and Roof Rack Recommendation for a 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
Question:
I have a 2016 Soft Top Jeep Wrangler Unlimited and I am wanting to buy a kayak for the summer. Can you give some examples products that I can use for strapping the kayak on the Wrangler? Thanks!

Yakima also offers a roof rack solution. Crossbars can be installed using the Yakima 58 inch crossbars, part # Y00409 and Rain Gutter Towers, part # Y00101. However, this rack can only be used when the soft top is removed. With the soft top on there are no solutions we can provide.
I would recommend the Thule Stacker Kayak Carrier, part # TH830 for use with this rack.
