Roof Rack and Assisted Kayak Carrier Recommendation for 2017 Ford Edge with Glass Roof  

Question:

I need a roof rack and carrier to accommodate 2 kayaks, if possible. I have a 2017 Ford Edge with glass panoramic roof. I would like to know if a product exists and who could install it. it seems Yakima may have a product for me, but cant confirm from product descriptions. even better, if there is a rack unit that provides side lift or roller accommodations for loading kayaks. thank you

We have roof racks that are a confirmed fit for your 2017 Ford Edge that has the panoramic glass roof. The Rhino Rack part numbers # RRVA137B-2, # RRRLKVA, and # DK432 is a fit for if you have a totally naked roof without side rails.

If instead you do have side rails you'd want the Rhino Rack part numbers # RRVA126B-2 and # RRSX024 and you'd be set.

Then for a load assiste kayak carrier the Thule Hullavator part # TH898 is the best option. It allows you to easily load and carry a kayak. Check out the review video I attached for more info. This is a side mount that uses assisted shocks to help with the lifting. You'd only have room for one of these though since they require 28.5 inches of bar space.
