Recommended Roof Rack and Bike Rack for 2019 Ford F-350 Crew Cab

Question:

Hi guys. I have a new 2019 Ford F-350 Crew Cab and needing to transport my bikes. Hitch is out of the question because I tow here and there. Looking at a roof rack and bike rack combo. Can you give me a recommendation? Thanks!

We have everything you need to secure your bikes on the roof of your 2019 Ford F-350 Crew Cab.

Starting with the roof rack I recommend the Yakima JetStream System. This consists of Black # Y00426 aluminum JetStream Crossbars, the BaseLine Towers # Y28TR, and the BaseClip Fit Kit # Y06185. This will provide you with a really sleek, aerodynamic system for a quiet ride and better fuel efficiency when compared to round or square bar racks.

I have attached a short video demonstration that you can also check out.

Then for a bike rack that will work great with these bars on your truck I recommend taking a look at the Yakima FrontLoader # Y02103. I really like the wheel-mount design on this rack that avoids any frame contact and it's adjustable arms that ensure a fit over any tire. The rack also features an integrated lock to secure the bike to the rack and help deter theft.

I have again attached a video demonstration that you can check out.

Since the roof of your F-350 is going to sit pretty high one other item you might be interested in is the Camco Folding Step # CAM43672. This is a small but sturdy stool that you can use to assist with loading and unloading your bikes. It features a foldable design that allows it to be easily transported and stored when not in use.
