Highest Capacity Rack System for Yakima Tracks on Camper Shell
Question:
Hi, I have a camper shell on my truck with a 500 lb load capacity. It has Yakima 60 inch track system installed. Can you tell me the roof rack system with the highest load capacity that will fit this. I have 2 heavy kayaks I want to load. Thank,

Helpful Expert Reply:
The highest load capacity rack system that you can use with the Yakima 60" Tracks for Roof Racks # Y01135 is the Rhino-Rack Roof Rack for Thule and Yakima Tracks which comes in Black # Y01-120B-NT and has a 220 lb weight capacity.
To carry a pair of heavy kayaks on this rack's 54" long Rhino-Rack HD Crossbars I strongly recommend using two of the Rhino-Rack J-Style Kayak Carriers # S510 or the folding # S512 because they have a 99 lb capacity and using two of these - with one of the J-style carriers on each side of the truck - will make it much easier to load a heavy kayak. Additionally, the single carriers have a much higher weight capacity than the 110 lbs of the 2-Kayak Carrier.
You will need the Crossbar Adapters for Rhino-Rack J-Style Kayak Carriers # KC-FK8 with the kayak carriers to mount them on the HD crossbars.
