Can Two Kayaks Be Carried on Adarac Ladder Rack of 2017 Ram 1500

Question:

Hello: I plan to carry two 10foot kayaks and possibly 13foot in the future on an ADARAC A4000444 ladder rack system with my 2017 Ram 1500 6.4foot bed with BakFlip folding tonneau cover... often while pulling a Casita travel trailer. Two questions: 1 Can two kayaks be attached to the rack system? I see the INNO Locker INXA445 strap system, but it only looks like one boat can be attached. Is there an option or product for two? 2 Does ADARAC make a black system instead of silver? I saw somewhere that it could be painted, but it seems like a factory black system would be best. Then again, I could always get it powder-coated - would that work? Thanks,

The Inno kayak carrier part # INXA445 can fit the top channel of the Adarac Aluminum Series truck bed ladder rack part # A4001219 that you referenced. To carry two kayaks you'd want two of the racks which the bars would easily accomodate since they are plenty long.

Adarac does not offer a black version of this rack. If you wanted to paint you could but powder coat would be the most durable and what I'd recommend.
