Roof Rack to Carry Two Yakima ShowDown Kayak Carriers on Roof of 2016 Ford Expedition EL
Question:
Looking to use these with two top water 106 kayaks - 73lbs each, 34.5” wide. Would be going on a 2016 Ford Expedition EL. I have factory rails installed but assuming I would need something wider for a pair of kayaks? Will the showdown support kayaks that are 34.5” wide?

Expert Reply:
The ShowDown part # Y04081 has the weight capacity and is wide enough to carry the kayaks you mentioned so it would work well. Then for a wider bar roof rack that fits your 2016 Ford Expedition EL the Thule Rack part numbers # TH711500 and # TH710401 is our longest option at 60 inches that would work well.
