Is There a Kayak Carrier that Fits the Thule TracRac Ladder Rack Load Bars
Question:
I have just purchased and installed a Thule Sliding TracRac. Are there adapter kits that I can use to fit my Thule Hull-a-Port and other kayak carriers/racks with this ladder rack? Thanks for your great products and great customer service.

Helpful Expert Reply:
The Thule TracRac Sliding Ladder Racks like part # TH43002XT-501 that you referenced have much thicker bars than standard roof racks to allow them to have higher weight capacities. This prevents roof accessories that normally mount by wrapping around the bars from fitting but if the rack can attach via a top channel it would still fit. While there isn't a way to adapt what you have to fit this style of rack we do have the option of the Rhino Rack kayak carrier # RR580 which can fit the channels and work well though. This would be the best overall option.
