2 Kayaks on Roof of Ford F-150 SuperCrew Cab with 5.5' Bed

Question:

I need a way to carry two twelve foot kayaks on a 2019 F150 Super Crew while towing a travel trailer. Because of the trailer the kayaks can overhang the back of the truck no more than 3’. The bed is 66”. Is there a roof rack option or do I need to go with a bed rack? The roof is currently bare.

We can get you on your way to adventure quickly using a roof mount system to put your two kayaks on your 2019 Ford F-150 with SuperCrew cab and 5.5' bed. You will first need roof cross rails installed. I recommend the Rhino-Rack crossbars # RRVA150B-2. You will additionally need Rhino-Rack # RRRLKVA legs and Rhino-Rack # DK427 Fit Kit to complete the crossbar installation. I have quoted the black crossbars - If you prefer silver specify RRVA150S-2 instead of RRVA150B-2. I have attached links to all of these items and to an installation video.

These crossbars are low-profile, slim and will not generate as much wind noise as larger square or round crossbars. Many customers find the bars to be sporty enough to leave on full time.

Next you will need the etrailer J-Style Kayak Carrier # e98878. Don't forget you need two sets for your two kayaks. I prefer the etrailer carrier as it has all the tie down straps you will need including the padded hood anchor point which I would prefer in a pickup installation.
