Thule Kayak Carriers And TracRac Compatibility
Question:
Do you have a list of Thule or other brand kayak racks that are confirmed to fit this Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack? Looking to carry between 2-4 kayaks, so something that keeps them more vertical would be preferred.

Expert Reply:
Since the crossbars on your Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack, part # TH43002XT-501, are larger than traditional crossbars you will have to attach your kayak carrier to the channel on the crossbar. I recommend the Rhino-Rack Nautic Stack Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs - Post Style - Folding - 4 Kayaks, part # RRS520 . This option will allow you to carry the kayaks vertically. You will have to be comfortable carrying your kayaks on the side. With this item you will be able to carry up to four kayaks, two on each side.
You can also carry kayaks vertically with a j-cradle, but you will only be able to carry three kayaks due to space constraints. If this is your preference I recommend the Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier w/Tie-Downs - J-Style - Fixed - Side Loading, part #TH834, and the Watersports Adapter for Aeroblade/Aeroblade Edge Bars, part # THXADAPT11. This is a traditional J-style boat carrier. It has a load capacity of 75lbs. You would use the Xadapt11 hardware in place of the hardware that comes with the Hull-A-Port.
