Does Custom DK Fit Kit DK227 For 2012 GMC Sierra 2500 Crew Cab Only Fit Locations in Video

Question

Question:

DK227 fit for 2012 GMC 2500HD Crew cab? Does this fit only in the locations measured in the 2010 Silverado 1500 crew cab video? I will be using 1-RRVA180B with RRRLKVA in the forward position over the drivers door with a front hitch mounted t-bar supporting the front of 2 kayaks. Thank you, Tom

The locations in the installation video are for the proper spacing of the crossbars for a Rhino-Rack roof rack, but the Custom DK Fit Kit for 4 Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack Legs - Naked Roof # DK227 does not only fit that specific location.

So it can be moved a bit and still clamp onto your 2012 GMC 2500's door jamb. I have added a link below to the installation video for you as well as the instructions if you'd like to take a look.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
