Expert Reply:
I recommend going with the Rhino-Rack 1-bar roof rack and T-Loader for your 2021 Ram 3500, along with a front mount hitch and 2 of our J-Style carriers. Here are the parts you'll need:
Rhino-Rack Setup
59" Vortex Aero Crossbar - # RRVA150B
2500 Series Legs - # RRRLKVAH
Fit Kit - # DK043H
T-Load - # RTL002
Front Mount Hitch - # EH37FR
Kayak Carrier - # e98878 (x2)
I like this system because it gives you everything you need, the EcoHitch from mount hitch has a nice, hidden design, and the etrailer carrier is really hard to beat as far as features vs price-point.
I'm attaching review videos for you to check out.
