Roof Rack for 2011 Chevy Traverse for Kayak Carriers

Question:

Hello! I am wanting to carry two kayaks on the roof and want to go with two of the Mega sea wings #MPG207. I have a 2011 chevy traverse with solid rails but not C channels or anything else for a roof rack. Can you please let me know if you have a full kit that would work best with the sea wings? Thanks!

Yes, we do have a roof rack that fits your 2011 Chevy Traverse and is compatible with the Malone MegaWing Fishing Kayak Carrier item # MPG207 you referenced. It is the 2011 Chevrolet Traverse Roof Rack by Rhino Rack and it includes:

Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black - 54" Long - Qty 2 item # RRVA137B-2. These slim, elliptical crossbar shape helps to create an aerodynamic system that let you attach a variety of accessories to. These full-length 54" bars extend past the roof rack legs to maximize space for carriers and accessories.

Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars - Naked Roofs or Fixed Mounting Points - Qty 4 item # RRRLKVA. These four legs help to mount Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero crossbars to your Traverse's fixed rails. The Leg bases pivot to ensure the crossbars are level on your roof. The legs include locks so you can secure them to your Traverse.

Custom DK Fit Kit for 4 Rhino-Rack 2500 Series Roof Rack Legs - Naked Roof item # DK297. These molded-rubber pads are custom designed to fit the contours of your roof.

I have linked an installation video and a couple of pictures so you can see what this roof rack will look like installed on your Traverse.

The Malone MegaWing Fishing Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs - V-Style - Clamp On - 150 lbs item # MPG207 will function perfectly with this roof rack system. The mounting hardware will have no problems attaching to the aero crossbars and I have included a review video to demonstrate this. The two load straps with cam buckles will secure the kayaks to your roof rack. The
