Roof Rack and Kayak Carrier for 2023 Jeep Gladiator to Carry Two Kayaks

Question

Question:

Hi! I have a 2023 Jeep Gladiator and looking to transport two kayaks 10 and 10.4 on the rooftop. The Gladiator does not come with crossbars so I wanted to know what products I need to make it all work. Thanks!

The Rhino Rack kayak carrier part # S512-S512X would be a great option to carry your two kayaks and then for a roof rack that fits your 2023 Jeep Gladiator the Rhino Rack part numbers # RRVA150S-2, # RRVA-FK1-2, # RRRL110S5-2 would work well as it's a higher quality roof rack at a better price.
