Will the Thule Stacker Kayak Carrier # TH830 Fit on a 2006 Nissan Xtrail

Question:

I have a factory made roof rack on my 2006 Nissan Xtrail. Is it possible to install 2 - TH830 on this? We have a Delta kayak that is 24inch wide and a Wilderness that is 30inch wide. Thank you!!. Your site is great!!! Keep up the good work!

The Stacker Rooftop Multi-Kayak Carrier part # TH830 that you referenced fits crossbars up to 3" wide. You will want to measure the crossbars on your 2006 Nissan Xtrail. If they are less than 3" wide, the Stacker will fit.

If your Nissan Xtrail has factory-installed side rails and not crossbars, I recommend the Thule SquareBars # TH712100 and the Thule Evo Raised Rail Feet # TH710401. This rack is compatible with part # TH830. The carrier has a load capacity of up to 4 kayaks.

You should check the weight capacity of your vehicles roof before you load any cargo to prevent damage. The roof weight capacity should be located in your owner's manual.

I have included a link to a FAQ about roof-mounted watersport carriers as well as a video review of the Stacker Rooftop Kayak Carrier.
