Glorious shot of a 2009 Subaru WRX kayak rack using Thule 835XTR Hullaport kayak racks attached directly to '09 Subaru WRX factory aero crossbars.
I get a lot of questions from customers asking if they can carry two kayaks on the roof of their car using their factory crossbars. The answer is generally yes, as long as you use the appropriate kayak carriers. This 2009 Subaru WRX factory rack mount kayak rack set up is using two Thule 835XTR Hullaport kayak carriers. These J-style kayak carriers tilt the boats on their side to save crossbar space and come with universal mounting hardware to fit to most factory crossbars.

Fantastic shot of a 2008 Toyota Tundra surf board truck rack using the Thule 422XT XSporter truck rack with Thule XK2 XSporter adapters for use with bed mounted rail system. Two Thule 554XT Hang-Two surfboard racks are holdin' down the surfboards.
Although the Thule 422XT XSporter truck rack is designed to carry much heavier loads, there’s no reason it can’t be used to carry lightweight items, such as surfboards. It does a mighty fine job of that in fact, as shown on this 2008 Toyota Tundra double cab surfboard rack set up, which uses the Thule XK2 Adapters for the factory installed bed track system. Two sets of the Thule 554XT Hang-Two surboard carriers keep the boards secured for the trip to the beach.

Scenic shot of a 2008 Nissan XTerra kayak rack using Xterra factory rack with Thule 835XTR Hullaport kayak rack and Thule X-Adapt 3 long bolt kit.
The Nissan XTerra factory crossbars are larger than most factory bars, but does that mean you can’t mount Thule kayak racks directly to them? Absolutely not. You just need a little help from the Thule X-Adapt 3 kit which is simply a long bolt kit that replaces the shorter bolts that come with the Thule 835XTR Hullaport kayak rack. With those in place, this Nissan Xterra kayak rack set up is ready for the water.

This 2008 Toyota Tundra Double Cab Kayak Rack is made possible with the Yakima Q Tower Half Pack System with a pair of Yakima Q99 Clips for the cab, and providing the rear crossbar is the Yakima DryDock hitch rack installed into the receiver hitch. Supporting the kayak are a pair of Yakima Hullyrollers kayak rollers and a pair of Yakima Mako Saddles kayak saddles.
Loaded up with kayaks, this 2008 Toyota Tundra kayak rack is looking mighty fine. Using a combination of rack systems, this set up is ideal for longer loads such as kayaks, canoes, and lumber. On the cab of the ‘08 Tundra is the Yakima Q Tower Half Pack system which is using a pair of Yakima Q99 Q Clips and a 58″ crossbar. For the rear mounted crossbar, the Yakima Dry Dock, also with a 58″ crossbar, has been installed securely into the Tundra’s trailer hitch. Supporting this fine boat is the awesome combo of a pair of Yakima HullyRoller kayak rollers for the rear crossbar and a pair of Yakima Mako kayak saddles for the front crossbar. As for the boat in the bed, not a lot can be said, other than if it were also mounted on the crossbars, there’d be room for a dog named Fred.

Attached to the roundbars is the Yakima Gunwale Brackets canoe rack, which comes with the necessary straps and tie downs.
