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.

I spy a Volvo XC90 hitch mount bike rack and roof kayak rack using the Yakima FullSwing 4 hitch bike rack, which has been replaced with the Yakima SwingDaddy hitch mounted bike rack for four bikes and two sets each of the Yakima HullyRollers kayak rollers and the Yakima Mako Saddles kayak saddles mounted to the Yakima LowRider base system, which has been replaced with the Yakima RailGrab System.
This Volvo XC90 bike and kayak rack has the right idea. Using the Yakima FullSwing 4 bike rack (no longer available, replaced with the Yakima SwingDaddy hitch bike rack) installed into the 2″ receiver hitch, access to the rear of the vehicle is not an issue, even when the rack is loaded with four bikes. Mounted to the Volvo XC90 factory side rails is the Yakima LowRider rail system (like the FullSwing 4, it too has been disctontinued and is now the Yakima RailGrab System). For carrying two kayaks, there are two sets each of the Yakima HullyRollers kayak rollers and the Yakima Mako Saddles kayak saddles.

This was shot in Bar Harbor, ME, a tourist destination if there ever was one. This Honda CRV kayak rack and luggage rack has the right idea for carrying toys and gear for a great vacation. Starting with the Thule 460 Podium base rack with Thule Fit Kit 3042 for direct installation using the Honda CRV fixed mounting points. Lots and lots of gear must be inside the Thule 687XT Atlantis 1800 roof box which boasts 18 cubic feet of storage space. Finally, the Thule 887XT SlipStream kayak carrier allows easy loading and unloading of a single kayak.

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.
