Quality photo of a 2006 Nissan Frontier kayak roof rack and pickup truck bed bike rack using the Yakima Railgrab Towers with 58" Crossbars on factory side rails and Yakima HullyRollers and Mako Saddles kayak rack combo with Yakima Locking BedHead bike carrier.
Call this one “surf n turf” if you like, or call it a great use of racks for carrying your gear with the purpose of having fun. Whatever you call it, this 2006 Nissan Frontier kayak roof rack and pickup truck bed bike rack set up is using the Yakima Railgrab Roof Rack Kit (which comes with 58″ crossbars) attached to the Nissan Frontier factory siderails, and mounted to the cross bars is the kayak carrying combo of the Yakima HullyRollers kayak rollers with Yakima Mako Saddles kayak saddles. A Yakima SKS 4 pack lockpack keeps the rack system locked securely down. In the pickup truckbed is the Yakima Locking BedHead truck bike rack (locks included) mounted to the bed rails. Someone knows how to rack up and how to have fun, and that would be this guy.
Complete install details for the 2006 Nissan Frontier kayak roof rack and truckbed bike rack.
