Cool, found a used set Ill pick up.

Also, found used hully rollers, figured I would put them all the way on the back bar for easier loading. That kayak is around 80-90 lbs and my FJ is lifted a little. Definitely going to have to practice a few times.

I can get my PA on top of my tahoe. It's doable. I decided to just use my utility trailer because it was a pain. It's definitely possible to get heavier yaks up there, just not ideal. Also, when I was at Masseys, I was informed most of the yak rack systems are rated for around 75 lbs. Not that they cant handle it, but you may want to double check that.

Get the Thule water slide and it will help with loading and unloading. I use one to get my yak on top of my expedition. Protects the boat and truck

Bottom grips truck to keep it in place and top lets kayak slide on it easily
