Title: WTB kayak rack for my Toyota truck
Post by: Sailfish on March 03, 2015, 08:26:32 AM
Hi guys,

I'm looking to buy a rack to carry the kayaks for my pick-up truck with camper shell.  Let me know if you have a spare/used one that you want to sell.

Thanks,

Sonny

Thanks for the offer GB.  Unfortunately my pickup truck only has the ball type for towing not the square tube type that the Dry Dock can fit on.  I think I'll need something like the one in the attached picture.

I think I have some Thule towers around here somewhere. You would still need to buy the rails for the side of the shell and the bars. I will look in a little bit for the towers. I may have some Yakima towers here too. I have bars for them too. Give me 10-20 mins.

I have 4 Thule rail mount towers. No bars or shell mounts.

Sonny, I have set of Yakima racks with your name on it. I got a new set and saved these to forward to someone here with the need. 58" round bars & Q-towers. You'd probably have to get Control Towers & Landing Pads to mount to the shell but the whole set is yours if you want it.

Thanks guys.  If you plan to attend the HOW on 3/14 at Lake Hennessy please bring it with you.   I have a brand new ski rack set and will bring it if one of you guys want it. (see attached picture).

Sonny,
Get a hitch receiver installed so you can pull Dave's trailer and use the Dry Dock racks.

Looks like they're the right mounting for camper shell!

Sonny, I can't make it to the next HOW event someone else might be able to stop by & pick up the bars. I'll ask Marv if he's going.

Eric, do you have lock cores with the towers? If not, the cores can be pulled from the old Q-towers I have.

Sonny,
Get  a  2" ball n your bumper too, your truck should have a 4 ping wiring system with it. you never know when you will need to tow a trailer.
The trailer is so light that you don't need the square hitch and you may need to tow a trailer when you take out your adventure island.

I think the truck I bought already has a 2" ball installed.  Will double check the ball size later.

Thanks Piski.  I think with the bars from you, I'll have everything needed to mount the rack on my truck.
