Most Popular Adjustable Height for 2020 Ram 1500

Delivery - quick An incredibly strong rack. The adjustable height feature, very useful. It lets me put the kayak just inches above the roof. Look at them all, then buy a Yakima !

The rack is great. Simple to install, extremely sturdy & very well designed. I drove it to Cars & Coffee yesterday & someone asked me what I needed to haul or if I merely installed them "because they look cool." The young lady, Janeth, that helped me was really great! Smart, polite, patient, & above all... knowledgeable about product. I would suggest selling the rack specific for Retrax bed cover. The amount of hardware left over when you add the adapter kit to the standard rack seems really excessive. Rather than be $169 add, it should be a deduct of at least that much.

Ability to raise and lower the rack is very useful. It allows me to keep the boats as low to the ground/truck cab as possible for easier loading/unloading. I can raise the rear rack and load a motorcycle without removing it. I have removed the endcaps and run straps through the crossbars and was able to load two 17 aluminum canoes at once. Note, the endcaps are a bit delicate and extremely expensive to replace!

I recently made a 4 hour trip home after picking up a new kayak while using the following equipment for the first time: Thule Xsporter Pro Truck Bed Ladder Rack, Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier w/Tie-Downs - J-Style, Thule Watersports Adapter for Aeroblade/Aeroblade Edge Bars and Thule Bow/Stern Tie-Downs. I'm impressed with the performance of all of those components.

These Yakima Overhaul HD truck are outstanding! As a Mechanical engineer I can appreciate good quality workmanship and we'll engineers products. This rack system is certainly well engineered and we'll made. The installation was straight forward and the instructions are well writing. Less than hour to install and Yakima provides all the required tools. As for the etrailer folks, well I couldn't be more pleased. Easy to order and the order tracking was really cool. You were able to see your order as it traveled from eTrailer to your home. Everyone I dealt with at etrailer was very helpful. I'll be placing another order soon!!!

I've owned this truck for just over one year and had the kayak about the same amount of time. Due to the short bed, hauling the kayak in my bed was not an option. This meant I had to pull my trailer to the river/lake any time we wanted to take the kayaks out. I got this rack for my birthday and integrates perfectly with the Retrax bed cover. Just need the weather to get warmer now so we can take the kayaks out. the rack fits perfectly, it was a breeze to install. Everything lined up and installed exactly how it was illustrated. The etrailer team kept me informed on my shipment and it was delivered quickly. This is a great option supplied from a great company.

I purchased this ladder rack to primarily be a kayak hauler, but also to transport oversized materials, like lumber that doesn't fit well in the cargo bed. What I like best about it is that Yakima makes a kit to mount the rack directly on the T-slot rails on my Roll-n-Lock XT Retractable Tonnaeu Cover. I can mount or dismount the rack in about 10 minutes by myself as needed (a little easier with a helper). The build quality is excellent and is a very solid rack. It offers plenty of anchor points, plus T-slots on the top and bottom of the crossbars. There's some wind noise at higher speeds, but not to terrible. I highly recommend thus product, and is worth the money, especially if you invested in the Roll-n-Lock XT or Retrax XR Retractable Tonnaeu Covers.

Very happy this product so far. The adapter kit worked great to mount them on my retrax bed cover. I have been hauling up to 2 kayaks and a rod rack on them and they work great. Very solid and they are the best looking racks I have seen on the road.

Works seamlessly with the retrax rollup cover and not too hard to install. Adjusting the height takes a little bit of work but that is only done on a very limited basis. Allows me to carry my kayaks, a cargo box if I need extra space or paddles & fishing rods so they don't get damaged by closing the tailgate on them.

The rack is great. I have added kayak and paddle holders to it. Rotopax cans and just recently added Roam case mounts to it. All bolted up with no problems and the racks adjustability made it even easier. No complaints 1 year in. Finish has no defects. Had held up to light off road use.
