Most Popular Roller System for 2022 Jeep Gladiator

I put the rollers on a strong arm loader it Works great, the loader fits a 2in receiver it pulls backwards at a 45 degree angle and it is springs loaded you put the kayak onto it then go to the back of the kayak push forward and the kayak is at a 45 degree angle in the air then you push it's on the rollers and stop when you get where you want it let it down gently a d that's it ,take it off in reverse thanks to the wheels it makes it very easy

These Handrolls were a replacement for ones about 30 years old which worked great but the rubber/plastic was degraded by the sun and the degraded plastic would get on the kayaks. The wheels of the new HandRolls do not turn well, even with an overabundance of Silicon lubricant sprayed inside. They worked very poorly in loading my kayaks. They will soon join their brethren in the dumpster.

I received the rollers and locks yesterday, mounted today and loaded my kayak. All-in-all, the rollers work pretty well but but I do think that the rollers are over-priced for what you get. So, I knocked off a star.

The Yakima roller make it easier to load and secure a kayak to the roof of a 4Runner. The fit is secure enough that I don't need to use bow & stern straps for shorter trips.
