After 20,000mi of hauling and adventuring with this rack, I can confidently say it holds everything down well. The plastic locking mechanism and rubber grips work consistently in the hot desert and up in the cold mountains.

The only thing keeping me from giving a 5-star review is the whistling, which I solved by compressing a foam tile between the rack and bar (photo attached).

I liked them so much I picked up a 2nd awt

Easy installation. Secure. No straps required. Drove 8 hours up to 80 mph, didn’t move.

You can't have anything else on your crossbars if you want to use this rack. The sercurimg bars do not swivel. Target they slide aaaallll the way out then you rotate and put them back in. Very low rent design for the price. Would not recommend.



by:

Great company and customer service. The product was shipped quickly and arrived in a few days. The Lockrack is awesome. I use it for surfboards. It’s so easy to use. I have been using the product for several years and am very pleased with how simple and durable it is.

  • What is Best Roof Rack Accessory Attachment Style
    Hey Brian, most people would agree that the channel mount attachment for roof rack accessories is the best like what the LockRack Watersport Carrier part # LR88FR provides. You get the most secure, cleanest looking, and most confusing to a thief attachment.

  • Are There Examples Of The Lockrack Universal X Watersports Carrier With A Canoe
    Hey Luis, We currently only have pictures of the Lockrack Universal X Watersport Carrier # LR88FR with kayaks, but canoes would fit in this carrier the same way. You'd just need to flip the canoe upside down and get it on the carriers, and then push in the ratcheting arms. Once the arms are locked in place it's not required but, you can add a bit of extra security for the canoe with a bow and stern strap # e36ZR.

  • What is the Difference Between the Lockrack Adjustable Watersport Carrier LR88FR/LR24VR/LR54FR?
    The main difference between the Lockrack Adjustable XL Watersport Carrier # LR54FR & the Lockrack Adjustable Watersport Carrier # LR24VR is going to be the adjustable base range. The # LR24VR has an adjustable base range of 19-11/16" to 25-9/16" wide while it's XL counterpart # LR54FR can adjust from 28" to 48". You are correct, the # LR24VR and # LR88FR are identical apart from the fact that the # LR24VR is meant to work with any crossbars by using the included universal clamping system...

  • Canoe Carrier Recommendation to Mount Into Top Channels of Crossbars
    Hey Roy, great to hear from you again! Yes, we have the Inno Locker # INXA445 as well as the LockRack Series-X # LR88FR which both install into the top channels of crossbars and give you a way to secure a canoe. The Locker comes with a strap while the Series-X has arms that secure the boat instead. I personally like the Series-X a little more because of this.

  • Recommended SUP Carrier To Go On A TruXedo Elevate Rack System TX24NV
    'Sup Kevin (see what I did there?). I do have a solution for you, but the Thule SUP Taxi # TH810001 and the Yakima SUPDawg # Y04075 are not going to work with the TruXedo Elevate Rack System # TX24NV. The TruXedo system has crossbars that are 3.79" wide 1.5" tall. The SUP Taxi and SUPDawg will only work with upto crossbars 3.5" wide. So, the TruXedo bars will be a hair too wide. We do have some good SUP carriers that will work on the TruXedo crossbars. One really good option is the Lockrack...

  • What Kayak Carriers Will Fit The Thule TracRac TracONE Crossbars
    We do offer a few kayak carriers that you can use with the Thule TracRac TracONE Truck Bed Ladder Rack. You will need to use a channel mount carrier. Since the crossbars on the TracOne are a bit oversized, none of the clamp on carriers we sell will fit. I recommend using the Thule Hull-A-Port Aero Kayak Roof Rack # TH849000. This is a J-style carrier which will install into the top channel or T-slots on the Thule crossbars. It also has a built in lock, so you can secure the rack to your...

  • Kayak Carrier Recommendation that Can Fit the T-Slots of Rhino Rack T-Load Bar
    For a kayak carrier that fits the T-channels of the Rhino Rack roof rack and T-load you plan to use the LockRack Universal XL carrier part # LR88FR would be a great option. This would fit the T-slots of the T-load and the roof rack.

  • Recommended Carrier For Pelican 10' "Sit On Top" Style Kayak
    Hello Karen, thanks for reaching out. The Malone SeaWing Kayak # MPG113MD you are using is a decent carrier for more standard kayaks, but I can see how the width of the carrier may not be ideal for the wider "sit on top" style kayaks. I wouldn't necessarily blame the kayak for the incompatibility. Your best option here will be to go with a larger, more adjustable carrier. Something like the LockRack Series-X Universal Watersport Carrier # LR88FR will be a great option. It is adjustable...

  • Lockrack Carrier recommendation for 21.7" and 33" Windsurf Boards
    Hey AR, thanks for reaching out! For your application you need the Lockrack Adjustable Watersport Carrier # LR24VR which can handle up to 2 boards and has a max inner arm width of 41" but can also be reduced down to 21-3/4" so you'll easily be able to accommodate one or both boards depending on what you feel like taking that day. The carrier mentioned above comes with universal mounts that clamp around your crossbars, but this same carrier is available as part # LR88FR which mounts via...

  • Roof Rack and Paddleboard Carrier Recommendation for 2024 Ford Maverick
    Hey Samantha, the Inno roof rack part number # IN47ZV that fits your 2024 Ford Maverick would be a great option for mounting a paddle board carrier to. Then for a paddleboard carrier the LockRack Universal X part # LR88FR would work great to carry two boards. It attaches to the top channel of the Inno crossbars.

  • Roof Kayak Carrier that Can Attach to Overland Discover Rack
    I have a solution for you but the Swagman Exo Aero part # S65145 will not fit the Overland Vehicle Systems Discovery Rack you have. Instead you'd want to go with a carrier that can attach to the T-slots on top of the load bars of your rack like with the Lockrack carrier part # LR88FR.

  • Recommended Roof Rack For A 2014 Subaru Outback Hauling Two 31" Wide Kayaks
    Hey Erik, With two 31" wide kayaks you'll have to go pretty wide on the crossbars to have enough length to accommodate both. I recommend the following roof rack components: TimberLine Towers for Yakima Crossbars # Y33TR HD Bar SL Adapter # Y03541 Yakima HD Crossbars - 68" Long # Y01158 I'd then switch from the clamp-mount LockRack carrier # LR24VR to the channel-mount version # LR88FR. This would allow you to mount the carriers into the track on top of the crossbars for a super easy...

  • Kayak Carrier That Can Fit Werner Truck Ladder Rack
    I have a solution for you but the load bars of your Werner truck rack are too wide for the Inno carrier part # INA446 to fit. Since the bars of your rack have channels on top of them you could use the LockRack Universal X carrier part # LR88FR which is designed to attach to top channels like what you have.

  • Can Yakima Overhaul HD Ladder Rack Fit 2019 Ford Ranger and Canoe Carrier
    Howdy Dave! So the Yakima OverHaul HD ladder rack part numbers # Y01152-57 is a fit for your 2019 Ford Ranger, it does have a height setting that we know is taller than your cab and would do a great job carrying a canoe even though we haven't had the chance to put one on your exact setup. Then for a canoe carrier you would want to go with one that can attach to the top channels of the Overhaul which for that the LockRack par # LR88FR would be a great option for that.

  • Recommended Roof Rack For A 2022 Toyota Tundra
    The Lockrack Watersport Carrier Carrier # LR88FR will work with virtually any crossbar with a top channel. For your 2022 Toyota Tundra I recommend going with a Thule Aero Bar roof rack. The Thule roof racks are high quality and easy to assemble. The top channel on the Thule crossbars uses a two piece rubber strip which will help to reduce road noise when using the Lockrack Carrier. For your 2022 Tundra you will need the following parts: Fit Kit for Thule Evo Clamp and Edge Clamp Roof Rack...

  • Looking For Kayak Rack For 2017 Nissan Frontier That Fits With Tonneau Cover
    Hello Dennie, thanks for getting in touch. We may have a kayak rack option that fits with your tonneau cover, but fitment will completely depend on what tonneau cover you have. If the tonneau covers the bed rails, there is really no way to attach a rack to the bed. If your tonneau cover sits fully inside the bed rails, it is possible to add a rack. Let me know what kind of tonneau you have. Hopefully it is the "inside bed rails" kind. If your tonneau is inside the bed rails, the best...

  • Recommended Roof Rack and Kayak Carrier for a 2017 Subaru Forrester
    Cindi, for your 2017 Subaru Forrester you're just going to need to add a set of crossbars like # Y48UV if you have factory bars or # Y27TB if you have a slick roof. Form here you can add two of the Rhino-Rack Kayak Roof Rack w/ Tie-Downs # S512 to carry your two kayaks. These kayak carriers have a weight capacity of 99 lbs, so you're going to want to make sure that you're not overloading the carrier/roof.

  • Recommended Saddle-Style Kayak Carrier for Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars
    Hey Peter, thanks for reaching out! I really like the LockRack Series-X # LR88FR because it mounts in the channels and makes it much easier to secure your kayak since the arms "clamp" and lock the kayak into place. The only other thing that's recommended is bow/stern tie-downs like the Yakima Kit # Y04031 to keep the front and back of your kayak from shifting at all. You'll need the Series-X and a set of tie-downs for each boat you're carrying. Please note that at minimum the Series-X...
