Question:
We need to know exactly what we need to carry our 2 Kayaks

Expert Reply:
First thing you need for your 2013 Ford Explorer to carry kayaks is a roof rack with crossbars that run from one side to the other (if you do not have them already), for that you would want the Evo Raised Rail Feet # TH710401, 60" WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711520, as well as locks # TH450400. I attached an install video for this rack for you to check out as well.
Once that rack is installed the Thule Stacker part # TH830 would fit and work well to carry 2 kayaks.
This rack would also fit the factory crossbars of your vehicle if you had them.
