Question:

Hello, I was wondering if I could equip my 2015 Subaru Forester with a roof rack that can carry a 20foot extension ladder or a 20foot and 14foot extension ladder? I cant find much information but thought Id ask the experts. Thanks!

Expert Reply:

For your 2015 Subaru Forester that has raised rails that run from front to back the Malone SteelTop Roof Rack part # MPG203 has been confirmed as a fit and would work well for your vehicle.

For load stops for the ladders the part # TH503 would be recommended and then for straps # 34413 for ratchet straps.

If your ladders will be 20 feet long on the roof of your vehicle you will need to check your local DOT for regulations on carrying an item that long.
