Question:

I have a 2012 Ford F-150 supercab. I have to carry two tandem kayaks that are 13.5’ long and 32” wide. Can I pair this with something to store them diagonally like the Thule kayak supports or something? Not sure what would attach well to it.

The Darby Hitch Extender and Crossbar kit part # DTA944-968-924 comes with a foam block and straps to secure one kayak. For a second foam block you'd could use the Malone foam block # MPG172 and then for straps you'd want the part # TH521. You'll need a quantity of two of the strap kits since the Darby does not include any.
