Question:

I have 2 kayacks i want to mount on this rack. they are 34 inches wide. Will they fit across the width of this rack? I know the dimensions say 76 inches wise but is that from inside each side rail? Thanks!

Yes, your 34" kayaks will both easily fit on top of the Buyers Products Over-The-Cab Truck Bed Ladder Rack # 3371501400 for your 2016 Ram 1500. This is compatible with truck beds that are 66" - 76" wide with the maximum width of the entire unit being 76-3/8" (which would be the crossbars). Since that's over 8" more than the width of both your kayaks you don't have anything to worry about laying them side by side.

I believe the 76" dimension taken in the review video was for usable crossbar space.
