Question:

I have a 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the Black and chrome track, flush mounted rails that run front to back and I need a roof rack as well as a kayak rack that can carry 2 Wilderness Pungo 120 kayaks that are 12 foot long 29 inch width and 49 lbs each. I think for the roof rack I am interested in this one: 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Roof Rack by Thule Roof Rack Includes: Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack - Fixed Mounting Points/Flush, Factory Side Rails - Aluminum - Silver Fit Kit for Thule Podium-Style Roof Rack Feet - 3142 Part Numbers: TH7602-TH7602,THKIT3142 But am curious if this Kayak rack # TH830 can accommodate my kayaks. and if not which Thule Kayak rack can? thank you

Expert Reply:

The Thule AeroBlade Edge Roof Rack, parts # TH7602-TH7602, and # THKIT3142, will look great on your 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee. While it is compatible with the Stacker # TH830, the Stacker can only accommodate kayaks up to 10' long max so we recommend going with the Hull-A-Port Aero # TH849000 instead.

If you'd like to stick with a post-style carrier then the Rhino-Rack Nautic Stack Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs # RRS520 will work with your setup.
