How To Carry Kayaks On Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack with Backbone Mounting System

Updated 04/01/2021 | Published 03/30/2021

Question:

I currently have the Rhino rack backbone system on my 2019 Jeep wrangler. I want to install two Thule Hullavators on it. What length and type of crossbars do I need for it? Each kayak weighs 70 lbs.

I do have an option for you but there would be no way to use the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack or Backbone Mounting System with the Thule Hullavator part # th898. The best option to carry kayaks would be to first install Rhino-Rack Accessory Bars like part # RR43120B and then a carrier like the Rhino-Rack J-Style Kayak Carrier part # S512.
