Question:

Hi, Im hoping this Roof Rack will work for a 2021 Pacifica Mini-Van. I have 2 Kayaks to carry on it. It looks like I need the TH848 Carrier along with these extras, TH521 and y04031. Is this correct? It has factory installed roof rails. Could I add another carrier if I want to carry 3 Kayaks? Thank you,

Helpful Expert Reply:

It sounds like you've already got a complete factory roof rack system, and the Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs - J-Style or Post Style - Folding - 1 or 2 Kayaks # Y04073 will fit on most factory crossbars. The JayLow will work for 2 kayaks and as you've noted, you'll just need another JayLow if you want to carry a 3rd kayak. This wouldn't be an issue assuming that you've got enough crossbar space on your roof for 3 kayaks.

You can also use the # TH521 or the # Y04031, but you won't need both of them; just one or the other.
