Question:

I have a 2012 Ram 2500 Mega Cab with a truck cap . I need to carry two 13’ Kayaks while hauling a travel trailer. The only way that I can see doing this is to get the Rhino rack for my cab and also purchase the Rhino rack for my A.R.E. Truck cap due to the length of the kayaks. Will the Thule Hullaport “J” style kayak carrier fit the Rhino rack Vortex bars? Thanks

Expert Reply:

Yes. The Thule Hull-A-Port Kayak Carrier w/Tie-Downs - J-Style - Fixed - Side Loading # TH834 will fit on Rhino Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars like the # RRVA137B, but you'll need 1 of these for each kayak. The Hull-A-Port gives you the ability to carry boats that weigh up to 75-lbs.

You can also use the Hull-A-Port # TH849000 but it will mount in the T-slot channels instead of clamping around the bars. I've linked some review videos of these kayak carriers for you to check out as well.
