Expert Reply:

Although there are no direct replacements for the J-style carriers that come with the Malone EcoLight Sport Trailer # MAL93FR, I do have a solution for you. For an extra carrier, I recommend the Malone J-Pro2 Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs - J-Style # MPG117MD. These J-style cradles are also used on the Malone MicroSport # MPG461G2. The MicroSport and the EcoLight have the same 1-1/4" crossbars so the J-Pro2 will also fit on your EcoLight.

I have attached an image showing these installed on the MicroSport for your reference.

Are you able to buy longer cross bars for the Ecolight Malone kayak trailer?

@John yes, you can use the 78" # MPG4001.

@RobinH ok, will that allow you to fit another set of J racks so it will carry three kayaks instead of two?

@John if you're referring to the ones on there already, yes you could. Their mounting footprint is pretty small and you're gaining another 20" of bar space.
