Question:
I want to carry two kayaks on the roof of my 2020 Toyota Tundra. What parts would I need? I have the crew cab.

Expert Reply:
Because they're a lot more quiet than square or round profile crossbars, I'd recommend a roof rack with aero-style crossbars. I really like the quality and the ease of use provided by the Yakima JetStream roof rack, which can be assembled from the following parts:
• JetStream 60 Inch Aero-Style crossbars part # Y00426
• BaseLine roof rack towers, part # Y28TR
• Vehicle specific fit kit # Y06121
• Vehicle specific fit kit # Y06129
A lock kit is available separately as part # Y07204
To actually carry the kayaks, I'd recommend the etrailer J-style kayak carrier, part # e98878. The carrier includes the bow/stern tie downs, the straps that attach the kayaks to the crossbars, and the anchors that can be shut in the vehicle hood and tailgate to provide a convenient attachment point for the bow/stern tie downs.
